How to access Priority Pass lounges at San Juan Airport

You may access either location of The Lounge by either buying a day pass or using a Priority Pass membership entitlement.

After signing up for a Priority Pass membership, you'll receive a membership card in the mail to access participating lounges in their network. Show the card along with your ID and boarding pass to enter a lounge.  

You may also download the Priority Pass mobile app to access a digital version of your membership card.

Another way to access lounges is by having a travel credit card that offers complimentary Priority Pass Select membership, like the Chase Sapphire Reserve card. Keep in mind that most travel credit cards, like Chase Sapphire Reserve, have annual fees to offset benefits. However, you may find the card is worth the fees is you frequently use the related travel benefits.
