If you continue walking down, you’ll find a secondary bar with seating along with a refreshment center with tea and coffee. At this lounge, the area is reserved for Centurion Card holders. Near the front of the lounge, you’ll see the famous painting with AMEX’s original logo of a watchdog dating back to 1890. I entered a little bit before 11am on a Tuesday, and perhaps that’s a low-traffic time. There wasn’t anyone waiting at the desk and I was quickly checked in.Īs I walked through the lounge to find a seat, I noticed the lounge wasn’t as crowded as my last visit, which surprised me. And, there are no views for plane spotting which is a bummer. I really am not a fan as it gives underground vibes. But here, you actually take the elevators down 2 floors to access the lounge. Normally with airport lounges, you take elevators up to get views. You can see the full rules on access here if you’re interested. Or, if you spend $75,000 in a calendar year on the cards, you’ll get 2 guests for free. Business Platinum Card Members will be charged a $50 fee for each guest (or $30 for children 2-17).

It took me about 11 minutes to walk to the lounge, but I do walk rather quickly. Then when I left the lounge to get to the gate, I walked from TBIT to Terminal 5, passing Terminal 4 along the way. I was flying on JetBlue, and didn’t have any bags to check so I cleared security at TBIT to save on walking. LAX is currently building a post-security connector from Terminal 2/3 to Terminal B (TBIT) which should be completed later this year. There’s a terminal connector walkway from Terminals 4-8, and an airside bus from Terminals 2 and 3. TBIT is accessible airside from all LAX terminals except for Terminal 1. As of my March 2023 visit, the current hours are from 6am to 10pm. The American Express Centurion Lounge LAX is located in the Tom Bradley International Terminal B (TBIT). But, in terms of lounging comfort, it still didn’t score high marks from me. In short, this visit was more enjoyable, as the lounge was emptier and the food selection was solid. I was curious to see if my sentiment would change on my latest visit. I visited the lounge in August of 2022 and didn’t like the dungeon feel. This particular lounge opened last June of 2022 after it had a long closure to fix a problem that led to jet fumes entering the lounge. Recently, I visited the American Express Centurion Lounge Los Angeles (LAX) before my JetBlue flight.
