Centurion Lounge MIA - When do you hope it will open?
Just asked about MIA opening at the LGA lounge. Nothing new to report.

I'm planning to fly AA out of MIA at the end of April. Hope it is open by then.

I'm going to go out on a limb and take a wild guess that Amex's schedule for opening this lounge actually is in no way correlated or connected various FTer's hope, desire, specifically scheduled flight dates, etc.
What if we just waited until Amex communicates the actual opening date? (crazy, I know)

AMEX must open the lounge on [INSERT DATE HERE] so I can use it the next time I go through MIA! AMEX is there to serve ME!

In all fairness, back in May when they first announced this lounge, they said it would open by the end of 2014.

It will open when it opens, not a day before. No amount of the standard FT gnashing of the teeth will have any bearing, whatsoever, on the opening date of this club.

And yet it's not open at this point is it? I think that merely serves to reinforce my point that it's ridiculous to attempt to make travel plans based on the opening of a lounge.

No one is saying they MUST open by any specific date. People were merely expressing their hope that it MIGHT be open by a certain date. Why get so snarky?

Because some of us subscribe to email notifications for this thread and every time we get a notification of an update to the thread, we only find a completely useless response in the form of "I'll be in MIA on this date, the lounge better to be open by then." All these "I hope it will be open by this date" responses adds absolutely zero value to the thread.

I never asked anybody to stop the "chit chat." I'm just pointing out it adds zero value to the thread. Out of the 73 post in this thread, there's only a handful that is value added.
