American Express this week inaugurated its 29th Centurion Lounge, situated within Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport (DCA). This impressive new location spans nearly 12,000 square feet, offering travelers ample space to eat, drink, work, relax, and explore. Its contemporary design aligns with other recent Centurion Lounges, such as the one in Atlanta, and rivals the innovative spaces created by Capital One and Chase, which are also enhancing airport experiences for today’s credit card loyalists.

The lounge features a variety of seating areas designed primarily for solo travelers seeking privacy.

Terminal 2 passengers can access the lounge from Gates B, C, D, and E, serving airlines such as American, Alaska, Delta, JetBlue, and United. However, passengers departing from Terminal 1, Gate A, which services Air Canada, Frontier, and Southwest, do not have access.
This week I had the opportunity to preview AmEx’s latest lounge, I’m already planning to arrive early for my next flight from DCA to spend some extra time here. Here’s what you need to know about the new Centurion Lounge at DCA, including how to gain entry.
“We all travel for food nowadays, so it was very important for us to bring a strong food component to our newest lounge,” says Audrey Hendley, president of American Express Travel. Different from other Centurion Lounges, which

Meet the Queer Podcasters Making National Parks More Inclusive
The National Parks, despite efforts to highlight LGBTQ heritage, have long felt like the domain of a homogenous set of travelers. National Park Service efforts to change this image have had mixed results—a number of Pride events in parks have received backlash and even boycotts from those they claim to celebrate. But visibility matters, especially in places long typified as straight, able-bodied, and white—and that’s where folks like Dusty Ballard and Mike Ryan come in.
