Smart Travelers Lounge Around
Why would you want to wait at the gate when you can be enjoying free Wi-Fi and some snacks in the comfort of a lounge? LoungeBuddy posts reviews on airport lounges worldwide, including their entry requirements and how you can score some day passes.
Several premium credit cards, including the Chase Sapphire Reserve and the Platinum Card from American Express, grant you access to hundreds of Priority Pass lounges worldwide.
Frequent flyers can also consider airline-specific cards like the Delta SkyMiles Reserve or United Club Card, which can get you into a particular carrier’s lounge.
Another great thing? The agents in these lounges can usually help you faster than those out in the terminal, and they can get you rebooked if something goes wrong with your travel plans.
