“As we elevate our presence in Austin, we’re excited to bring a new level of comfort and hospitality to our customers,” American’s Chief Customer Officer Heather Garboden said in a news release. “The new Admirals Club lounge will reflect the vibrant spirit of Austin while offering the thoughtful design and premium amenities our customers expect.”<\/p>\n
The current lounge will remain open during construction. Construction is expected to end by June 2027, according to TDLR.<\/p>\n
In addition to the outdoor terrace, the lounge will feature “distinct zones” to relax, dine, work and recharge “all designed to balance style, comfort and function,” the release said.<\/p>\n
Lounge access is available for members, but passengers also can buy a one-day pass for $79 or 7,900 AAdvantage miles.<\/p>\n
Once the airport’s second permanent terminal is complete, American will have nine gates at the Barbara Jordan Terminal.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"“As we elevate our presence in Austin, we’re excited to bring a new level of comfort and hospitality…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":394386,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[11],"tags":[132,134,133,1836,1704,85744,86573,138785],"class_list":["post-394385","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-austin","tag-austin","tag-austin-headlines","tag-austin-news","tag-chronnews","tag-chronstaff","tag-chrontexas","tag-chrontranspo","tag-texasbrands"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/394385","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=394385"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/394385\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/394386"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=394385"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=394385"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=394385"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
