But it’s not usually the staff there so that was surprising.

I don’t remember the last time I stopped into a Centurion lounge and didn’t wind up chatting with someone there. It’s funny, I always run into people I know or who know me at Centurion lounges. When I walked in the agent at the desk recognized me - he told me he reads the blog. I visited the Seattle studio earlier in the week. The next Centurion lounge that will open will be Houston.

The full scale American Express Centurion lounges at US airports already open are: It’s a nice space, and there are modest snacks.Īmerican Express wants lounges in major airports and will take smaller spaces when that’s all that’s available - and it’s a concept they’re testing for smaller airports, also. There’s no conference room.īasically it’s the American Express lounge, their design concept and staff. The ‘studio’ concept is different from American Express Centurion lounges, it’s smaller and doesn’t feature extensive food offerings, a bar, a kids room, or a spa. But make no mistake, it’s not a Centurion Lounge if you’ve been to one of those in another U.S.

I definitely prefer it over the Alaska Airlines Boardroom (but no pancake machine) and over the United Club there. Overall it was a nice space, where I enjoyed spending a couple of hours. American Express’ first ‘Centurion Studio’ opened a month ago at Seattle’s international airport, across from gate B3.
