I’ve been flying in and out of Cleveland (CLE) so much lately, and honestly, I’m getting tired of grabbing sad sandwiches and overpriced coffee at the gate. I keep hearing about these fancy credit cards that get you into airport lounges with free food and drinks, but I can’t figure out which one actually delivers. I’m not talking about a stale cookie and a can of soda—I want real meals and maybe a glass of wine or two, especially when I’m stuck on a layover at places like Chicago O’Hare (ORD) or Newark (EWR). I’ve looked up reviews, but they all sound the same, and half the time, the lounges they mention aren’t even in the airports I use most. And don’t get me started on the ones that say they have food, but it’s just a bowl of pretzels. Has anyone actually found a card that’s worth it for the food and drinks, especially at places like Nashville (BNA), Denver (DEN), or Dallas (DFW)? I’m not interested in points or travel insurance—I just want to eat and relax without paying $20 for a salad. If you’ve found a card that’s actually good for this, especially in the Midwest and South, I’d love to hear about it. I feel like I’m missing out while everyone else is sipping cocktails and I’m stuck with airport fast food. Anyone else feel this way? #airportlounge #creditcardtips #midwesttravel #Travel
