CENTURION LOUNGE DALLAS SOFTWARE

American’s Admiral’s Clubs are nice, but don’t compare to the Flagship lounges at ORD, JFK, and LAX. The closest you get is Terminal D where Qantas, Priority Pass, Star Alliance, and a few others have contract lounges that closely resemble small closets. The reason? No one else has a nice lounge either. Even though they have four Admiral’s Clubs, very seldom will you see an offering suited to the premium passenger that American so covets. There is not a Flagship First Class lounge at DFW airport. Similarly, American’s lounges at DFW aren’t to the flagship standard of some of their other lounges. So most people just end up paying the premium for American (although we grumble like heck). Even when Delta recently started flying this route they couldn’t muster up more than a regional jet for it.

American, for a long time, had a monopoly on nonstop flights on this route, and would routinely charge $200-300 more than its competitors, because they knew they could and they knew I (or, rather, my clients) would end up paying it.

My daytime job as a financial software consultant has me in and out of New York fairly often, so I know the DFW-LGA market well. American doesn’t really have to try that hard at DFW.

The cons, though, can be severe at times. The pros include being a 3-3.5 hour flight from either coast, usually on a nonstop flight, and DFW is fairly easy to navigate. I live in Dallas and my primary airport is DFW, the fortress hub of American Airlines. Life as a frequent flyer based out of DFW Pictures to follow, but first, some build-up… At the beginning of a recent weekend trip to Europe (trip report in the works), I had the chance to check out American Express’s new Centurion Lounge at DFW International Airport.
