I had thought in the past that Amex Centurion had at least looked into adding a lounge, my brain could be playing tricks on me though.

The Austin airport was supposed to be getting a new lounge accessible by American Express Platinum cardmembers. The airport solicited bids to run a new independent lounge, and selected MAG (“Manchester Airport Group”) USA which runs Escape lounges. A rendering of the lounge even suggested it might be a dual Escape Lounge-Centurion lounge which is the setup in Phoenix. However the City Council balked in a dispute over minority contracting rules.
