Per the AA website you should still have access "All Admirals Club Members and their Guests have access"

Looking for a bit of advice on which lounges are accessible in MIA. I am travelling BA back to London on a Club World ticket. I also have PP and an Amex Plat. The nominated lounge is the Club America lounge in F which I am told is fairly awful. My question is can I access the AA lounges in D/E mentioned above? This is not just a status query but also a geography/practical question in term of distances and security. Or are there better options? Will have upto 5 hours to kill. Thanks for any advice in advance.

I'd probably hit the Centurion Lounge till closer to the flight time, then head over to the Premium Lounge in E, which will be closest to the gate.

Quite right, my mistake. BA does indeed depart E gates! This makes things easier, though not sure why I had F in my head. Any preference for the AA lounges? Might do a lounge hop to have a look. Champagne is a top priority though! Big thanks for the reply JJeffrey.

Your best choice is the Premium Lounge. It will have champagne as good as or possibly better than the other clubs and you pour it yourself. It is closest to your gate. They are also the only ones that announce BA boarding.

With 5 hrs to kill, I'd hit the Centurion Lounge for the first 2-3 then head to the Premium Lounge until boarding.

Been in the Centurion twice in the past 24 hours and it's always packed evening or morning. Even with the new change that people can't buy passes if they don't have Plat/Centurion. And unless you score the couches by the coffee machine, there is no great seating in it. Supposed to be expanded in the future, but I would not want to spend more than an hour or so in it. Great food and drinks, but space and privacy are definitely lacking.

I've just been redirected from the Premium lounge to the new Flagship lounge at D30. What a difference! I didn't realise that as PLT on a coach ticket to Europe I could use the new lounge. Excellent hot and cold buffet and the Bollinger is going down very well! This new lounge really shows how far AA has come.

Was traveling through concourse E two weeks ago and visited the premium lounge right around noon. Perhaps went at an off day or time, as the food offerings were the same as the AC, with the addition of a buffet that consisted of cold cuts and pasta. A self-service bar was limited to the house wine served at AC and a very small selection of well liquor. Some tattinger or bollinger would have been most welcome.
