Not even a Chase Sapphire lounge could get me to go back to Las Vegas 😉

Are they actually serving champagne, or is it "champagne" in the American sense that even $6 André is considered champagne?

Menu shows Gosset, so real champagne. Might be the only cc lounge doing that.

87 seats is pretty small. What is the capacity of the AMEX lounge in LV?

464 is the maximum after they increased the size a few years ago. Anecdotally, there's almost always a waitlist/line.

The regular lounge bar only serves prosecco. I'd be shocked if they serve champagne for free long-term.

I guess it makes sense to have the Lounge in T1, given the Amex and CapOne Lounges are in T3. But not sure I'd enjoy the Allegiant and Southwest masses, and there's no way I'd go over the T1 to use this lounge if flying out to T3.

Why in the Southwest Terminal C? The CapOne lounge in D is better located for DA AA and UA.

Love that others already asked and answered whether there is actually Champagne here. Most Americans don’t know or care about the difference between Champagne and Prosecco (not to mention other sparkling wines), which is so disappointing. Let’s hope the proper bubbles stick. But this will be absolutely mobbed in short order.

The Chase Sapphire lounge IAD which doubles as the Etihad lounge is supposed to offer champagne and I’ve managed to get it there once or twice, but more often than not it’s “temporarily out of stock” and they offer prosecco instead. That never happened before Chase got involved when the lounge was reserved for Etihad pax.

It took Chase years to open the LAS lounge and it only has 87 seats??

As others have mentioned, the significantly larger Amex LAS lounge is regularly overrun with lines / waitlists and this will be even worse. Likely borderline unusable. Or maybe they wanted a lottery to get in to align with the Vegas gambling theme??

If they could not get any additional space, they should have done something like the Amex Sidecar concept, where guests can show up 90 minutes before their flight to get a couple of quick drinks and food to increase throughput of such a small space.

Have been there 3 times in the past month with no line. So certainly YMMV.

The D gates aren't T3. The majority of flights out of D are DL and AA which are T1. I'm sure that no one will be coming from T3 but I would also doubt many of the DL/AA crowd will head over because the location is a walk from pretty much everywhere. It's easier for even most WN flyers to get to the CapOne and Amex lounges than this one, halfway down the concourse between security and the tram stop in C vs. tram to d and right by the top of the escalators for CapONe and Amex.

With 87 seats, no Priority Pass holders will get in.

Lucky...speaking of Chase and the CSR, have you noticed that the 2cpp points boost is no longer showing/offered for select J/F airline bookings through chase travel?

Was this a temporary/targeted benefit?

Unless you’re doing something ultra-premium with highly restricted entry requirements, what is the point of putting an 87-seat lounge in one of the top-10 busiest airports in the country?

Not sure what is more ridiculous at LAS, the AmEx Centurion Lounge or the people waiting in line.

Bigger story is their announced closure of the 3-year old Chase Lounge at HKG.

87 is crazy. I guess it makes sense with everyone canceling

Visited for an hour yesterday (12/4) and the lounge is beautiful! The service was incredible. Every staff person was attentive, friendly, and efficient. Extremely well run for just the second day after opening. There was a waitlist but received text to enter less in than 10 minutes. Used CSR for entry.
