The network of Chase Sapphire Lounges is continuing to grow. Up until this point, there have been Chase Sapphire Lounges in Boston (BOS), Hong Kong (HKG), New York (JFK), New York (LGA), Phoenix (PHX), San Diego (SAN), and Washington (IAD), with more being developed.

Much less exciting, but the PHL lounge scene is further improving with a remodel to the Delta Sky Club, adding an additional 2k+ square feet, currently scheduled to open in Q4 2025 (per a Delta press release from January).
Can only hope this helps ease crowds at the Centurion. Was a 90 minute wait last time I flew out of PHL.
Is there any documentation of the exception to the three-hour access rule if you're connecting. AA sells a lot of itineraries with really long connections in PHL and every time I've tried to access the Chase lounge before 3 hours prior to departure, I've been told there are no exceptions to the rule, even for connecting passengers.
^This. Where did you get this policy from? I have yet to see it anywhere on Chase or Priority Pass' websites. It would be good to be able to back it up if questioned
I think I speak for many PHL-based flyers when I say I'll take what I can get at my home airport. That said, this is a great lounge in such a terrible location. This will be most useful for connecting AA pax with long layovers, but they're concentrated in Terminals A-C and F. Not much connecting traffic over in Terminals D and E. Most premium local traffic is captive by AA, and these folks do not have a habit of getting to PHL earlier than necessary just to use a lounge.
I love how chase just opens a lounge and it's open! vs Amex would tout about a lounge years ago (e.g., EWR) that's going to be opening in 2026 and once you've gotten to 2026, it's delayed to 2027,..
Game changer for my weekly travel. Amex has been a disaster in PHL with long lines and dirty space.
The location isn’t optimal for most my flights but it’ll be worth it to make the walk if the quality is as they claim.
Middle Child is a great get for the food program here. I guess this partnership also explains why they were going so hard after the Vegas restaurant group that tried to steal their brand.
Excited to try the lounge and very curious how busy it gets given the location
As a PHL-based flier, isn't this a good thing? I'm happy to walk out of my way for a lounge that isn't an overcrowded wreck like Centurion or the rat infested B/C Admirals. The perk of it being less crowded is the cherry on top.
Wow. This lounge is WAY better than the other lounges in PHL. I just hope it doesn't get overcrowded like the other PHL lounges.
Centurion lounge crowding at PHL is ridiculous from my experience. Basically unusable due to wait times. Has me thinking to cancel my Platinum AMEX as this was a big selling point.
