Southwest to open lounges at 4 airports, including Baltimore
Key Points:
- Southwest Airlines is partnering with Chase Bank to create an airport lounge network, including a location at Baltimore-Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport.
- Construction is underway for lounges at four other airports: Austin-Bergstrom, Daniel K. Inouye (Honolulu), and Nashville international airports.
- The lounges are expected to open in late 2027, with access tied to Chase's new premium Southwest Rapid Rewards credit card launching the same year.
- Tony Roach, Southwest's executive vice president, emphasized the lounges will enhance the customer experience and strengthen the airline's long-standing partnership with Chase.
- Additional lounges are planned for up to seven more airports in the future.
