Priority Pass™ levels: Cost and perks

Priority Pass is an airport lounge program that offers a variety of benefits to travelers all over the world. But did you know there are different membership options?

There are three Priority Pass membership plans when directly purchased with Priority Pass: Prestige, Standard Plus and Standard. Each comes with a specific price point and its own set of benefits. When you choose a membership level, there are several factors you may want to consider, including your travel habits, budget and goals.

Below, we break down  each Priority Pass membership plan and some ways to decide what's right for you.

Priority Pass membership plans

Depending on your travel needs, one membership may suit you better than others. For example, if you visit airport lounges often, the Standard Plus or Prestige plans may meet your needs. Or if you are only an occasional traveler, the Standard plan may be a better choice.

Here’s what to expect from the three Priority Pass membership levels:

Prestige

The Prestige Priority Pass plan provides members access to all lounges in the Priority Pass network with no additional visit fees (includes over 1,300 participating lounges). This plan may be a good option for the frequent traveler.

As of August 2025, the cost of a Priority Pass Prestige membership is $469 annually.

Standard Plus

The Standard Plus membership may be ideal for someone who is looking for a middle ground between Prestige and Standard. With the Standard Plus plan, members get ten complimentary lounge visits, after which a $35 visit fee is charged per visit. If you travel regularly but don't see yourself as a non-stop jet setter, this plan might make sense for you.

As of August 2025, the cost of a Priority Pass Standard Plus membership is $329 annually.

Standard

The Standard Priority Pass plan offers members lounge access at $35 per visit. As of August 2025, the cost of a Priority Pass Standard membership is $99 annually.

Can I bring a Priority Pass guest?

When you bring a guest to a lounge with a Priority Pass membership, there's a $35 fee per guest.

Keep in mind that individual airport lounges can have different rules about guests, but you can usually pay per guest if free guests are not admitted depending on their specific policies.

Other Priority Pass benefits

Priority Pass isn't only for airport lounges. There are several additional benefits to membership, including VIP experiences and business center resources, as well as complimentary meals and drinks.

No matter your Priority Pass level, the Priority Pass app also grants access to prebook private airline transfers on your phone. You can also shop the Duty-Free store ahead of time through the app and then pick your purchase up at the airport shop anytime. The premium fitness app WithU grants complimentary memberships to Priority Pass members and can create a personalized training program for you while you're on the road.

In summary

There are three Priority Pass membership plans offering a variety of comforts, perks and experiences no matter your travel plans. No matter how frequently you travel, there's likely a Priority Pass membership to suit your needs.
