Practical tips for working out at the airport hotel
Arrive early if you need to use the gym before a flight — TWA Fitness is open around the clock, but class times and peak busy windows can affect availability. If you plan to use Peloton bikes or attend a class, ask the front desk about sign-up procedures.
If you’re a Daytripper guest, confirm the Daytripper pass hours and that your purchased block includes fitness access. Also note hotel policies (cashless transactions, incidental holds) so your workout plans aren’t interrupted at check-in.
- Call ahead to confirm class schedules and bike availability
- If using Daytripper, verify your pass length and inclusions (fitness access listed as complimentary for Daytripper bookings)
- Bring workout essentials—some specialty items or classes may have limited equipment
| Before you go | Ask the hotel |
|---|---|
| Class or Peloton use | Do classes require sign-up or fee? |
| Daytripper pass | Does it include gym access for the full booked time? |
| Locker use | Are lockers assigned or first-come? |
