We’re seeing credit card issuers invest in airport lounges like never before, including Amex Centurion Lounges, Capital One Lounges, and Chase Sapphire Lounges. Chase in particular has been doing an impressive job with the pace at which it’s opening lounges.
Over three years ago, we learned how a Chase Sapphire Lounge would be coming to DFW. There’s now an update, as this lounge is open as of today, and it looks quite special, and like it might be one of the best in the network. I can’t wait to check it out!
Basics of the new Chase Sapphire Lounge DFW
Today (Thursday, July 16, 2026), a Chase Sapphire Lounge is opening at Dallas Fort Worth Airport (DFW). The lounge is located in Terminal D, near gate D25, above the concourse (all terminals at the airport are connected airside). The lounge is open daily from 5AM until 10PM.
The split-level lounge is roughly 18,000 square feet, so it’s one of the larger locations in the network, just slightly smaller than the locations in New York LaGuardia (LGA) and Philadelphia (PHL).
The Chase Sapphire Lounge DFW is described as capturing “the vibrant duality of Dallas and Fort Worth,” “blending modern sophistication with western heritage into every thoughtfully designed detail.”
In terms of amenities, the lounge features:
- A dedicated whiskey lounge, with guided pairings and a custom barrel selection
- Chef-curated dining from Encina (a Bishop Arts District restaurant), with local beverage partnerships including Fort Worth’s Cherry Coffee
- A dedicated wellness zone with Face Haus facials, shower rooms, and resting pods
- A signature bar with a wine list from Parcelle, along with signature and regionally inspired cocktails
- Flexible working spaces with varied seating, movable laptop tables, and sapphire-blue tiled fireplace
- Peloton stretches and meditations available on guests’ phones and tablets, which will be rolling out to all lounges
- A kids room and private nursing room
Below you can find some pictures that Chase has shared of the new lounge. With this lounge now opening, that means the two Chase Sapphire Lounges officially in the pipeline are in Los Angeles (LAX) and Miami (MIA).
