For a weekend vacation, Akshay was travelling to Goa. Because he spent more than ₹5,000 last quarter, he was able to get free lounge access at the airport by showing his ICICI MakeMyTrip Platinum Credit Card.
He relaxed with free snacks, Wi-Fi, and comfy seating, far from the crowded terminal. His long trip went notably better later that year when he took advantage of his one complimentary international lounge pass during a layover in Dubai.
Akshay's journeys were experiences rather than merely trips because of his card.
