Good morning everyone. Yesterday, my friend told me that there is a way to access American Express Centurion Lounges and Capital One Lounges without having your American Express Platinum Card, American Express Business Platinum Card, or Capital One Venture X Credit Card with you at the airport. You just need to sign into the American Express app or Capital One app and there is a way to display a QR code to access the lounges. I never knew this feature existed, so I thought it would be worth sharing in case you ever find yourself at a lounge without your card. Several years ago, I wrote a similar post for Priority Pass: Access Priority Pass Lounges without your Card (Use Priority Pass App & Apple Wallet).
Access to American Express Centurion Lounges
To get started, download the American Express app (iOS or Android). Then sign into the app, select your personal or business Platinum card, and then click the Membership button on the bottom.
