Midway Airport opens new passenger lounge, “The Club MDW Lounge”

Travelers will get their first look at Midway Airport’s first-ever premium lounge this week, as Chicago officials held a grand opening ceremony on Wednesday.

The lounge, known as “Club MDW,” will open Thursday near Gate B1 as part of the airport’s Central Market, according to a press release from the Chicago Department of Aviation.

According to CDA officials, access to the lounge will be available via a day pass, which can be purchased for $50. Passes are also available via a variety of platforms, including Priority Pass and LoungeKey.

The lounge has a capacity of nearly 100 people according to officials, and will be open 4 a.m. to 10 p.m., according to the press release.

Beers from Revolution Brewing and Two Brothers will be available at the bar in the lounge, along with locally sourced menu items, according to officials.
