Hello,

Hopefully I put this forem in the right place. I had a question of which airline credit card is best to gain access to lounges. I currently fly out of southern california (LAX mainly but whenever I can avoid it I do) to New York, Hong Kong, and Tokyo. Only fly about 1-2 international and maybe 2 domestic flights a year. Mainly looking into lounge access for the international flights.
I only fly enough to get 35000-45000 miles a year so it is hard for me to earn a high enough status to gain it that way.
In addition I have flown on
AA
Delta
Continental
United
LH

Which means I have miles in all three different alliance programs and am not too particular about a particular one yet (though I researching it). I originally was going to apply to continental credit card and get two free passes a year but got scared off by the merger with united.

What are your opinions on gaining lounge access.
(I also know there is priority pass but do not think it is right for me unless it is cheap through credit card)

In addition, if there is a particular milege program that can get me into a lounge (like Koren Air seems to be decent although no mile bonus for statue) I would be interested in knowing that as well.
