Every time I've been to the Centurion Room, it was pretty full.. so I can imagine why they've been restricting the guests.



Immediate family guests apply to those under 16 and there's no restriction to as how many you can get in. I'm sure they'll keep the 1 guest for Plats, since by January 1st all access restrictions will be active and a lot less people will be using the Lounge.


Also, ndesq. I just got pointed out that the Star Alliance lounge is having long lines of people trying to get in. It makes sense, since the Amex lounge is closed now and the SA Lounge is the only one in EZE to take Priority Pass.
But it got me thinking, most banks offer PP in Argentina on their High End cards. Most of them used to go to the Amex lounge (Centurion Lounge accepted High End Amex Bank cards). Amex is restricting their access as of January '15, as I said. That means that maybe the Star Alliance Lounge will be very full with lots of Priority Pass guests next year, unless they do something.
What do you mean when you say that the AmEx lounge is now closed? It's new, on the mezzanine level of Terminal C next to the AR lounge.

Or are you referring to it's old location (in Terminal A, close to *A gates?) being closed?
