This Tuesday, I’m sharing over my top card recommendation that comes with coveted airport lounge access in hundreds of locations across the world. As you venture t0 new places and destinations, this money, time (and sanity) saving travel tip will make each experience feel more special.

Writing this article from The Club at San Jose, fresh out of a hot shower, with a glass of wine and a warm cookie in my hand, I can confidently say that each of my ventures has been enhanced by having lounge access. And getting in, is actually easier than you think!

Credit Card: The Platinum Card from American Express is offering an extremely high 125000 point promo with the link above, worth over $4000 in travel savings and includes access to many great airline lounges including Priority Pass, Escape, and Delta Skyclub and is a MUST for frequent (or even infrequent) flyers with thousands of dollars in savings each year.

Priority Pass: Not interested in adding one more card to your credit report but still want the VIP treatment? Want dining credits at airports across the globe? My first venture into the lounge world was with Priority Pass and with it’s ever growing list of access, this is a great option without any long-term commitment.

You can review a great list of top airport lounges on this recent bleisureliving.com post. Whether you choose Platinum or Priority, your venturing spirit will thank you before (and in many airports after!) each flight.
