This is also where you’ll find the buffet and signature bar with five barstools.Īll in all, I thought the lounge was well-designed, and I especially appreciated the oversized dining area. There are plenty of two- and four-top tables here, as well as some built-in tables along the wall. In the centre of the lounge is the large dining room. But when it got full, the best place to sit was right by the reception desk, where there’s a small nook with four seats. The lounge was uncharacteristically quiet throughout my three visits, probably because of travel cutbacks caused by the coronavirus pandemic. Since this area of the lounge faces the windows, the space has copious natural light pouring in during the day and great AvGeek views. There are plenty of signature Amex green built-in wall chairs, as well as an assortment of solo recliners, couches and tables spread along the windows.Īt the end of the lounge is an eight-seat co-working table, as well as more built-in wall seats and relaxation areas.

The Centurion Lounge in Las Vegas is typically open daily from 5 a.m. With a few train rides, you can visit the lounge if you’re flying from the main concourse of Terminal 1 (A, B or C gates) or 3 (E gates), but it’s a trek and may not be worth it if you’re short on time. The LAS location is easily accessible for passengers flying Air Canada, American, Contour, Delta, Frontier, Hawaiian, Sun Country and United, which all operate from the D Gates.
