Terminal 4, Ontario International Airport, California, US
Introduction
This is my review of the Aspire Lounge in Terminal 4 of Ontario International Airport.
Ontario is a great little airport, and perfectly located if you need an airport east of Los Angeles and want to avoid the traffic of LAX!
It has great connections to the American, Delta, United, Jet Blue and Alaska hubs – such a Phoenix, Dallas, San Francisco and Seattle.

The lounge is open daily from 04:00 to 18:00 (apart from Fridays when it closes at 17:00).
Entry Conditions
- If you are a Priority Pass member you have access.
- If you are an American Express Platinum Card you have access

- Apparently flying Business Class with certain airlines also gets you into the lounge
At around £40 per head, it is possible to buy access.
How to Get There
This lounge is super easy to find, turn left out of security and head towards Gates 411 to 413.
You can’t miss the entrance to the lounge on the right!
Layout
This is a pretty small lounge, and the layout is fairly small.
Next to the bar and food area, there is some cafe seating.
There is the usual casual seating, overlooking the apron of the airport.
There is also some high tables to work from – but again it’s all pretty small.
And that is basically it!
Food and Drink
Drinks
For tea, coffee and soft drinks you’ll find all these in the self-service area.
If you fancy something stronger, there is a bar. Certain wines (Chardonay and Cabo), beers (Coors Lite and Muller Lite) and even a a Brut were free – and even some cocktails. However, if you want something more adventurous – you’ll need to pay for it.
Food
The food range was I guess OK, but by quality standards pretty poor.
I was there around 09:00, which was breakfast time. There were some bagels, cereal, a pancake machine, and a few other bits.
However, nothing was topped up, and some of the cooked items looked like had been untouched since the lounge opened at 6am!
Wifi
Wifi in the lounge worked great for me. In didn’t experience any problems.
Showers
There are no showers in this lounge – and in fact there is a single toilet, which wasn’t the nicest!
Conclusion
All in all, this is a decent lounge – and unusual to have given the modest size of Ontario Airport. With that said, I was glad it was there, as it was a nice haven to visit for a couple of hours before my (delayed) flight!
