Departure Lounge

I have used Departur Lounge for two vacations recently. Laura and her team have done an excellent job throughout the whole process. She even was able to help us change a trip at the literal last minute due to a hurricane! I would highly recommend her and her team

Great travel agency. I think the time where online search has really replaced travel agencies, it's really nice to find a hidden gem.

I only come here if I can get one of the booths in the back. They're dark and perfect for a small quiet private place to study on your laptop.

My partner and I were visiting his family and we always wanted to go and experience an evening at Departure Lounge. From the moment we stepped out of the elevator on the 15th floor our evening began with the great decor and the warm welcome from the staff. We got our cocktails and stepped out on the patio and enjoyed the skyline of the city. There were eight in our party and we had a Beautiful booth. We decided to just get small plates (a lot) and every plate was just an unbelievable experience from presentation to taste. The service was also excellent. Big shout out to the chef, amazing!!!!!

Departure lounge has a great atmosphere, I bring my laptop here alot to work. Order their chocolate chip cookie and ask for it to be warmed up; delicious. They also have a great wine selection.

This is a review for the travel agency not the wine bar. I contacted and was assigned a travel agent who I will not name. She had us meet at whole foods because they were closed on sunday. We made the 40 min drive just to tell us they only book those for high end resorts only. So if your looking for a down to earth vacation. Look elseware

This would be the 6th or 7th time at Departure Lounge. A great location to wait for the bus. The bar woman kicked me out because she didn't like my Arizona drivers license. I'm not angry, but I've tended bar before; If i thought I was holding a fake ID, I'd keep it and call the police. This bar woman obviously didn't know the local laws. All others have been great here.

Good atmosphere. Delicious bites. Nice wine selection.

Easily the best wine bar in Austin... and if you're looking for luxury travel services in the area, look no further.

I place to relax and unwind from a busy day. I park so close, lucky, and started the weekend.

Plenty of seats to go around. Modern chairs and couches provide close quarters to talk and chat. Comfy and cozy is the word.
Order a flight and depart from the work day. The large windows offer plenty of hustle and bustle trying to forget...
Views of the city gear up for whatever reason you may want to paint.
