LuxuryNovember 25, 2021

The world we currently live in is extremely subscription-obsessed. Haven’t you noticed?

These days you can find subscriptions for anything and everything whether it be clothes or hot sauce.

With the world slowly coming out of the pandemic-forced lockdown, travel has become more popular than ever before. Clearly staying indoors for a year can ignite a need to travel once the fears subside. This is exactly what global trends are seemingly signifying.

If you’re in a similar boat and are looking for some great travel deals to help cut the budget, we’ve got you covered!

Here are some of the best travel memberships that you can benefit from.

Formerly known as Private Suite, this service is specially designed for business-class and first-class travelers seeking convenience and privacy. We all know how much of a drag airport security can be, especially during weekends and holidays, so the service permits them to bypass LAX altogether. When traveling with PS, you can check into a private terminal where you have a private luxury suite complete with complimentary in-suite meals and other on-request services such as detailing services for personal cars, manicures, and massages.

PS at LAX offers an annual membership of $4,500, which offers a one-way Suite experience for up to four travelers. Members can also use the Salon for free, while non-members will have to pay an extra $695 per person.

This membership costs $600 per month plus a $600 enrollment fee. And you have to foot the nightly room costs yourself as well.
