Update: Lounge is now open, some photos of the space below
Chase has announced it will be opening a new ‘lounge space’ called Sapphire Terrace in the Austin-Bergstrom International Airport. Unlike other Chase lounges this will be exclusively for Chase Sapphire Reserve cardholders (they can also bring up to two guests). The lounge will be open from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. daily.
The space itself seems unremarkable currently, it’s an outside area with a few chairs. Chase has stated the lounge will offer ‘complimentary local beverages (like cider from Austin Eastciders and beer from (512) Brewing Company as well as non-alcoholic beverages), convenient grab-and-go bites, shuffleboard and giveaways’.
It will be interesting to see if Chase does more of these Chase only lounges or will stick with the partnership with Airport Dimensions where Priority Pass cardholders can also access the lounges.
