“I participated in an Influencer Activation Program on behalf of Influence-Central for American Express. I received thank you item for my participation.
This month I was invited to San Francisco for a special brunch with my kids to check out The Centurion Lounge by American Express that just opened to the public this month at the San Francisco Airport. This is a pretty neat place for those of you that like to travel…
The Centurion Lounge is the perfect place to hangout at the airport even when you are traveling with your kids. It is a place where you can wine and dine, work and play and even relax and recharge. It is the perfect place for those looking for a place to go when there is a layover.
When you first walk in you will be amazed with the wine selection even if you don’t drink wine. You will find a unique wine tasting area that is powered by Wine Emotion that allows guest to sample different wines from the Napa Valley that have been chosen by wine directory Anthony Giglio.
For those that have an appetite, you will find a seasonal cuisine that has been curated by Christopher Kostow, chef at The Restaurant at Meadowwood, as well as signature cocktails by renowned mixologist Jim Meehan.
While I didn’t try any of the wine or the cocktails, my daughters and I really enjoyed the variety of food that was served. There was a selection of food to please everyone from pancakes, chicken sausage, breads, fruits, yogurt and more!
Traveling can be tiring and it can also be stressful when you have little ones. The brand new Centurion Lounge is a place that features a dedicated kid-friendly soundproof that offers games and entertainment to keep the kids busy while you relax or get caught up on work.
For those that want to catch up on some work or maybe relax and read a book, The Centurion Lounge offers connected work spaces that include high speed Wi-Fi and outlets near every seat.
My daughters had fun playing with the different apps on the computer while I checked out all the amenities of the lounge.
If you are just looking for a place to kick up your feet, there are plenty of places to lay back and relax while waiting for your flight. You will also find luxurious shower suites that provide you with a way to get refreshed in between flights.
During our special brunch we got to watch some cool magic tricks from Dante the magician. The kids LOVED his magic tricks and so did I. Even my teenagers were interested in how Dante learned his tricks. He seriously had all these kids LAUGHING so hard it was great.
Not only did the kids see some cool magic tricks they also went home with some very awesome balloon animals from Dante. When it comes to magic and balloons, Dante had it covered.
Entry to The American Express Centurion Lounges is complimentary for consumer, Business and Corporate Platinum Card and Centurion Members, and their immediate family or up to two travel companions. Other American Express Credit and Charge Members may purchase a one-day pass at The Centurion Lounge for $50.
