CVG Airport Escape Lounge - Great Food, Great Service, NO WALKING ALLOWED INSIDE

Recently, my wife and I stopped in the Escape Lounge located in Cincinnati/Northern KY airport. The lounge was small, had great food, and friendly staff. However, they had one odd rule that left us scratching our heads. Let me know what you think in the comments.

    It's opened up a bit now. You are allowed to walk around again. 🤣 It's not that big at all but nice enough to grab something quick on departures/arrivals when not flying Delta + no Sky Club. Thanks for the video!

    We’ve gone back in since then and noticed it had opened up. Thought someone was going to pull a Tonya Harding on me for walking around in there. Really strange. This was one of many instances that went overboard during the pandemic in my opinion.

    The club at CVG allows walking around but more basic snacks and such both nice little places to chill out in though. I went to both last time and just lounge hopped bc I had the time

    Good call. Just good for snacks. Of course I eat about 10 bowls of tomato soup so it helps. I did a video review on it last year on the channel as well. It’s a nice space though. More roomy than the escape lounge for sure.

    It was one of the most unwelcoming lounges I’ve ever been to, and I’ve been to a good amount. The food was great. However, the hours are minimal and don’t include Saturdays.

    I will gladly give up my ability to walk for more of those pepperoni stromboli roll things.

    It was really good. I was pleasantly surprised. I probably could have eaten about a dozen of the pepperoni rolls. Thanks for watching!

    Me too. Food was good. It was just awkward. Felt like I was being detained by law enforcement. Good pepperoni rolls though.

    How do I get access without getting a card? I don’t mind paying more than normal but I don’t travel that much to use a card. When I do travel I still want access

    Great question. There are several ways to get in. This is a helpful link that displays all of the ways to access the lounge. Make sure you check all available discounts. I hope this helps. Thanks for watching!

    It’s odd for sure. If it’s unsafe to the point people can’t walk, then maybe it shouldn’t be open. Definitely a consideration.
