American Express (NYSE: AXP) recently added new travel offers to its Membership Rewards cards, and is now opening its 13th Centurion Lounge at New York’s John F. Kennedy Airport (JFK) in the coming days.
This new lounge spans more than 15,000 square feet in JFK’s Terminal 4, making it the largest Centurion Lounge to date — outsizing the LAX location by roughly 1,000 square feet. The JFK lounge will also be the first to encompass two guest floors.
Upon arrival, guests will be able to visit an "1850" speakeasy bar (a nod to the year Amex was founded) and an Equinox Body Lab wellness experience. Plus there will be an array of food and beverages, as well as decor influenced by New York’s cultural landmarks.
While the new JFK lounge is opening soon, Amex’s Seattle and Philadelphia lounges are scheduled to reopen today, October 5. More lounges are expected to welcome guests later this month, including Charlotte, San Francisco, Houston and Dallas.
This opening marks the debut of the Equinox Body Lab in an airport lounge, since normally you can only access it within Equinox clubs. The Equinox Body Lab will offer self-guided meditation and stretching sessions using the Variis by Equinox app, a vibro-acoustic chair and more. The sessions will initially be self-led to prioritized health and safety.
In addition to food and relaxation, guests can also get work done in private rooms, enjoy high-speed Wi-Fi, premium restrooms and power outlets. Showers are currently closed
