Answering Points and Miles Listener Questions (CLIP)

This is a clip from a recent full-length podcast episode:    • Best Credit Cards For Airport Lounge Acces...   Best Credit Cards for Airport Lounge Access | Priority Pass, Chase Sapphire, Amex Centurion, Capital One & Airline Clubs Justin Vacula of the Hurdy Gurdy Travel Podcast is joined by returning co-host Darren to discuss the best credit cards for airport lounge access, including Priority Pass, Chase Sapphire Lounges, Capital One Lounges, Amex Centurion Lounges, United Clubs, Delta Sky Clubs, Admirals Clubs, and other airline lounge options. In this episode, Justin and Darren explain how airport lounge access can save travelers money on food and drinks, make layovers and delays more comfortable, and sometimes even help with rebooking when airline agents inside lounges are available. They start with Priority Pass credit cards, including beginner-friendly options like the U.S. Bank Altitude Connect, which offers four Priority Pass visits with no annual fee, and premium options like the Bilt Palladium Card, Chase Ritz-Carlton Card, and Chase Sapphire Reserve. They discuss lounge visit limits, guest access, authorized users, annual fees, and how Chase Sapphire Lounge access fits into the Priority Pass ecosystem. The episode also covers airline lounge credit cards, including the United Explorer Card with two United Club passes and the United Club Card with unlimited United Club access. Justin and Darren compare these with the Capital One Venture X, which offers Capital One Lounge and Priority Pass access, plus Amex Platinum, Business Platinum, and Delta Reserve cards for Centurion Lounge and Delta Sky Club access. They also discuss American Airlines lounge access, including the Citi AAdvantage Executive Card for Admirals Club access and the Cardless Qatar Airways Visa Infinite, which can grant Qatar Airways Gold and Oneworld Sapphire status for potential American Airlines Flagship Lounge and Admirals Club access. Listener questions cover how to find lounge locations using resources like thislounge.com, the current state of Priority Pass restaurant access, and which cards may be best depending on your home airport, travel habits, airline loyalty, and willingness to pay annual fees. Justin also shares upcoming travel plans using Amex Fine Hotels & Resorts credits, Hyatt stays, and Hilton free night certificates. — 🎙️ 📢 Listen to the Hurdy Gurdy Travel Podcast: 👉 SoundCloud →   / hurdygurdytravelpodcast   👉 Apple Podcasts / iTunes → https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast... 👉 Spotify → https://open.spotify.com/show/0PRUx83... 👉 iHeartRadio → https://www.iheart.com/podcast/269-hu... 👉 …and many other podcast platforms worldwide! 🌍🎧 📡 Prefer using your favorite app?
