United Airlines just reopened its B West United Club in Denver, completing its lounge renovation project in the Mile High City and offering travelers even more space and amenities in its Rocky Mountain hub.

United Debuts B West Lounge In Denver, Teases Polaris Lounge

Denver International Airport now has a fourth United Club location, as United Airlines unveiled a fully refurbished two-story lounge on the west side of the B Concourse near gate B32. The new space spans 33,000 square feet and can seat over 600 passengers, bringing United’s total club seating capacity in Denver to more than 1,600 across nearly 100,000 square feet of space.

This newest club joins the already-open United Clubs in Concourse A, the east side of Concourse B, and the grab-and-go United Club Fly.

New United Club In Denver

United’s latest Denver lounge embraces a Colorado-inspired theme, reflecting the natural textures, colors, and atmosphere of the Rocky Mountains in the summer. Design elements include locally sourced artwork curated by NINE dot ART, with murals, sculptures, and photography contributed by eight Colorado-based artists. One mural, hand-painted by Denver artist Markus Puskar, celebrates Colorado wildflowers.

Inside, guests will find:

  • Two levels of seating with over 600 total seats
  • Two premium bars
  • Seasonal buffet dining (such as summer vegetable frittata, black bean corn salad, and artichoke bake)
  • High-speed Wi-Fi and wellness rooms
  • Self-scan entry for seamless access

United’s Managing Director of Hospitality Programs, Aaron McMillan, noted, “Passengers will love our newest United Club in Denver, giving them more space, premium amenities and a sense of place during their travel journey.”

More To Come: Polaris Lounge Still Ahead

The new club opening is part of United’s nearly $1 billion investment in Denver since 2021. The carrier now averages over 550 daily departures from DEN and serves more international destinations than any other airline in the city’s history.

And this isn’t the final lounge chapter. United confirmed that design has begun on a new United Polaris Lounge in Denver, which will eventually join Polaris locations in Chicago, Newark, Houston, Los Angeles, San Francisco, and Washington Dulles. This would mark the seventh and final domestic Polaris Lounge in the U.S. once complete (no opening date yet). CEO Scott Kirby spilled the beans on the new Denver Polaris Lounge at a press conference in 2023.

United also plans to open its largest-ever United Club in Houston and a new club in San Francisco in 2026. Earlier this year, it debuted a revamped Polaris lounge in Chicago and an expanded dining room in Newark, plus a new Club Fly in Houston. A new lounge is also coming to Washington Dulles.

CONCLUSION

United’s lounge footprint in Denver continues to grow, with the opening of its most expansive club yet. Whether you’re stopping in for a full meal, a drink, or just a quiet space to work, the new United Club near gate B32 looks great and should help to alleviate crowding in the other lounges. And with a Polaris Lounge (finally) on the way, United continues to invest full premium travel experience at its fastest-growing hub. I’m looking forward to visiting the new lounge.
