Access Priority Pass Lounges without your Card (Use Priority Pass App & Apple Wallet)

(Hat Tip to Travel Codex’s post and my friend Victor)

A few months ago, I wrote Access Centurion Lounges without your American Express Platinum Card. In that post, I showed how you could enter any Centurion Lounge (or Studio) without having your American Express Platinum Card. All you need to do is have the lounge attendant look you up by your SSN in American Express’s system. Until recently, it was impossible to access a Priority Pass lounge without presenting your physical Priority Pass card at the lounge. With the updated Priority Pass app (iOS or Android), you can now access most Priority Pass lounges with the app, no physical card required. Since I have an iPhone, I will show you how to access the lounge with the iOS app, but the process should be very similar for Android devices. Here is an introduction to the Priority Pass app. If you are new to the app, read about some of the built-in features and functionalities of the app.

Log into your Priority Pass account on the app. If you have your Priority Pass card but you do not have an online account, you will need to create a Priority Pass account online here. If you cannot create an account online, you can call Priority Pass (phone numbers) for help. Once you are logged in, click the QR code icon in the upper left corner.

Here is the QR code that will allow you to access the Priority Pass lounge. You can either show the lounge attendant the QR code in the app, or you can save it to your Apple Wallet or save the card as a photo in your camera roll. I added the card to my Apple Wallet so I don’t have to have the physical card with me to enter the lounges. Supposedly, when I approach a Priority Pass lounge, my iPhone should prompt me to show my Priority Pass card on the screen.

You can view additional information and settings in the Priority Pass app. You should also enable WiFi only downloads and update the app data so you have the latest lounge info.

In the My Account section, you can view the expiration date of your membership and all of your visits (I haven’t used my Priority Pass card in the last year).

To search for Priority Pass lounges, type the name of the airport or airport code. For San Francisco (SFO), there is an Air France / KLM Lounge in the International Terminal. When you click on the lounge, you will see additional information like hours of operations, location, amenities, whether the digital card is accepted, and rules for entering. In this case, you can only use the Air France / KLM lounge if you have a flight departing Concourse A (aka the International Terminal). If you are not departing from the International Terminal, you will not be able to access the lounge.

If you have any questions, please leave a comment below. Happy travels everyone!

Just updated Priority Pass and it deleted my visits. No biggy though.

That’s strange, I would think it would pull your account info to the recent visit section, but maybe not.

Doesn’t work for Android any suggestions?

Haha, don’t forget your Priority Pass card then 🙂

It doesnt show me a qr code, why.

Are you using the iPhone app?

It happens to me too

Yes. Customer service replied that my membership (provided by my credit card) doesn’t allow digital card function.

Hmm, that is strange. I guess you will have to bring your Priority Pass card with you then 🙁

Also if you read https://www.prioritypass.com/member-support/apps it says that “Remember that not all lounges can accept the Digital Membership Card, so please carry your Priority Pass Card whenever you travel.”

That may be true, but I’ve always had success using the Priority Pass app. I believe they can also look you up in the system by your Priority Pass number, which you can find within the Priority Pass app.

Bristol aspire plus lounge

I don’t know where to start. Just having checked into the Aspire plus lounge at Bristol UK airport (BRS) and having paid an additional £30 for myself and my husband so that we sat away from the holidaying public. I poured both of us a drink — being used to doing so at other airports lounges and British Airways lounges. I asked for tonic to go with the drink and was then both challenged and reprimanded in front of others for pouring my own drink. The assistant then continued to challenge back when I mentioned both that there wasn’t a sign that said or that she wasn’t there to serve me when I arrived. Her challenge went on for 10mins — why would I then want to stay. I am now feeling really upset and very embarrassed. An awful experience.

Hi, I’m disappointed to hear you’ve had a bad experience at this lounge. As this is a dedicated technical support platform, should you wish to query or raise any concerns, we ask that you kindly contact our Membership Support Team who are available 24 hours a day. Contact details can be found on our website. Zoe

An app for travellers that has no clue where you are

It is hard to believe, but the priory pass app, which is designed for people on the move to find things while they travel, completely lacks location awareness!

That means that when I am standing at Heathrow airport, the iPhone knows where I am, Facebook and foursquare know where I am, Google maps knows where I am, but priority pass is clueless.

When you open the app looking for a lounge at Heathrow airport, priory pass looks up at you with an innocent face saying «please sir, tell me which airport you would like to know about» 🙂

Developer Response ,

Hi Jay, thanks for your feedback. For a short time, the nearest lounge feature will not be available on the Priority Pass app, while we conduct some upgrades. We apologize for any inconvenience. Many thanks, Leah
