Expert Advice: Your lounge access may have been declined due to changes in your credit card’s lounge access program. Many banks and credit card issuers have started linking the lounge benefit to monthly or quarterly spend milestones, which means you are now required to meet a certain spend threshold to be eligible for free lounge access. It is also possible that the lounge access benefit may have been removed altogether from your card.
Banks and credit card issuers often revise terms mid-year, and they usually notify customers in advance through email, SMS, or monthly statements.
To ensure lounge access on your next visit, check the latest benefit terms on your card issuer’s website or app and ensure that you meet any updated eligibility criteria for free lounge access on your card.
If you travel frequently and visit airport lounges often, I would suggest you get a travel-focused credit card that not only offers lounge access but also offers other travel perks like free air miles, hotel benefits, etc.
