Platinum/Centurion access to LH lounges if flying LH/LX/OS .
According to the AMEX app Platinum and Centurion card members now have access to select LH lounges in MUC when flying LH/Swiss/Austrian.
One Mile at a Time Article
I'm hoping this works out and is expanded to additional LH lounge locations.
- Platinum cardmembers get access to the Lufthansa Business Lounges in the Terminal 2 Satellite when flying Lufthansa, Swiss, or Austrian in any class of service
- Platinum cardmembers get access to the Lufthansa Senator Lounges in the Terminal 2 Satellite when flying Lufthansa, Swiss, or Austrian in business class
- Centurion cardmembers get access to the Lufthansa First Class Lounge in the Terminal 2 Satellite when flying Lufthansa, Swiss, or Austrian in any class of service

Centurion Lounge Benefit - Munich
About two months ago AmEx updated the app and included lounges in Munich:
First Class Lounge (Satellite): Centurion Members
Senator Lounge (Satellite): Platinum Members
Couple of questions:
1) Has anyone tried this and confirmed yet (esp. Centurion)
2) Assume no guests allowed?
3) Only Satellite Lounge, or G/H as well but just not mentioned?
If not, I'll try it out later this week and report back. Have a 5 hour transit IAD-MUC-FRA-JNB and trying to figure out how to use my time...

2) The AMEX app notes "Certain locations will allow guest for a fee" so definitely not complimentary.
3) According to AMEX app, its only the Satellite locations for now. I believe LH/AMEX are testing this out to see if there is too much crowding before possibly expanding.

I'm wondering if they've added Frankfurt as a location with access to the Senator or business lounges with the AMEX Plat?

Got it. I have the Amex Plat personal card and we'd be aiming to enter the LH Business Lounge. Do you know whether the guest policy there also allows me to bring in a guest? We are on the same flight/ticket. Thanks.
