Credit card issuers compete on many fronts, but one area that has been heating up the most is airport lounges. Chase is making strides in this area with its Chase Sapphire Lounges by The Club. To get access, you'll need the right credit card.
Currently, nine Chase lounges are open, but its one international lounge at Hong Kong International Airport (HKG) will close Jan. 5, 2026. There are confirmed plans for two more U.S. lounges in the future.
Although American Express remains the undisputed heavyweight in this arena with its Global Lounge Collection, Capital One has also made a foray into the field with its Capital One airport lounges. With more lounges opening all the time, it's important to keep up with what your options are at any airport you transit through.
