The latter being a constant thorn in the eyes of members as they’re often turned away due to constant overcrowding. Unfortunately Dallas is one of these airports where American Airlines currently doesn’t operate a First Class Flagship Lounge for their First Class, Executive Platinum and oneWorld Emerald Members so the Amex Centurion Lounge has always been the best option.Īmex currently has Centurion Lounges in Dallas, Houston, Las Vegas, Miami, New York LaGuardia, Philadelphia, San Francisco, and Seattle. Dallas is a huge airport in a rich city where an Amex Platinum or even a Centurion isn’t something rare. The new lounge is 12,500 square feet in size which is roughly a quarter larger then previously, however the old lounge was always packed to capacity so I’m not sure that it’ll be a huge improvement in terms of the overcrowding issue. I’m glad that the new facility has opened on schedule to provide Amex car members with value for their annual fee again. The Centurion Club will operate as a private members’ club strictly for the use of its members and their invited guests. This is the interior of the new lounge as per the photos provided by them:Ĭlosing that previous Centurion Lounge for large scale maintenance before opening the new one was a horrible decision and then letting it go on for weeks, only to tell members on the day it’s supposed to re-open that it will be closed permanently wasn’t the best choice. Ideally located to the west of St Albans, Centurion Club will provide its members with a golfing experience of unrivalled quality and a modern relaxed, comfortable ambiance. These changes do not impact Centurion Card from American Express cardholders. You can access the Facebook post of Dallas Ft. 50 per adult 30 per child between 2 to 17 years old Children under 2 years old can enter for no cost if the accompanying parent/guardian can provide a lap infant boarding pass or proof of age. The Lounge can be reached from any other terminal via the Skylink train. The Lounge is located in Terminal D, across from Gate D12, on the mezzanine. You can access the American Express Centurion Lounge website here with more details about the new facility. Access to the Centurion Lounges is one of the key benefits of both The Platinum Card from American Express (see rates and fees) and The Business Platinum Card from American Express (see rates. We do this in order to ensure the safety and comfort of our guests.Now the new Centurion Lounge is ready and opened on schedule: “Access is subject to space availability and we reserve the right to modify house rules without notice, also we have posted our capacity constraint process at the entrance to help alleviate any inconvenience. This is happening almost every day (see sign above).Ĭlearly just nuts so I reached out to Amex on twitter about this and was told the following:

Further I was told the capacity controls for the lounge could result in your NOT getting access the day of departure either. I was told that the lounge is now a departing flights ONLY lounge (before you could visit on a same day arrival ticket).

Side note: Amex has changed how access to the Centurion.
#CENTURION CLUB DALLAS UPGRADE#
I went to review the lounge yesterday and was denied access to the club. Id also scored an upgrade with my often-useless 500-mile certificates, for the DFW-DCA segment. You are welcome to bring your food back here fyi and this can be a nice place to dine. There is also a large conference table by the computer area. Also along the back wall are new seats that are very similar to those found in the LGA Centurion club. So they built one across the hall from the old one. The club computers and printer is also located back here but during my visit they were not working. Too many users with expensive Amex Platinum cards, costing $450-$550 per year in membership fees, were wanting to access the lounge. It was the “gold” standard, if you will, for all other lounges to be compared.īut the problem was that it was too good. It put all other domestic US lounges to shame in both service, amenities and perks. The old Dallas Amex DFW Centurion Lounge was a total game changer in the travel space.
