Lounge bandara gratis pakai JCB
Updated: Feb 25, 2025
Hai, hari ini saya membahas benefit kartu kredit yang bahkan saya lupa keberadaannya.
Sejarahnya, saya sudah lama memiliki kartu kredit BCA JCB. JCB ini kepanjangannya Japan Credit Bureau. (Bisa dibilang underdog sistem pembayaran karena gak seterkenal VISA dan Mastercard).
Benefitnya sih terasa saat di terminal 3 Ultimate Cengkareng Jakarta ya, di Krispy Kreme dapat bonus 1 Donat & 1 Kopi. Tapi selain itu… saya belum pernah merasakan manfaatnya di bandara lain….. hingga sekarang.
Dari awal diberikan kartu ini, sebenarnya sudah ada notifikasi bahwa gratis 6x lounge bandara per tahun. Sayangnya, tidak ada bandara domestik, adanya di:
Jepang
Hawaii
Cina
Korea Selatan
Taiwan
Jerman
Inggris
Vietnam
Singapura
Malaysia
Jelas lah yaaa… paling dekat itu di Malaysia, itupun hanya 1 lounge, sphere lounge di KLIA. Kalau di Singapura, ada 3 lounge di changi, sayangnya saya juga belum ada kesempatan menggunakannya. Negara lain di daftar? Belum ada niat ke sana jugaaa. Jadi, akhirnya benefit ini hanya tersimpan jauh di sudut kepala saya.
Eh… tiba-tiba keluarga mengajak ke vietnam. Jujur ini di luar bucket list saya, tapi saya research dan ternyata vietnam sepertinya seru ya. Dan saya baru sadar mata uangnya sedikit lebih rendah dari kita, misal 100.000 Vietnam Dong itu hanya 60-70 ribuan rupiah.
Berangkatlah kami ke vietnam, sungguh pengalaman yang luar biasa!!! Akan saya share di postingan lain ya. Begitu tiba saatnya pulang, saya dan keluarga pisah di bandara Tan Son Nhat (TSN) Ho Chi Minh city, karena saya tujuan medan, sementara mereka ke Jakarta.
Saat strolling around santai di bandara TSN, saya tak sengaja melihat ROSE lounge yang letaknya agak di ujung, dan tampaklah logo JCB di situ. Berhubung saya pemalu untuk bertanya, saya jadi googling dulu, bener gak nih ya? Ada di list kah? Eh ternyata:
ADAAAAA!!!
Alhamdulillah… seperti rezeki nomplok nih. Jadinya memberanikan diri untuk masuk ke Rose lounge ini.
Awalnya, kita tunjukin dulu kartu kredit JCB kita. Kemudian si petugas akan mengecek dan menggesek kartu kredit JCB ke mesin mereka. Dan tentunya berhasil saudara-saudara! Masuk gratis ke lounge bandara! Yeaayyy!!!
All You Can Eat! (Haha, maaf saya agak norak ya)
Bakal makan kenyang gratis deh, padahal udah siapin budget untuk makan makanan bandara yang biasanya overpriced ya kan.
Setelahnya, tinggal duduk tenang sambil tunggu panggilan boarding deh. Kelebihan lounge bandara yang letaknya setelah cap petugas imigrasi ya kita tinggal hitung waktu jalan ke gate aja. Ada lounge bandara yang sebelum imigrasi, hati-hati atur waktunya sebab bisa jadi antri panjang malah telat naik pesawat.
Overall, puas banget dengan Kartu Kredit JCB ini. Iuran tahunan kartu kreditnya juga bisa di waive asal memenuhi syarat. Makan di bandara itu biasanya overpriced jadi ada benefit lounge bandara gratis gini tentunya jadi rezeki tersendiri ya. Bagi teman-teman yang doyan traveling, terutama ke negara-negara yang saya sebut di atas, mungkin kartu kredit JCB ini bisa jadi pendamping kartu kredit VISA dan Mastercard teman-teman.
Salam sehat dan semoga lancar traveling ya,
Adrian

Pengalaman pribadi
There is something approachable about discussing discovering the cultural heritage of Lusatia through situations people can actually picture. Language and local stories can reveal connections that are easy to miss on a map. That is the kind of detail I would keep in mind while exploring Lusatian cultural heritage. A short discussion of an everyday example would make this easier for me to connect with, especially as someone still learning about the subject. How would you introduce regional heritage through a classroom project?
Thinking about making particle physics approachable, I find the smaller practical questions more interesting than a quick conclusion. An everyday analogy can help introduce an idea while still leaving room to explain its limits. It gives me a more concrete starting point for thinking about particle physics basics. I would be interested in a simple example, because it is often the ordinary details that make an idea memorable. Which comparisons make particle physics easier to picture without creating misconceptions?
When it comes to connecting school learning with Wasilkow, I would rather understand one useful detail properly than rush through a long list of ideas. A project about nearby places can give students a shared starting point for research. This is why I would approach Wasilkow school community with a specific question rather than a fixed expectation. The part I would like to explore further is what happens when the idea meets a real situation with its own limitations. Which community questions could students investigate through interviews or observation?
My first thought about sharing cultures through language learning is that the everyday experience deserves as much attention as the larger explanation. An everyday conversation can reveal cultural habits that a vocabulary list cannot explain. Seen this way, European cultural exchange becomes a topic to explore rather than something to sum up too quickly. I can imagine different answers depending on the situation, so I would want to understand the context before drawing conclusions. What kinds of shared activities make an exchange feel meaningful?
What interests me about supporting the move into secondary school is how a broad idea becomes part of an ordinary day. New routines can take time to become familiar even when a student enjoys the lessons. It gives me a more concrete starting point for thinking about secondary school transition. I would probably come back to this question after trying to work through one concrete example rather than deciding immediately. Which parts of the school day need the clearest introduction for new students?
