How to get Priority Pass membership
Travelers can obtain a Priority Pass membership in two ways: either by purchasing a membership online, or by having a travel credit card that provides a complimentary membership.
Purchase a Priority Pass membership
There are three tiers of Priority Pass membership available for purchase: Standard, Standard Plus and Prestige.
Depending on how much you travel, one option might be better than another. For example, frequent travelers may benefit from the Prestige membership, while occasional travelers may want to opt for Standard or Standard Plus.
Complimentary Priority Pass Select Membership with Chase Sapphire Reserve
If you have a Chase Sapphire Reserve credit card, you can receive a complimentary Priority Pass Select membership. This type of membership differs from the other three tiers because it’s specifically for customers of U.S. banks and financial institutions.
While the membership is complimentary for Chase Sapphire Reserve cardmembers, keep in mind that the Chase Sapphire Reserve comes with an annual fee. If you prefer a credit card that offers travel benefits, though, you may find that the annual fee is worth it.
