American Express plans to open a Centurion Lounge at the Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport (ATL). The new lounge is slated for a 2023 opening, and is touted to be the largest in the Centurion Network, with approximately 26,000 square feet and will feature a range of amenities.
Eligible card members can enjoy access to multiple outdoor areas, including a garden terrace and open tarmac views, a first for a Centurion Lounge. The lounge will feature modern design influenced by the city’s local landscape and culture. Members can enjoy a range of locally inspired beverage and dining selections, including a bourbon bar, curated by a local chef and Centurion Lounge mixologist Jim Meehan. Additional amenities specific to the Centurion Lounge in Atlanta will be announced closer to opening.
Located between domestic and international terminals in Concourse E, the new lounge will be accessible from every terminal through The Plane Train or by walking along the Transportation Mall. The lounge will also host travel essentials that are exclusive to card members, such as private telephone rooms, shower suites, Wi-Fi and private noise-buffering workspaces, among others.
Lounge access continues to be a leading benefit for consumers. A recent Amex Trendex survey revealed that 60 percent of respondents agreed that they like to get to the airport early so they can enjoy the airport lounge. The Centurion Lounge at ATL is the latest addition to the American Express Centurion Network following its newest locations at London Heathrow (LHR) and New York’s LaGuardia Airport (LGA). American Express also has plans to open a new lounge at the Reagan National Airport (DCA) in Washington, D.C. and continues to enhance its existing locations, with expansions in San Francisco International Airport (SFO) and Seattle-Tacoma Airport (SEA) and the newly opened wellness space in Houston’s George Bush Intercontinental Airport (IAH) in partnership with mental wellness brand Calm.
