Back in March we had mentioned that Diners Club had expanded their lounge access program (this is the program where you use your Diners Club card not the Priority Pass that also comes with the card) and now they have expanded it even further. In March the total number of lounges you could access with your Diners Club card was just 350 and that has now grown to over 400. Of particular interest to us Canadians is the expansion of the program to include more lounges in Canada. After the first expansion only the KLM Crown Lounge in Toronto was participating but now there is access to lounges in Calgary (2), Montreal, Quebec City and Winnipeg. A quick glance at the list of lounges shows a large increase in the amount of lounges one can access south of the border.
This card keeps getting stronger after a bit of a lull when it was be pawned off by Citibank and we here at Rewards Canada can only anxiously await its return to the general public. Meanwhile us current cardholders can sit back and relax….. in one of the many more lounges now available.
