To start or end a trip on a high note, nothing beats the joy of lounging quietly in an airport lounge, with unlimited food and drinks!
Note that it is always a good idea to check the access conditions before your trip, as they can change without notice.
In addition, even with the required access, entry may be refused because the lounge is full or because it gives priority to certain types of passengers.
Different airport lounge networks give access to certain lounges or not, depending on their agreements. The largest networks that give access to airport lounges with credit cards are:
