Oops, just noticed this in my statement:
As of March 1, 2025 you will no longer have complimentary access to airport lounges in the Plaza Premium Group network. Most of those lounges can
now be accessed through your Priority Pass membership, which includes over 1,300 lounges worldwide. Learn more at capitalonetravel.com/lounges.
That's unfortunate, and a pretty significant downgrade:
1. There is a decent number of PlazaPremium lounges that do not take Priority Pass (I just visited 2 over the last month)
2. Direct access to Plaza Premium lounges provided 3 hours of stay (and so - 3 hours prior to the flight). Priority Pass gives 2 hours at the same lounges (so I used the Cap1 card to access even those that do take Priority Pass).
Wonder what other improvements await.
