      Imagine freshening up with Molton Brown bath products in a sleek shower during your layover, before taking your favorite cocktail or coffee drink out to relax by a fireplace on an outdoor terrace until it’s time to board.

      Airport lounge access is one of the many benefits available to Chase Sapphire Reserve cardmembers, and the network you can experience just got considerably larger. A new partnership with Air Canada means cardmembers can enjoy more premium airport lounge locations across the globe.

      Many of Air Canada’s U.S. and international lounge locations are now available to Chase Sapphire Reserve cardmembers and authorized users. If you’re a Sapphire Reserve cardmember flying Air Canada—or another airline in the Star Alliance network, such as United or Lufthansa—you and one free guest can now visit select Maple Leaf Lounges across the U.S., Canada and Europe.
