American Express has announced a major expansion of its planned Centurion Lounge at Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR), increasing its size by more than two thirds to over 30,000 square feet. When it opens in 2027, the two-story facility will become the largest Centurion Lounge in the company's global network, overtaking its existing flagship location at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport (ATL). However, NerdWallet reports that the expansion comes with a delay, as the Newark lounge was previously expected to open in 2026.
