The company sells three classes of memberships directly from its website, including Standard, Standard Plus, and Prestige, which each provide different levels of access. A fourth class of membership, Select, is included with certain credit cards.[1][2]
The program started adding services at airports other than lounges in 2017, such as airport hotels,[3] bars and restaurants.[1][4][5]
As of 2017, an increasing number of lounges were reportedly denying lounge access to Priority Pass members, with overcrowding being provided by lounges as a reason for turning away the members.[6] The Priority Pass website stated that denied access to lounges may be due to "an issue taking payment from the payment card" associated with Priority Pass membership.[7]
