American Airlines Plans to Open New Austin Admirals Club

American Airlines will break ground soon on a new 15,000-plus-square-foot Admirals Club at Austin-Bergstrom International Airport (AUS). The lounge, which will be near Gate 14, will be able to seat more than 250 customers and its construction will begin next year.

The inspiration for the lounge is taken from the city itself, reflecting the urban fabric of Rainey Street, Austin Parks, local art and music. Customers can get a taste of the Austin vibe throughout their experience in the Admirals Club. Once open, customers will also be entertained by local musicians.

The existing Admirals Club will remain fully operational while the new club is being constructed. More information, including the opening date, will be shared at a later date.

American’s Admirals Club lounges are membership-based lounges that include access to more than 60 Admirals Clubs and partner lounges worldwide. Customers traveling on an American Airlines or oneworld alliance ticketed flight may also purchase a day pass to an Admirals Club.

Admirals Club lounges feature complimentary amenities like food and beverages, Wi-Fi, digital magazines and newspapers as well as services like personal travel assistance, business centers and kids rooms.

Over the last year, American has added more than 25 new nonstop routes to and from Austin and its partnerships with airlines like British Airways, JetBlue and Alaska Airlines have provided even more ways to connect from Austin to around the world.
