American Express closed all Centurion Lounges indefinitely on March 21st, 2020 due to COVID-19. American Express had released opening dates for six new lounges in late 2019 for 2020 opening dates. We are still waiting for Denver, London Heathrow and New York JFK to open, these opening dates have now been delayed.
- London Heathrow was due to open in the first half of 2020, will now open in the second half of 2020
- New York JFK was due to open in the first half of 2020, will now open in the second half of 2020
- Denver was due to open ‘sometime in 2020’, will now open in the second half of 2020
These delays probably don’t matter much with all of the lounges being currently closed. American Express is also not known for opening these lounges on time even when there isn’t a pandemic occurring so this is hardly surprising. American Express also recently announced that the Las Vegas Centurion lounge would be receiving a revamp.
