If you're planning to visit the Centurion Lounge at Sea-Tac, my biggest piece of advice is to join…read morethe waitlist in the Amex app as soon as you clear security. In the app, tap the Membership tab at the bottom, select Airport Lounges, find the Seattle Sea-Tac Centurion Lounge, and then tap Join Waitlist. During my visit, the wait to get in was longer than expected (45 minutes) and using the waitlist can save you a considerable amount of time. After seeing the lounge in person, it was easy to understand why there is often a wait. The space is beautiful, but it's much smaller than I anticipated and can get very crowded during peak travel times. Another thing to know is that the lounge isn't the easiest place to find if it's your first visit. It's tucked away near Koi Sushi in the middle of the main concourse food court area, so keep an eye out for the signs as you make your way through the terminal. Once inside, I could see why so many travelers want access. The lounge is modern, comfortable, and well maintained. The staff were outstanding throughout my visit. Everyone I interacted with was friendly, professional, and genuinely welcoming. The vanilla latte was excellent and easily one of the better coffees I've had in an airport lounge. Service at the coffee bar and throughout the lounge was top-notch. The food was good, although the selection felt more limited than I expected. There was a soup station, salad options, appetizers, and several hot entrées. Everything I tried was fresh and flavorful. The green smoothies were fantastic, and the made-in-house ice cream was a standout and worth saving room for. I typically favor going to the Delta Sky Clubs when flying through Seattle, so it was nice to finally check out the Centurion Lounge. My husband specifically wanted to try it on this trip, and I'm glad we did because it was a worthwhile experience. Overall, I think the Centurion Lounge is definitely a great option if you have access. However, if you also have access to the two Delta Sky Clubs at Sea-Tac, I would personally choose those instead. The Sky Clubs offer a much more spacious experience, significantly more seating, and what feels like three times the number of food options. I've also never had to wait to get into a Sky Club in Seattle, whereas the wait for the Centurion Lounge was substantial. That said, I still enjoyed my visit. The lounge is attractive, the service is excellent, the coffee is great, and it's a comfortable place to relax before a flight. If lounge access comes with one of your cards, it's absolutely worth visiting. I'm just not sure I would pay $50 separately for access given the crowds and limited space. If you're looking for a comfortable place to recharge, grab a quality coffee, enjoy a meal, and escape the terminal for a bit, the Centurion Lounge delivers. Just set your expectations regarding the size and wait times. While my personal preference remains the Delta Sky Clubs, I can absolutely see why Centurion Lounge fans enjoy this space, especially for the service, coffee, and overall atmosphere.

Service: Service seemed to be pretty good and what you would expect from a Centurion lounge. Ambiance: Ive only been to 2 Centurion and I would say overall, they were about the same overall, including ambiance. Overall: I would rate this Centurion lounge a 3.5-4

This lounge is ok... The men's shower has been nonfunctional for months (seriously, how hard is it…read moreto get someone out to fix it?!) and so has the espresso machine. You can only get pre-brewed drip coffee here. I went during lunch. They updated their soups to to winder vegetable soup and creamy Thai chicken & rice soup, while there's still teriyaki tofu rice and chicken and vegetable rice. There is a choice of two salads: kale based and spring mix based. If you're feeling a little bit indulgent, potato chips and dip are available as is chocolate pudding. There are also the requisite chocolate chip cookies. Large picture windows reveal airplane hangers and Mt. Rainer in the background. The lighting is much better than the other lounge. This is an OK lounge; I wish they made repairs in a timely fashion.

More spacious, natural light than the other Club location on Concourse A, but hot take, the food at…read morethe other location is vastly better. This location is easy to find though fair warning, it does get crowded pretty darn quickly so there may be a wait or limit during busy hours. The food ran out almost immediately after it was filled because of how many people were present. I was there in the morning so it was 1 veg egg dish, 1 meat item, and an oatmeal. There was another section with some cereal, fruit, pastries/bagels, yogurt. All in all, good for a small bite before your trip. I didn't try the bar but service seemed swift and friendly. The bathrooms were fine though rather limited; the shower was out of service which was a bummer but sounds like it is limited to 1 person. Not sure about availability/cleanliness. Appreciated the private pod like chairs with little pull out tables. Is this the best lounge ever, no. But it certainly is not the worst.

There is a regular club and then the Delta One lounge on the next level. I've been able to come here a couple times since they opened it and prefer it to the other one at SEA. I like the layout and seating diversity, lots of seats near the windows, and the cleanliness. Tasty snacks too, so what's not to like? Highly recommend! This club is further down by A11, so you can still go to the other at A3 if you're not at the further end of the terminal. The club at A3, I give 4 stars, btw.

FRANKIE & the jets love the Alaska C Lounge before jetting off from Seattle... A respite from all…read morethe people at the airport who bother me... Now this place is well hidden at the end of Terminal C. You must locate the elevator and head to 2nd level. The ladies will scan your boarding pass to confirm your membership then and only then will you be allowed into the sanctuary.. Grab a table or head to the bar for a cocktail regardless of the time of day. Me at the AM time it's OJ or coffee none of that poison to start my day off... Then it's time to load up my plate with fruit , meat or the Steel Oates with raisins and brown sugar. At lunch time it's a shift of goodies but I'm never at airport in the afternoon. Once I've loaded up I'll gaze at the jets coming and going from the humongous windows to the world overlooking the runways.. If you're comprehending the privilege then sign up and come on in.. Just don't bother Frank!

But since the mileage on my longest segment was only 1650 instead of 2000 or more, I had to pay half price to get into the lounge instead of it being complementary. That's OK. It's a nice lounge and for $35. I got a great meal some free, soft drinks and delicious trail mix in a quieter atmosphere and got to charge up my devices. This is a really decent lounge. The food was excellent. It was Greek day and they had Greek salad deconstructed, pita, chicken, Shawarma, falafel, and other Middle Eastern delights plus a couple of nice soups. The staff here was kind and efficient. I was able to get a mocha from the barista as soon as I walked in. The lounge is a wee bit dated and on the smaller side, but I enjoyed it and as soon as the screaming baby left after about a half hour, it was much quieter. This was a good place to spend 4 1/2 hours on a layover.

Lots of power and USB outlets available. The food was average this time with tomato bisque soup, ginger chicken and rice, pad Thai salad, vegetarian wrap, cold cuts, fruits, 3 desserts (brownies, chocolate chip cookies and some fancy poundcake) and a ham slider. Food was just being replenished when I wandered through. Full bar in the back for those who wish to imbibe a bit before their flight.

Seattle is a special place, green, surrounded by mountains and nature, an excellent food scene, and a place I once called home. It's from that perspective that I have to say: Seattle deserves a better airport. The airport is overdue for a major remodel, something along the lines of Portland's recent transformation. Maybe it's time to call in Seattle's own Olson Kundig. For a city with such a strong foodie culture, the airport food scene is classically disappointing: uninspired, low quality and overpriced options. Outside of Beecher's Handmade Cheese, which wasn't near my gate, Starbucks was sadly the best Seattle option available. Beyond food, the airport feels stuck in another era, complete with aging outlets, uncomfortable seating and worn floors. Portland and Hong Kong, which I've recently visited, offered a better blueprint by bringing the city's best dining into the airport experience. Airports should feel like an extension of the city they serve, and Seattle's falls short. On a positive note: the light rail to and from the airport is an unquestionable win. It is efficient, affordable, and modern. Now the airport and its food and retail offerings just need to catch up.
