* This is a collaborative post

Are you tired of long waiting hours in uncomfortable, overcrowded, and noisy airport areas every time you fly somewhere? Of course, there is a way to avoid all that, and it’s called an airport lounge. We bet your first thought is that you can’t afford that. 

Luckily for you, we know how to achieve affordable lavishness, and we share our knowledge here. Study our tips in this guide to wallet-friendly lounge access and get ready for the most pleasant holidays of your life! 

Tip 1: A Day’s Treat
People who haven’t visited an airport lounge or don’t travel frequently should try day passes for starters. Think of them as single tickets that grant you full access to a specific lounge area for a limited time period —several hours, to be more specific. Based on the quality of the lounge, you’ll see that there is a wide price range. You can view and compare wallet-friendly lounge access options at various UK airports on bookfhr.com, where what’s included in the price is clearly stated. You should pay extra attention to the time period it’s valid for and synchronise it with your flight time.

Tip 2: Fly Again and Again (with the same airline)
If you have found the airline that you trust for all your travels, you should join their frequent flyer programme —all major airlines have such a scheme. It is free to join, and they keep track of the services you’ve used. The more you work with this business, the more benefits you earn. Such benefits include air miles, ticket upgrades, and free lounge access. Additionally, clients who are frequent flyers are usually offered better-priced airline lounge memberships.


Tip 3: Third-Party Lounges
Not all airport lounges belong to airlines. Some belong to airports and others to third-party businesses. They are of equal quality and prestige, offering all the luxuries and comforts that any traveller would need. You can pay an annual membership subscription and gain access to lounges in various airports around the world. This tip in our guide to wallet-friendly lounge access is ideal for people who travel a lot, especially for business reasons.

Tip 4: Take Advantage of Your Credit Card
If you have got or you’re thinking about getting a credit card, you should take a closer look at the perks it offers. Did you know that many premium and even some mid-tier credit cards offer complimentary lounge access? Yes, they do, and you should check if you are eligible for such a travel perk. If you are, chances are you’ll be given access to a wide network of lounges worldwide. If you are unsure where to look for your credit card perks, call your bank.
