American Express Airport Lounges Cut Back on Free Plus Ones
PHOENIX—One of the top perks of access to airport lounges—bringing family members and partners along to eat, drink and relax for free—increasingly comes with a price tag.
Maddie Davidson and her family hiked to the American Express Centurion Lounge in a neighboring concourse at Sky Harbor International Airport a few weeks ago to enjoy free breakfast and some mimosas before a flight to Orlando, Fla. She was surprised when the front desk agent at the lounge said the price for her husband and two children was $110.
