The airport lounges are still mostly closed. This is particularly true at Montreal-Trudeau International Airport – International Departures, where the Air Canada Maple Leaf Lounge, the National Bank Lounge and the Desjardins Odyssey Lounge are currently closed.

This is especially annoying for travellers with credit cards offering annual visits to these lounges (and who have paid an annual fee for their card).

As a gesture to its customers, Desjardins has taken an excellent initiative by offering travellers a $25 credit per person directly on their account.

If you are a Desjardins Odyssey World Elite Mastercard or Desjardins Odyssey Visa Infinite Privilege cardholder, you can contact customer service at the number on the back of your card. Our reader tried it and got a $75 credit for himself and the 2 travellers accompanying him.

Please note that by doing so, you are using annual passes to the Desjardins Odyssey Lounge available on your card (8 passes per year with the Desjardins Odyssey World Elite Mastercard and 12 passes per year with the Desjardins Odyssey Visa Infinite Privilege Card).

You could get a total credit of $200 if you have a Desjardins Odyssey World Elite Mastercard and $300 if you have a Desjardins Odyssey Visa Infinite Privilege Card.

Good job Desjardins!
