PRO TIP: The Chase Sapphire Reserve's Priority Pass has a huge perk at Denver International Airport. [Hint: It's free fucking food/beverage.]

It's no secret that I think the Chase Sapphire Reserve is the fucking tits.  I've written about how it was instrumental in getting me a free flight to Sydney Australia.  Well, now a friend has informed me that the Priority Pass is pretty awesome at Denver International Airport (DIA).  For those that aren't aware, you get a free priority pass when you sign up for the Chase Sapphire Reserve.  I've been pretty lukewarm on it since their lounges don't seem to be in airports I use and it seems like when there is one, it's not in the terminal I usually fly out of (I'm a United whore).

Much to my surprise when my friend told me that since there's no lounge at DIA, you can go to Timberline Grill in Terminal C and get $28 worth of food and drink with your priority pass and an outgoing boarding pass (sorry, you can't land at DIA then stuff your fucking face).  That's pretty damn good - you can even bring a guest, so the two of you can enjoy $56 of food and beverage (bring a hooker if you have to, this is a great deal).  That's a picture of his receipt above.  Oh, and PSA for my peeps in the service industry: you should still tip.  Don't be that fucking person who says 20% of 0 is 0 because you'll get hit by a bus the next time you're crossing the street.

To me, this just makes the Chase Sapphire Reserve an even better card.  It's always hard to quantify the monetary value of going into a lounge.  Yeah, you get a cup of mixed nuts, a can of Pineapple Juice, a nicer place to shit, and you don't have to fight with the poor people for electrical outlets to charge your phone.  That's worth a different amount to different people.  But this Timberline deal?  Fuck.  I know exactly how much $56 is worth.  Websites like the Points guy always recycle the Chase Sapphire Preferred vs. Chase Sapphire Reserve blog post, but if you live in Denver or fly into/out of here often, add that perk to the mix.

Finally, if you don't have the Chase Sapphire Reserve yet, get off your ass and use my referral link.  I get 10,000 bonus points for each person that signs up, and you get nothing special in return.  Sorry, that's just how the world works.
