Traveling can be hectic and stressful, but having access to an airport lounge can make your entire travel experience much better, especially with American Express lounges.

There are international American Express Centurion Lounges located in 14 locations in 7 countries, and offer perks like complimentary food and drink options, charging stations, business centers, dedicated Wi-Fi, and more!

In this post, we outline a complete list of all of the international American Express Centurion Lounges, including detailed information on exact airport locations, hours, and general amenities.

American Express Centurion Lounge Eligibility

In order to access an American Express Lounge, you’ll either need to have either The Platinum Card® from American Express, The Business Platinum Card® from American Express, Delta SkyMiles® Reserve American Express Card (when you book your Delta flight with your Delta Reserve card), Delta SkyMiles® Reserve Business American Express Card (when you book your Delta flight with your Delta Reserve Business card), or the Centurion® Card from American Express.

Individuals must present a valid card and boarding pass with a reservation for same-day travel on any carrier.

Be aware that beginning in February 2023, those who hold the Amex Platinum card and the Amex Business Platinum card will no longer receive complimentary access for their guests. The fee to enter will be $50 per adult or $30 per child between 2 and 17. You can reinstate complimentary guest access by spending $75,000 on your card in a given year.

Hot Tip: Check to see if you’re eligible for a welcome bonus offer of up to 125k (or 150k) points with the Amex Platinum. The current public offer is 80,000 points. (This targeted offer was independently researched and may not be available to all applicants.)

Lounge Guest Policy

  • Amex Platinum card and Amex Business Platinum cardmembers may enter with up to 2 complimentary guests if they have spent $75,000 in eligible purchases in a calendar year. Otherwise, a guest day pass can be purchased for $50 per adult or $30 per child between the ages of 2 and 17.
  • Centurion cardmembers may enter with up to 2 guests or immediate family (spouse or domestic partner, and children under 18) at no additional charge.
  • Delta Reserve cardholders may bring up to 2 guests at a per-visit rate of $50 per person, per location.
