Julia MenezHOST
First of all, it doesn't come with lounge access anymore if you book business class light on points, so that could be an issue.
Julia MenezHOST
If you're flying from the US over to France or Amsterdam using the Flying Blue program, and then you find the super saver price, and you're like, "Well, I have Priority Pass access.
Julia MenezHOST
I have a Capital One lounge from my home airport.
Julia MenezHOST
I have a Centurion Lounge.
AmandaHOST
Otherwise, we might consider flipping it.
AmandaHOST
It does come with a priority pass.
AmandaHOST
However, I do have a priority pass through my Amex Platinum.
AmandaHOST
So that does not do me a ton of good.
AmandaHOST
So if you are using a Venture X, it is a Visa.
AmandaHOST
And so the higher annual fee does almost instantly pay for itself.
AmandaHOST
My husband has a City Strata Elite, and we are keeping that one.
AmandaHOST
It gives him a priority pass with the kids for this year.
CecilPANELIST
If they did, it would kinda defeat the purpose, but we're getting there.
CecilPANELIST
Last year, Priority Pass, a membership network of mostly low and mid-tier lounges, saw a 31% increase in visits.
CecilPANELIST
By 2023, amid the post-pandemic travel boom, John F. Kennedy Airport had increased its lounge space in Terminal 4 alone to some 70,000 square feet, about the size of Bill Gates' mansion, Xanadu 2.
CecilPANELIST
Since then, the terminal has added another Xanadu's worth.
CecilPANELIST
Recently, I endeavored to visit as many lounges as I could in the span of a week without leaving New York, like Buntat but without the fraud.
CecilPANELIST
I have a fondness for free stuff, and a willingness on occasion to sit around and do nothing.
CecilPANELIST
I do not have status of any kind, but I do have a priority pass.
CecilPANELIST
Thus, I found myself at the HelloSky lounge in a busy corner of JFK's Terminal 4.
AlexHOST
It's going to be crazy how many different cards you're going to have that gets you into different lounges.
AlexHOST
And Chase is slowly starting to make their lounges more restrictive with only Chase Sapphire Reserve getting in over Priority Pass.
AlexHOST
And now the Southwest cards.
AlexHOST
And I'm curious if Chase Sapphire Reserve card members will be able to get into the Chase Southwest lounges.
46 MINS LATER
AlexHOST
Um, but he was like, what card do you have to express? And I showed him like the card and he was like, okay.
AlexHOST
And then just like manually overrode or something, which was kind of odd.
AlexHOST
Um, In Priority Pass, it said that there was a lounge right across from our gate.
AlexHOST
I think it was like gate B22 or something.
Matt ClaassenHOST
So hotel statuses, three for the Platinum, one for the CSR, two if you spend enough money.
Matt ClaassenHOST
There's still things that the Sapphire Reserve has to do to kind of catch up, right? Lounge network now, Sapphire Reserve has Sapphire Lounges, has Maple Leaf Lounges, has Priority Pass.
Matt ClaassenHOST
Platinum still has Priority Pass, Escape Lounges that are inside and outside of Priority Pass.
Matt ClaassenHOST
They have Centurion Lounges, which there's still way more Centurion Lounges than there are Sapphire Reserve Lounges.
Matt ClaassenHOST
As pretty as Sapphire Reserve Lounges are, more is more in terms of Centurion versus Sapphire Reserve.
Shawn CoomerHOST
But it's such a big part of this hobby for a lot of people.
Mark OstermannHOST
Yeah, if it's like a priority pass lounge, I'm probably just going to go sit at a bar or in the in the terminal.
Mark OstermannHOST
So I can find somewhere to kind of hang out, especially if I'm only there for an hour or so.
Mark OstermannHOST
Most of the time is just whatever.

she
Cameron LauferHOST
would also get her own Priority Pass membership for this $95 annual fee on the authorized user card.
Cameron LauferHOST
And then I could get more accelerators.
Cameron LauferHOST
On that card, there's only a couple of copyouts to that, though.
MicheleHOST
And we had a beautiful lunch before we headed out.
MicheleHOST
We go to the Singapore airport again, priority pass lounges, went to one of those.
MicheleHOST
And then it was time to fly over to Bali.
MicheleHOST
This flight, we actually went on KLM.
Mary EllenHOST
So cool.
Mary EllenHOST
They have now a new gaming lounge that's in the Priority Pass family where they have games.
Mary EllenHOST
My daughter sat down and started playing games.
Mary EllenHOST
What do you call the little Mario race cars or whatever? Mario Kart.
Emma WalbridgeGUEST
And that's ultimately how, you know, through the learnings of Gameway, Portal was born.
Julia MenezHOST
Can we get into this with different lounge sectors? passes and credit cards? Because I know that that's probably the question a lot of people are thinking about is like, can you get in this with Priority Pass? Does my Venture X work for this? Amex Platinum? How do you access these lounges?
Jordan WalbridgeGUEST
You know, the short answer is with Gameway, you're able to get in there with your Chase Sapphire card, which is a very popular.
Jordan WalbridgeGUEST
Obviously, we're tied in with Priority Pass.
Jordan WalbridgeGUEST
We have a phenomenal partnership with them and it continues to grow.
Jordan WalbridgeGUEST
So any one of our Gameway locations, if you have Priority Pass through that credit card, You're certainly welcome to use that and get in.
Jordan WalbridgeGUEST
You get a drink, a snack and an hour of gaming or a beer if that's what you prefer.
Jordan WalbridgeGUEST
And then on the portal lounge side.
