by Zach Griff, Senior Reporter
[TPG | Hero Image] American Express was the first major credit card issuer to get into the airport lounge game back in 2013, and what a journey itâs been. From its [first outpost in Las Vegas]( to its most recent one that just opened in the [worldâs busiest airport (Atlanta),]( the Centurion Lounge network definitely sets a high bar. At this point, Iâve visited [every single Centurion Lounge]( in the country, and some are better than others. The star of the show is hands-down the [new Atlanta outpost]( which measures a whopping 26,000 square feet and offers two beautiful outdoor terraces and even a signature whiskey bar. Other favorites include the [newly relocated Seattle Centurion Lounge]( as well as the two outposts in New York: one at [John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK)]( and the other at [LaGuardia Airport (LGA)](. The best news? Amex isnât resting on its laurels, with plans to open new spaces in [Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport (DCA)]( and [Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR)]( in the coming months. Youâll catch all the details in our [complete guide to Centurion Lounge access](. If you want to visit a Centurion Lounge before your flight, youâll need to carry the right Amex card. That typically means holding either [The Platinum Card® from American Express]( or [The Business Platinum Card® from American Express]( though other cards also offer complimentary access. Don't have one of those cards? Right now, new cardmembers of the Business Platinum can [earn an elevated offer of 150,000 Amex bonus points]( when they spend $20,000 in the first three months of card membership. If you donât yet have the Amex Platinum, [check out CardMatch]( â some TPG readers have been targeted with elevated welcome offers that are double the publicly available offers.
