Which Chase card gives you access to airport lounges?

Lounge access with Chase Sapphire Reserve Membership gives you access to over 1,300 lounges in more than 500 cities worldwide. Primary cardmembers and authorized users are allowed a maximum of 2 guests.



The primary card for lounge access is the Chase Sapphire Reserve®, which provides a complimentary Priority Pass™ Select membership, granting access to over 1,300 lounges worldwide. Additionally, this card gives you unlimited access to the growing network of Chase Sapphire Lounges by The Club, which are known for their high-end dining and wellness pods. Other eligible cards include the J.P. Morgan Reserve and the Ritz-Carlton™ Credit Card (which is no longer open to new applicants but remains active for current holders). In 2026, Chase has expanded its lounge footprint to major hubs like New York (JFK and LGA), Boston, and Las Vegas. It is important to note that the mid-tier Chase Sapphire Preferred® does not include a lounge membership. For business owners, the Ink Business Preferred® offers some travel perks but also lacks direct lounge access. If you have the Reserve card, you can also bring up to two guests for free, making it one of the most valuable cards for frequent travelers looking to escape the crowded terminal gates.
