American Express announced plans on Oct. 8 to expand and renovate its existing Centurion Lounge at George Bush Intercontinental Airport.
The details: The project will nearly triple the lounge's current space from 8,000 square feet to 23,000 square feet and is expected to be complete by 2028.
Upgrades at the Houston airport lounge will include:
A new Blue Roast by American Express Coffee and Wellness Bar
A specialty dining area with rotating plated dishes and a signature buffet
A second full-service bar with craft cocktails and a curated wine selection
Refreshed restrooms, premium shower suites and various seating areas
Some context: This expansion is part of a larger investment by American Express. The company also plans to expand and upgrade its lounge at Philadelphia International Airport, open a new lounge at Newark Liberty Airport and open a second lounge at London Heathrow Airport.
