I fly dozens of times a year. Chase's new lounges are a game changer — and don't require a first-class ticket.

• My Chase Sapphire Reserve credit card gives me access to airport lounges around the world.
• Most are part of the Priority Pass network, but new Chase-branded ones have joined the lineup.
• Chase's New York locations are cozy, modern, and can be enjoyed by economy-class passengers — regardless of airline.

As an avid traveler who traverses the Atlantic at least a dozen times a year and flies mostly in economy, one of my biggest comforts is airport lounge access.
