The bottom line is I don't think many people would make the effort to go to another terminal just to seek out a lounge which is why I said they might as well place it airside in T3 since it's a United hub. Precheck makes the experience more predictable, but not everyone has Precheck. Once you get back to your departure terminal you don't know how long security will take.
I'm guessing that with PreCheck and including wait time for the AirTrain between terminals, I can get from outside T3 to inside T2 in ~10-15 minutes.However, if you're checking luggage or need to pick up a boarding pass from your airline, you would need to check in at T1 or T2, head over to T3, and then head back to T1 or T2 to catch your flight. The Star Alliance (or United, I forget) lounge at CDG is before security as well. The LGA Centurion lounge is reported to go landside. That being said, there are sometimes lounges pre-security for a variety of reasons. If you're arriving internationally, again, you'd need a same-day SFO departing boarding pass to clear security. If you're arriving in one of the other concourses, then security at SFO won't let you clear into E, F, or G without a boarding pass departing SFO that day.
If you're arriving in the aforementioned concourses E, F, or G, then yes, but only if you have a connecting flight. However, with a PreCheck security lane right next to the entrance to the lounge, it can be quite easy to clear security twice if necessary.Ī: It depends. Some other concourses are connected to each other airside, but not to the point that you can walk airside to the Centurion. At the moment, Terminal 3 concourses E and F, and International Terminal concourse G are connected airside to the Centurion lounge. Security at SFO will let passengers departing from any concourse at SFO go through security in any concourse, even ones that aren't connected behind security. Q: Can I visit there if I'm departing from another terminal?Ī: Absolutely. I hope that they find that 3 hours is too short and will eventually find the right balance.A: Terminal 3, F concourse, right by Gate F2 (formerly gate 75) and the F-1 security checkpoint (that has PreCheck, sometimes). I am curious to see how this will affect spa appointments. American Express seems be playing around with rules at the Centurion Lounge and I’m not quite sure they have the data to support this move.

American Express has said that this new rule doesn’t apply to connecting passengers.Īdditional, children under two years of age will be admitted free of charge and will not count towards the two complimentary guest count, so long as they are accompanied by a parent or guardian who is able to produce a “lap infant” boarding pass or proof of age. Amex Centurion Lounge access will be limited to three hours or less prior to the originally scheduled departure time of a flight. Centurion Lounge access will no longer be permitted upon arrival. As of March 22, 2019, Amex will be updating access rules for Centurion Lounges for Platinum card members.
