As great as the Centurion Lounges are, they leave a lot to be desired when they are too full.Īmerican Express launched the Centurion Lounges back in 2013 with their first location in Las Vegas (LAS), which has since undergone a significant expansion. Rather than walking to a lounge and hoping for the best, this new display in the Amex app can easily save you a trip across the airport for a lounge visit only to find out that the lounge is full. American Express says they hope to expand this feature to the Centurion Studio partner locations like Escape Lounges – including our hometown favorite, the Escape Lounge MSP – in the coming months. This new feature is already operational at all 15 Centurion Lounges in the U.S. as well as in London and Hong Kong. If you've got the Platinum Card® from American Express, you can get into Centurion Lounges and 1,300-plus other lounges worldwide, so odds are there's another lounge that's available.

Or, you could simply decide to head to a different lounge. If you see the “almost full” designation, you will likely be placed on a waitlist to return at a later time once you arrive at the reception area of the Centurion Lounge.
