There may be some unhealthy information, although. Chase’s terrace at Austin-Bergstrom Worldwide Airport (AUS) might be closing early subsequent yr. When this house opened, the issuer had shared that it will be short-term (but it surely did not share how lengthy it will be open). It seems, airport authorities need to repurpose this house for public use, so Chase might be compelled to vacate subsequent yr.
In an unique assertion to TPG confirming the transfer, Chase mentioned that “we have cherished bringing our Chase Sapphire Terrace expertise to life at Austin Bergstrom. As this was at all times a short lived activation, the house will shut in March of 2025. We stay up for our cardmember’s continued enjoyment of this house via the approaching vacation season earlier than its deliberate closure.”
