NOTE: Expanded Access to Flagship Lounge Coming "in Spring 2017" (Discuss in that thread until new Flagship Lounge access rules come into play.)

AA Expanding Flagship Lounge Access Spring 2017

As part of "In spring 2017, we’ll start introducing our all-new, larger Flagship® Lounges – completely redesigned for qualifying First and Business Class customers.

Features

More room for you to spread out and relax
Larger buffet with premium, fresh meals
Premium beer, wine and spirits
Updated interiors with additional power and privacy options
More staff in each lounge for the highest level of service

American Airlines is expanding access to the Flagship Lounges (but reducing access to Flagship Dining within the Flagsip Lounges):

Expanded access

First and Business Class customers (on qualifying international flights or 3-class transcontinental markets)*
