Heaven in an airport + why you should hire me.
Airports don't have to suck. Here's how.
You haven’t lived until you’ve airport lounged.
A true wine & dine experience.
I’m writing this from the DFW Capital One lounge (yes, it feels awesome).
Today, we’re talking all about how to get into airport lounges.
Few things will elevate your travel more.
Lounging 101:
Let’s just say it together, airports suck.
Odor. People rushing. Anxiety in the air.
But, have you ever walked past one of those magical lounges with White House-level security you occasionally see a well-dressed business traveler slide into?
You can get into those.
I’m in one now - check it out:
Cookie was fire btw.
Here are a few difficult ways and easy ways to get in.
Difficult.
▶️ Buy a first-class ticket.
▶️ Get elite status with an airline for their lounge.
▶️ Pay for access with points/cash.
▶️ Be a veteran.
Easy.
▶️ Buy a day pass or annual pass on lounge buddy.
▶️ Travel with someone who has access.
▶️ (The best) Get a credit card with lounge access!
There are a number of credit cards that can get you access. What you want to look for is Priority Pass.
Priority Pass is a network of over 1,300 lounges. Many premium credit cards give you unlimited access. Unfortunately, these are mostly high annual fee cards.
Often, these high annual fees are worth it, though. I would look at the Chase Sapphire Reserve and the Capital One Venture X. These both offer Priority Pass and have a high annual fee.
The Capital One Venture Rewards ($95 annual fee) does get you two lounge accesses per year at the Capital One Lounges.
That’s how I got in.
For those who don’t travel much, it’s a great option.
Lounge access is a perk you’re gonna pay for, but you probably won’t regret it on your next long layover.
Pitch, please.
I never do this.

I do paid consulting calls where I teach you everything you need to know about points & miles.
My clients get a strategy to optimize earning & redeeming points. And they walk away knowing how to book the trips of their dreams.

Getting testimonials like this all the time:
I charge $199 for the 90-minute consultation, and you have a money-back guarantee if you don’t save $1,200+.
That’s a solid ROI.
