You Can Now Enter These Airport Lounges With a Priority Pass Membership

Having a Priority Pass membership just got more valuable, as travelers can visit nearly a dozen more airport lounges in the U.S. before their next flight.

“Escape Lounges has announced an extension of its partnership with Priority Pass, enabling Priority Pass members to access an additional 10 of its common-use airport lounges across the United States as well as the Escape Lounge at Syracuse Hancock International Airport,” the third-party lounge company shared on its website.

Escape Lounges are primarily located in smaller to mid-sized airports, Priority Pass members can now enter with a confirmed airline ticket in any fare class at the following locations: 

  • Bradley International Airport (BDL) 
  • Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport (CVG) 
  • John Glenn Columbus International Airport (CMH)
  • Greenville-Spartanburg International Airport (GSP)
  • Minneapolis–Saint Paul International Airport (MSP)
  • Oakland International Airport (OAK)
  • Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport (PHX) at Terminal 3
  • Rhode Island T. F. Green International Airport (PVD)
  • Sacramento International Airport (SMF) at Terminal A
  • Sacramento International Airport (SMF) at Terminal B

There are a few exceptions, however. Priority Pass holders will not be able to access the Escape Lounges in Fort Lauderdale (FLL), Palm Beach (PBI), Phoenix (PHX) at Terminal 4, and Reno (RNO) even with the partnership update.

Previously, access to Escape Lounges lounges was restricted to those with an eligible American Express Platinum card or by purchasing a single-use pass, which starts at $32. 

Priority Pass is one of the most robus lounge memberships, offering access to more than 1,300 locations in the world. Even better, Priority Pass is a complimentary benefit of many premium travel rewards cards from various banks, including Capital One, Chase, and Citi. These include popular options like the Chase Sapphire Reserve and Capital One Venture X Rewards Credit Card.  

Escape Lounges are often much smaller than the average airport lounge but offer high-end amenities, such as a made-to-order food and drink menu. Based on capacity, travelers can enter up to three hours before their departure.
