Chase/J.P. Morgan Chase
Cardholders of certain Chase credit cards can look forward to accessing three new airport lounges that opened this week.
Cardholders of a J.P. Morgan Reserve card or a Chase Sapphire Reserve credit card have unlimited access to Chase Sapphire Lounges. The lounges offer free access to “hyperlocal” meals, a bar, working spaces, and more amenities while traveling.
Cardholders have access along with two guests.
Other credit cards with Priority Pass Select membership such as American Express with its Platinum Card, will give cardholders one visit a year.
Chase is attempting to compete with other credit card lounges, including AmEx Centurion and Capital One lounges.
