Here is some info about the so called "Centurion Card", lots of people think that this is just another AMEX card just like the Platinum. There is also a Personal and Business Centurion Card.

I don't think a lot of people understand the gravity of this card, you need to spend a lot of money and pay them on time. People who has these cards usually are the people who fly J/F class or at least a FF. Needless to say people who have this card have money plain and simple. If you are an executive of a company then you'd be earning a lot as well and spending a lot.
If LH wants to attract these heavy spending people to fly LH, I doubt they care what other people say
. It's a Business Strategy, the reason why they are doing this in a trial phase is to check how many AMEX Plat/Cent users are using the Lounge and maybe Cross Reference their names in the system if the people booked more flights in LH. If that's the case then it would make business sense for them and its a win! More $/ €!!!
How many people or FF spend about $250k-$450k per year often?
I'm sure a lot FF would not be able to "justify" spending these fees on a Credit Card alone! If you complain about the fee then this card is surely not for you, cause for the people who have money these are chunk change.
- Initiation Fee: $5,000–$7,500
- Annual Fee: $2,500 USD
Here are some of the yearly fee per year for different countries.
