Credit Card Companies Are Restricting Access To Airport Lounges | Which Cards Give Unlimited Access?

If you use credit cards like HDFC's Regalia or the Cashback SBI Card, you'd probably have noticed by now that that your FREE access to airport lounges has now been restricted. In the last few months, many pictures and tweets went viral of extreme crowds at airport lounges. From being a service reserved for an exclusive set of people, many travellers have had access to credit cards that offer complimentary lounge access. BUT this is changing now. WATCH

Regalia Gold, IDFC Select/Wealth are still good cards for Lounge access

[@vivekh243]

Been there, don't need. Not sure why PPL want free food by standing in queue and not getting a place in the lounge. Insanity...

[@subhayu09]

You have shown The ICICI BANK CORAL VISA version , what about the Coral Rupay and Mastercard version ?

[@786_hsiie]

Without any doubt rupay cards are best for lounge acess

The rich say lounges have become a fishmarket recently.. I just want to ask them is there any rule against fishmarkets in airports??

[@bindir1421]

Infinia n magnus not mentioned

[@jestineabraham5185]

what abt axis ace and flipkart credit cards

[@Chitukuravi]

What about axis Bank cards, amex??

[@happysoul1274]

ICICI Coral is 35k per quarter

[@Nerd-tech-news]

All of them come with high annual fees..
I was expecting some lifetime free credit cards with atleast 1 lounge access per quarter.

[@subhankarmukherjee8142]

That’s a completely wrong exception. Most LTF card holders are low spenders. And offer no such value back to the financial organisations.
These services come at a cost, it shouldn’t be free for anyone who is not providing value back to banks.
This decision is 100% legit and should be upheld.

[@sudhishnair8414]

Scapia card offers unlimited lounge with just 5k monthly spends and the card is LTF

[@prodigal_prodigy]

LTF meaning?

[@sudhishnair8414]

Bank of Baroda Eterna Credit card is the best card in industry which offers unlimited complimentary lounge access

[@shandilya1989]

Lounge access must be restricted. It's been a fish market recently

[@cvrajendra]

You forgot axis magnus

[@BijayK21p8Q-je6lm]

Only the elites and riches have problems with others with lounge access and financial aspirations of middle class

[@anuragverma1720]

This mint channel is always having half of the information that why I did not like this

[@notoriousnerd]

Time to stop using them

[@angry_pp]

Not 1 rupee its 2 rupee

[@scout4430wonder]

HDFC is a shite card....

[@rangar1530]

Time to stop going to lounges. It looks like a meat market with every Tom, Dick or Harry getting access....

[@vivekh243]

Exactly, it's like a herd attacking on food without a place to sit in a hot and unhygienic environment

[@viki19910]

Meanwhile me: despite having multiple free lounge access not even used a single time for lounge😂. Coz I stopped going to airport 😂 only train
