Priority Pass lounges at MCO

MCO has three lounges in the Priority Pass network. Each lounge is family friendly, and children under two receive complimentary access.

Below are details about the locations and amenities of each one:

The Club MCO – Terminal A Concourse 1

This Club lounge features sleek and modern designs complemented by a warm color palette, inviting you to feel the luxury. Take a seat amongst any of the spacious and comfortable furnishings. Amenities include a workstation with a PC and printer, as well as a complimentary shower facility.

This location of The Club is located on the main concourse of gates 1-29 and is accessible to all passengers with a boarding pass to those gates. Passengers not departing from gates 1-29 will need to pass through security and allow sufficient time to reach their departure gate.

The Club MCO – Terminal B Concourse 4

Comfort and variety are staples of this lounge's design. Large windows enliven the lounge, where you can focus in a quiet area or chat up friends and other guests elsewhere. There's also a conference space, workstations with computers, showers and a kids' area.

This location is near gate 91 and accessible from gates 70-99. This location is accessible to all passengers with a boarding pass for those gates; passengers from other departing gates should leave time to pass through security.

Plaza Premium Lounge Orlando – Terminal C

Because Orlando is a popular spot for family vacations, this lounge is designed with family in mind. But if you’re traveling for business or want a quiet space to relax, there’s also a dedicated “quiet zone” with views of the tarmac. Other amenities include a kids’ entertainment space and luxury washrooms like spa-like shower facilities.

The Plaza Premium Lounge can be found on the second level of Terminal C, near gate 241.

How to access Priority Pass lounges at Orlando MCO

Enroll in a membership with Priority Pass

For example, a Standard membership has fees for each member and guest visits. Meanwhile, the Prestige plan doesn't have fees for member visits but does have fees for guest visits.

Receive complimentary Priority Pass membership with a travel credit card

Certain travel credit cards, like the Chase Sapphire Reserve card, provide complimentary Priority Pass Select membership. Priority Pass Select is a membership tier for customers of a U.S. bank or financial institution. Note that this card has an annual fee.

Purchase a single-use pass
