We had to clear a table to have access to it. Everything, except the bar, is self serve. The hot items were good. A toaster is available to toast English muffin and bagels. They have a great coffee machine for self serve lattes and the like. It's a good spot for a long layover. But there is room for improvement.

Definitely worth a visit if you are eligible for access. A huge step above the Admiral's Club…read morewhich is right next door. On this visit we had the pleasure of experiencing Flagship First dining which is a private, full-service restaurant within the Flagship Lounge. Flagship First dining exists only in Miami and DFW. The LAX Flagship First dining remains closed. Food and beverage options in Flagship First are definitely a step above the standard Flagship Lounge offerings including Laurent-Perrier Grand Siecle champagne! Many years ago, Flagship First had Krug champagne but sadly no more. The decor inside is classy and chic and service is impeccable and attentive. I wanted to try something small since I knew the flight would have a meal as well. I tried the crab cake which was excellent and the perfect size for a snack. Of course, I had the Laurent-Perrier champagne as well - truly outstanding! For dessert I had the poached pear which was delightful! I also had the Irish coffee, but this was much worse than the one I had experienced in DFW. There was neither a cinnamon stick nor whipped cream because they were apparently out of both. Oh well. First world problems! Anyway, definitely visit the Flagship Lounge if you are able and definitely, definitely try Flagship First dining if you get the chance!

It's an airport lounge! It's great, just SUPER crowded…read more My general choice for lounge goes from: Basic Airline - Centurion - Airline First Class Lounge. This is because the basic lounge has super basic food, and is usually fairly crowded. While AMEX is decent food but is WAY more crowded, and the first class lounge has a mix of food options but it's usually easy to find a space to sit in. For this experience, the lounge was good, I had a super small table shared by two of us, only one of us could use our laptop and even then, I was afraid that the drinks could tip at any moment and make it an ex-laptop. Service was good, they picked up empty dishes and cups with decent frequency, though the food options weren't amazing, though they had two food bars, one in the back, which were mostly cold options while the front one, with the 5+ minute line had hot food items.

Got to the airport at 3:30 for a 715 P.M. flight. You know we have to board at 6:25 so I get to the Century and lounge. It's 340 and they told me I need to come back at 4:15. I can only be there three hours before the departure time. You don't take him to consideration the time that you have to board. The place was empty. If it was full. I understand. They still required us to come back in 30 minutes. Tell you what went to the admirals club. They were happy to see us treated us with kindness. Not like they were doing us a favor. Quite frankly I always said it was so worth it for the travel benefits. But the last four times I've been to the lounge in different cities. There has been a weightless and an impossibility to sit down. Holding spots for Black card members, which is understandable. But the place and you have 10 tables available for more that you have for those Black card members. You really need to reassess that happened to us in Seattle. Is it worth it? When it's packed the ambulance horrible when it is not and you get there and they don't let you know. It's also horrible. There's no ambience to it.

During our recent visit, it looked fresh and modern, consistent with other relatively recently updated Sky Clubs around the country. This is the only Sky Club in MIA. It's located in the H-J Connector in the South Terminal. Delta mainly operates out of the H gates in Concourse H. From the boarding area, you have to take an elevator or stairs up to Level 4 to enter the Sky Club. Foodwise, I enjoyed the mojo pork, and black beans and rice, as well as a quinoa wrap and warm chocolate chip cookies. Everything was delicious. I liked the touches of Latin cuisine since this is Miami. At the bar, the Bloody Marys were terrific. Overall, the lounge was spacious and seating was comfortable, and service was great (hostess, food staff, bartender).

There are plenty of seating and they have coffee and Coke machines throughout the lounge. The bathrooms though are small, so there could be a wait. The food was just okay. I went in the morning.

This morning was fresh baked waffles, an egg fish, and chorizo along with yogurt and fruit. In addition, lots of pastries and breads. But like most places, very limited gluten free options outside the yogurt and fruit. It was packed and a little chaotic when I got here but found one seat. It took about 1 1/2 hours for the crowd to thin out. When everyone leaves, it's quiet and pleasant. Shower toiletries are now Go Bigelow instead of Dermatologica.

I've enjoyed the privileges of membership, which mostly is the exceptional level of service provided. The MIA D30 Admirals Club seems to have some nice people working there as well, especially Alexandra at the Check In desk. Unfortunately for Alexandra and her colleagues, the place is run by the miserable Catarena (she refused to provide her last name or any other identifying information and stated "just tell them Catarena in M-I-A Admirals Club"). We were connecting on a flight home via MIA and had some family with us. We went to the club at D15 and hung out there for about 30 minutes. We chose to move over to the D30 club, as our gates were much closer to that lounge. We arrived and my wife did not have her AAdvantage credit card with her. I showed the check in counter at D15 her card on the Citi app and they said it's no problem. We went over to D30 expecting a similar experience...but the polar opposite. Alexandra let me know she needed the Supervisor to make an exception. She didn't think it would be a problem, especially since the D15 club just let us in. Catarena came over with a negative attitude right from the start. It was apparent that she is one of the people who hates doing her job. I explained the situation to her and about how we had just come from the lounge at D15. She said she'd call them to "check" (as if I was lying). She said they don't remember letting us in, and said they let someone in with five kids and no one else so she could do the same. I explained we do not have five kids in the group. I also asked for the name of the person she spoke with. "You have my name, right? YOU asked for MY name, right? That's enough." I asked Catarena if she was going to help us. She refused to answer the question and kept going round and round with no answer and the stupid smirk on her face...you know it...the one terrible people in Customer Service use when they've "won" by upsetting a loyal, repeat patron. Catarena NoLastName finally set me off with her stupid smirk and disingenuous "have a nice day" in the most annoying and condescending voice. I gave her some choice words, wished her a terrible rest of her miserable life, and walked out with my family. Note: this club is the anomaly...it's horrible because they have a worthless Supervisor (Catarena NoLastName) working there...most Admirals Clubs are absolutely phenomenal!

The lounge is nothing to shout about design-wise, but it is functional and convenient to the Avianca gates...right above them. You can see your planes waiting for you.

Seating is ok and there are plenty of electrical outlets.

My visit to the Turkish Lounge in Terminal J at Miami International Airport was truly outstanding…read more The food was incredibly fresh and provided us with a wonderful first taste of what to expect from Turkish cuisine during our upcoming trip. From the tender lamb and flavorful chickpeas to the flavorful couscous, every dish was delicious. The warm coconut curry soup was especially memorable, it comforted and revived me while I was freezing from the airport air conditioning. The ambiance was modern, elegant, and relaxing, making it easy to unwind before our flight. The drinks were expertly mixed, generously served, and complemented the dining experience perfectly. What stood out the most, however, was the exceptional hospitality from the team. A special thank you to Elizabeth Gonzalez, Yanisbel Cinta, Yessica Correa, Oscar Rosa, and Cynthia Fumero. Their genuine smiles, professionalism, and willingness to help made us feel truly welcomed and cared for throughout our visit. I was also impressed by how impeccably clean the lounge remained. The staff continuously cleared used dishes and empty cups, ensuring the space stayed spotless and comfortable for all guests. This was a remarkable lounge experience from start to finish. If this was our introduction to Turkish hospitality, we are even more excited for the journey ahead. Highly recommended!

The restaurant is clean enough, and if you're looking for the 'bud light-ness,' it has the decor. You order from a QR code attached to the table. The fries were some of the worst I've ever had, definitely frozen, weren't even cooked properly so they tasted old and cardboard-y. No salt either. The fried chicken sandwich bun continued to deteriorate as we ate, leaving a pile of chicken on the plate that had fallen out. The only good part of it was the pickles. Don't go here for anything more than a Bud Light, or at least manage your expectations. They had a good bud light on draft (I would hope so lol). Also the sandwich and beer was USD 40.00 which is just outrageous for what you get. This is a last resort airport restaurant in my opinion

The bad: almost no plugs anywhere! Maybe around 10 in the entire lounge and this makes charging your devices difficult. Limited food offerings (ham and cheese sandwiches, packages chips and cookies). The sofa are old and tired looking. The bathroom looks like it's straight from the 70s. No shower. It's also a long walk + train ride from the D terminal. I enjoyed the exercise but if you're pressed for time you might want to skip it.

The South Terminal walkways are covered, well-marked, bilingual signage throughout, escalators and stairs where you need them to move between levels without a maze. You get glimpses of the operational backend from the overpasses (catering trucks, ground crews, the whole logistics chain keeping flights fed and running), which is a small window into how much coordination it takes to keep a hub like this moving. Palm trees around the perimeter keep the South Florida feel even in a purely functional space. Not a luxury experience, doesn't try to be. It's a transit hub that transits people. Four stars for competent infrastructure and low friction, the kind of airport experience where nothing stands out because nothing goes wrong.
