American Airlines will be raising most rates for an Admirals Club membership effective May 1, 2013.

Rates for non-elites will remain unchanged, with prices for new or renewal memberships for AAdvantage Gold members going up by $25. If burning miles is more your style, the rates for Golds are going up by 5,000 miles with the exception of the “single annual renewal†rate remaining at 60,000 miles.

Cash rates for Platinum and Executive Platinum members will go up by $50 across the board. And mileage rates will increase by 5,000 miles with the exception of the “single annual new†rate jumping by 10,000 miles for Plats.

Here’s a table of the new structure:

Both Delta and United recently increased their airport lounge rates, so American seems to be following along.
