Reminder: US Open ticket presale for American Express cardholders begins May 28
Editor's Note
As a reminder, tickets for the U.S. Open Tennis Championships go on sale to the general public June 1. However, American Express cardholders can access tickets early, beginning May 28.
The U.S. Open Tennis Championships are held annually in New York City and are considered the crown jewel of the American tennis scene; the event is the fourth and final Grand Slam tournament of each competition year. In 2024, it will take place from Aug. 26 to Sept. 8.
Typically, American Express and Chase offer credit card holders certain perks during the tournament, including access to members-only lounges and suites. But this year, one of those perks includes the chance to snag a seat before the general public can.

From May 28 at 9 a.m. EDT through June 1 at 11:59 p.m. EDT, Amex cardholders can purchase tickets online through Ticketmaster, the official ticketing partner of the U.S. Open. Amex cardholders are allotted a maximum of eight tickets per day for both day and evening sessions for a grand total of 16 session tickets each day.
Additionally, customers can purchase up to eight ground admission passes per day; this is applicable during both the early access period and the public sale, according to American Express.
Note that all sales are final, with no refunds or exchanges permitted.
In addition to early access to tickets ahead of the general public, Amex will likely offer cardholders its usual on-the-ground perks. However, a spokesperson could not confirm 2024 perks at the time of publication.
Last year, Amex offered complimentary bag check services and access to the Centurion Suite that The Platinum Card® from American Express and Centurion cardholders could reserve ahead of time. It also offered access to a lounge for other cardholders on a first-come, first-served basis.
The information for the Centurion card has been collected independently by The Points Guy. The card details on this page have not been reviewed or provided by the card issuer.
