American Express opens continental Europe’s first Centurion Lounge at Schiphol

American Express is opening The Centurion Lounge at Amsterdam Airport Schiphol on 17 September, bringing the Centurion brand to continental Europe for the first time. The lounge sits between Concourses E and F and is the 33rd in the network, with daily opening hours of 6 a.m. to 9:30 p.m. for eligible cardmembers travelling through one of Europe’s busiest hubs.

The lounge forms part of American Express’s Global Lounge Collection and extends a premium airport offering that already includes a Centurion Lounge at London Heathrow. The Schiphol location draws on Dutch art, landscapes, culture and design, with facilities including a Blue Roast Coffee Bar, full bar, buffet, quiet workspaces, private restrooms, a phone room and free high-speed Wi-Fi. Power and USB access are also available throughout the lounge.

For American Express, the opening expands its airport presence in Europe and adds another branded lounge product in a market where premium travellers increasingly expect differentiated terminal facilities. Schiphol’s scale and international route network give the new lounge immediate relevance for business and leisure passengers passing through Amsterdam.
