I am flying DFW-IAH-LHR-BUD. I am AA Exec Plat which grants OW Emerald, as well as a couple Priority Pass cards, and an AMEX platinum. My ticket is BA booked in J. I think this means I have access to the HAS Lounge, the Centurion Lounge, and maybe the AF/KLM (PP + Emerald?). What is the best option as of 2025?
so your lounge options:
- Admirals Club in Terminal A (using your OW Emerald status)
- HAS lounge in Terminal D (using your BA J ticket or OW Emerald status)
- AF/KLM in Terminal D (using PP, since Emerald wouldn't work since you're not flying Qatar)
- Amex Centurion in Terminal D (using your Amex Plat)

I haven't been to the HAS lounge but other trip reports/reviews give me the impression it's generic/so-so. Admirals Club isn't convenient for your BA flight and is kinda meh, while AF/KLM is probably going to be crowded and the food isn't all that. My opinion, I think Amex Centurion is the best lounge of the 4 options that you have.
