New Delhi. Waiting at the airport is the most boring thing during air travel. If you arrive at the airport before flight time or have a lot of time between connecting flights, airport lounge entry is very useful. Now accessing lounges at airports has become very easy. Now you don't even need to have a physical credit or debit card. You can access the lounge by making a UPI payment of just Rs 2 using your chosen Rupay credit card.
Recently RuPay Exclusive Lounge has been opened near Gate No. 41 at Indira Gandhi International Airport Terminal 3, Delhi. Here you can currently enter through selected RuPay cards. The special thing is that now you can also avail lounge access by scanning QR code and making UPI payment of Rs 2 through select RuPay cards.
