American Express Opening Centurion Lounge At Reagan National Airport

ARLINGTON, VA — American Express members visiting the nation's capital will now have a new place to enjoy food from three award-winning chefs or sip a glass of wine during a layover at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport in Arlington.

On Wednesday, American Express will be opening its new Centurion Lounge in Terminal 2, past the South Security Checkpoint, according to a release on Business Wire. The 12,000-foot-space will be decorated with artwork from DC-area artists.
