American Airlines Announces Expanded Admirals Club at BNA

American Airlines has announced plans for an expanded Admirals Club® lounge at Nashville International Airport’s (BNA) new Concourse A.

When complete, the approximately 17,400-square-foot lounge will be the largest airline lounge at BNA and nearly three times the size of the current lounge space, offering customers a more spacious and premium place to relax, work or recharge before their flight. The new location will feature sweeping views of the airfield and a design inspired by Nashville’s vibrant culture.

A standout feature of the new lounge will be its outdoor terraces providing airfield views and an indoor balcony overlooking the concourse. Construction on the new Admirals Club lounge is targeted to begin in 2027. American’s existing lounge space in Concourse C, Level 4 at BNA will remain open for customers throughout construction.

In other BNA news, Southwest is also planning its own lounge there and will reportedly spend $53 million to build it.

For those traveling domestically, Admirals Club lounge access is available through an Admirals Club® membership, qualifying oneworld status or the Citi® / AAdvantage® Executive World Elite Mastercard®.

Citi® / AAdvantage® Globe Mastercard® cardholders can also use one of their four Admirals Club® Globe passes, valid for 24 hours. Customers can also purchase a One-Day Pass, valid for 24 hours, for $79 or 7,900 AAdvantage® miles.
