Lounge Review: American Airlines Flagship Lounge Chicago O’Hare Terminal 3

We visited this lounge twice within 4 weeks during our U.S. trip in summer 2018. Once in the morning where it was practically empty and once for lunchtime. Even during lunchtime, the lounge felt not too crowded.

Location

American Airline’s Flagship lounge is located between concourses H and K. As the concourses are separated, you can enter the lounge on each of them as the lounge is in an area that connects both concourses.

The Admirals Club and Flagship Lounge share one entrance, and at the reception desk you’ll be sent to the appropriate lounge.

Food & Drinks

During the morning at the buffet you have the choice between scrambled eggs, chocolate croissants, muffins, yogurt and fruits. For lunch, you may choose between sushi, pasta, vegetables, meat, fruits, desserts and even more.

A soft drink machine as well as espresso machines, wine, national and international beers are available from the self-service desks. In terms of food quality, this is definitely one of the better lounges.

Seating options

Other services

Complimentary Wi-Fi, enough power sockets, national and international magazines are available. The showers are really nice in terms of decor and are also very spacious.

Conclusion

American Airlines did a real good job with their flagship lounges, this lounge is perfect to relax, even for a longer time before your flight. It never feels crowded due to its size, with many different rooms to choose from. Tasty fresh food, a big choice of soft drinks, a variety of top shelf spirits and delicious desserts are available. Clean and nice toilets, and big sized showers are embedded within the lounge. Overall a very good lounge, and definitely worth visiting.
