About

Ever want to step into a "Jetsons" cartoon? You can do it at Encounter, where the theme is ultra '60s Space Age.

Blast off in the swingin' rocket elevators, which take you into the saucer-shaped bar/restaurant. Besides the 360-degree panoramic view, you'll feel as if you've stepped into a giant lava lamp with orange and purple lighting to enhance the curved futuristic bar and seating. Have dinner or partake in cocktail delights such as the Electric Barbarella.

You'll find people of all types here, from weary travelers waiting for their flight to local hipsters who know that the ambiance is worth fighting the traffic around this busy airport. "Jetsons" attire is optional.
