![]() A full on food and beverage service of the highest level will naturally be included.Īnd yes, you still get the amazingly cool car ride to the plane, private TSA, CBP and all that jazz. Instead, you’ll have an ultra posh shared lounge, also miles from the terminal, just next door to the fully private suites. Once the new luxury facility is completed in the near term, all Centurion ‘Black Card’ members will receive one annual complimentary access to the ‘Amex Experience’ at PS LAX, which is everything but the fully private suite. The PS website has a FAQ section which confirms all that’s said to be in the works. It’s all very cool, but still a bit much for some, even ‘Black Card’ holders.īut eyeing and inquiring about construction project at the facility, GSTP was told that Amex and PS are building an ‘Amex Experience’ lounge at LAX, which will offer Amex an unprecedented new avenue to cater to luxury seeking cardmembers at the popular West Coast hub. In what feels like the most natural partnership ever though, PS started a partnership with Amex, where Centurion Members receive a free complimentary PS membership worth $4,500 a few years ago, which entitles them to the lower rates per use. Ridiculous for many, but also chump change to many in La La Land. To reduce costs, a membership can be purchased for a few grand, but you still pay over $3,200 per use. As the experience teaser might have you guessing, it’s expensive AF though.Ĭurrently, use of the facility is over $4,350 one way, for up to four people. Literally everything on the ground is even nicer than flying private, truly.Įvery need is catered to, and the suites themselves are like a candy shop for adults, with stocked bars, every gadget known to mankind and a team of professionals that handle everything from the drop off of your bags, to collection of boarding passes and it all feels like highly trained Secret Service agents have your back. It’s probably also worth mentioning that there’s a fully private TSA security checkpoint with no one in front or behind, and even US Immigration with the same bliss. It starts with a private facility across the airport from all the commercial terminals, where a private suite to relax before flight awaits, before a BMW ride to your flight at the perfect moment. It’s become the go-to for A-list celebrities, titans of industry and people who just want to make the airport, anything but. Of course, ridiculous is meant with the highest of praise. PS, formerly known as the Private Suite, is the most ridiculous solution to airport luxury in the United States. If there was ever a time to be envious, this is one of the coolest travel perks around, and yes, it involves being driven to the steps of your commercial plane, and most likely some champagne to celebrate, too. Now, Amex Centurion – aka ‘Black Card’ – ballers can do just that, and perhaps others too, thanks to a ridiculously cool new card benefit. There are plenty of airports where “LOL” would be the only appropriate response, but at Los Angeles International Airport (LAX), there’s actually a way to make that happen.
