Amex Limits Escape Lounge Access

June 10, 2024 at 07:08 EDT By Spencer Howard

Your Mileage May Vary flagged that American Express changed the entry policy for Escape Lounges. You will only be able to access an Escape Lounge within 3 hours of departure.

From Amex's terms and conditions:

"Effective May 9, 2024, to access select Escape Lounge locations, eligible Platinum Card® Members will be required to arrive at the lounge within 3 hours of their departing flight. During a layover the eligible Card Member may use the Escape Lounge in the connecting airport at any time. Additional information on guest fee rates, access policies and lounge terms and conditions can be found at escapelounges.com/us/access/."
