American Express have announced their plans to open a new centurion lounge in JFK’s terminal 4. Some key pieces of information:
- Expected opening is early 2019
- Lounge will be 15,000 square feet, making it the largest Centurion lounge
- Lounge will be two levels with views over the airfield
- Standard complimentary drinks and hot food will apply. American Express usually have a chef from the area design the menu, that is yet to be announced
- There will be “special new features” these are currently unannounced.
The issue with any lounge at JFK is that the terminals are not connected airside so your flight would need to be out of terminal 4 to be able to take advantage of the new lounge. American Express said they chose JFK because that’s one of the top airports they see Platinum & Centurion travelers traveling through. Some renderings of the lounge below:
