INSIDER SECRET: One of the best perks offered by both the personal and business Platinum cards is access to Centurion Lounges, some of the best lounges in the world.

When it comes to airport lounges, it’s hard to beat the quality of Amex’s Global Lounge Collection. And even better, American Express continues to add to the network at a steady pace. By the end of 2020, Amex will add six lounges to the collection in highly-trafficked airports like Denver, Los Angeles and London Heathrow.

And getting access to these and other Centurion Lounges around the world is easier than you might think.

If your home airport has (or is soon getting) a Centurion Lounge, or if you frequently connect through an airport with a Centurion Lounge, having The Platinum Card® from American Express or The Business Platinum Card® from American Express is a wise choice. Here’s why:

Gain access to Centurion Lounges with the Amex Platinum cards

The Platinum Card® from American Express and The Business Platinum Card® from American Express cardholders receive access to Centurion Lounges, which are some of the highest-quality lounges on Earth.

If you don’t know much about Centurion Lounges, check this post out to learn more. At these lounges, you can enjoy terrific perks like tasty, buffet-style meals and premium cocktails. Cardholders can bring along two guests for free to experience the benefits, too.

Currently, there are Centurion Lounges in the following nine airports:

• Dallas (DFW)
• Hong Kong (HKG)
• Houston (IAH)
• Las Vegas (LAS)
• Miami (MIA)
• New York (LGA)
• Philadelphia (PHL)
• San Francisco (SFO)
• Seattle (SEA)

By the end of 2020, there will be Centurion Lounges in these airports as well:

• Charlotte (CLT)
• Denver (DEN)
• Phoenix (PHX)
• London Heathrow (LHR)
• Los Angeles (LAX)
• New York (JFK)

So if you live in any of these cities, it’s a great time to add either the personal or business Amex Platinum card to your wallet.

I’ve been an Amex Business Platinum cardholder for over three years and have gotten thousands of dollars of value from the card’s perks, like access to Amex Fine Hotels & Resorts not to mention the Amex Membership Rewards points I’ve earned and used for travel. I’ve also had the opportunity to visit the Centurion Lounges in Hong Kong, Seattle, and Las Vegas — all of which were incredible.
