Club LAS Concourse D

I have a connection in LAS and was wondering can I go from Southwest Concourse B/C to Concourse D by the Juice Express to visit the Club LAS? If so can I do this without re-clearing security. About how long will it take? If I do have to exit and re-clear security then it would not be worth my time.

Thanks

I was at the UA Club yesterday in concourse D before my WN flight which left from concourse C. You should take the train back towards baggage claim and concourses B/C. Then upon leaving the train, you will need to find a TSA officer to open the glass door leading to the B/C terminals. I showed them my UA gate pass and WN boarding pass and they opened the door for me. Not sure why C/ B concourses are not automatically connected to D/E, especially as the food offerings are so much better in D than C.

Thanks Laguna Beach.

Occasionally the glass door is open and nobody is around it.

I suspect it has to do with keeping the concourses segregated. If there's a terminal dump in A/B/C, they'd have to dump D and now T3. In other words, the entire airport might have to be emptied out...and that would really, really suck.

So, SEA and other major airports are allowed to have all concourses connected, but LAS isn't. I've always thought that LAS suffers from extremely poor planning. Over the years, LAS has gone through periods where it's bursting at the seams and others, like now, where entire sets of gates are closed or severely underutilized.
