American Express is set to launch Sidecar, a new speakeasy-style lounge at Harry Reid International Airport in Las Vegas in 2026. This will make American Express the only credit card issuer with two lounges at this airport. Sidecar targets visitors who spend less than an hour in lounges, providing complimentary access to card members already enjoying Centurion Lounges. The lounge will feature curated menus from acclaimed chefs as part of The Culinary Collective, offering gourmet small plates and signature drinks to card members during their short wait times.
"Many of our visitors spend less than an hour in our lounges, and we've created Sidecar specifically for them," Hendley said in the statement. "The first Centurion Lounge opened in Las Vegas in 2013, so it's fitting that we're launching this new lounge concept at LAS as we continue to innovate to meet our Card Members' needs."
American Express also announced it is partnering with James Beard Award winning Resy chefs Mashama Bailey, Sarah Grueneberg, Kwame Onwuachi, and Mike Solomonov, as well as renowned Bar Director Harrison Ginsberg, to form The Culinary Collective by The Centurion Lounge.
Eligible card members who have limited time will be able to grab a quick bite or drink, including gourmet small plates and signature drinks curated by The Culinary Collective by The Centurion Lounge, in the speakeasy-style space.
We know how much Card Members love the food and drinks at the Centurion Lounges and look forward to seeing what's new. With help from our Resy chef partners, we've brought together a group of some of the most exciting culinary minds in America.
