Chase is moving forward with a brand‑new Sapphire Lounge at Miami International Airport. The county’s documents show a 13,793‑square‑foot space slated for Concourse E, perched on the third floor above Gate E7.
The lease agreement is estimated to bring more than $93 million to Miami‑Dade County over a 15‑year term. That figure comes straight from the blueprint filing, so it’s not speculation.
Access will be limited to “select Chase Sapphire cardholders,” which aligns with the brand’s existing lounge network. No further details about amenities or opening dates have been released.
What does this mean for you? If you already hold a Chase Sapphire card, you can expect another lounge option when you travel through Miami. If you’re not a cardholder, there’s nothing actionable yet—just keep an eye on future communications from Chase.
Bottom line: the upcoming Miami Sapphire Lounge is officially in the works, with a sizeable footprint and a hefty projected lease revenue. Until Chase announces an opening date or more specifics, treat it as a future perk rather than an immediate benefit.
