The flashiest incentives offered by some travel credit cards are the airport lounge access benefits. For those who would rather spend their pre-flight time relaxing in a cozy lounge with free food and drinks, there are several card options available.
Other common travel benefits that come with cards that offer lounge access include no foreign transaction fees, statement credits for application fees to Global Entry or TSA PreCheck and travel and purchase protection such as trip cancellation insurance, though exact benefits vary by card.
