In Miami three people were convicted for stealing 20% of an airport lounge's revenue over a two year period (Jan 2012 - Feb 2014). The restitution they were ordered to pay was about $3 million, suggesting gross revenue $15 million for two years. (Read both articles to find all dates and numbers.)

LAX’s board has approved a lease with American Express for a Centurion Loinge to be located in the Tom Bradley International Terminal.

ORD Centurion
It is not a question of if, but when, Chicago and American Express choose to open a lounge. From my perspective the big question is whether it will serve the domestic (1,2,3), international (5) or both terminals. LAX is getting an Amex lounge in their international terminal, which is accessible to many (basically not WN or DL) domestic passengers. What thoughts/rumors do people want to share here? My ideal location would be in the concentric area near the G gates near the AA + DL + UA parts of the airport, or someplace in the E-F building.

Amex seems to not be competing directly with Sky Club locations, so a Centurion Lounge in ORD T2 seems unlikely as long as DL lives there. I know there are big plans at ORD in the coming years, such as a new international terminal and DL relocating to what is now T5, and T2 getting demolished and rebuilt. I would not be surprised to see a Centurion lounge end up there in the long term.

That is interesting since at JFK they are putting the biggest Amex Lounge to date in T4, while I know this is also the Intl terminal so to speak, it still does compete with DL there as well as all the Intl "flagship" lounges. But I assume this was due to space/getting the most exposure to the most airlines.

EWR where could a centurion lounge go?
so as with most people in prettt fed up with the UA EWR terminal C lounge situation. Since they closed the main lounge to make it Polaris the overcrowding has been surreal.
as a GS I have no access to Polaris domestically.
i really enjoy the Amex lounges in other airports. With JFK and LGA covered makes me wonder if EWR ever would be. If they did so decide to put a lounge there where could one even go in terminal c?

Maybe a Centurion lounge gets built in the new Terminal A once construction is completed. I don’t think you will ever see one show up in Terminal C.
I hope UA sorts out the UC situation relatively soon, though. For the endless amount of time it feels like some amount of construction has been going on at C, the non-Polaris clubs have been neglected.
