No, you cannot give your Priority Pass card to a friend to use in your absence. Priority Pass memberships are strictly non-transferable. When a passenger enters a participating lounge in 2026, the lounge staff will verify that the name on the Priority Pass card matches the name on the boarding pass. If the names do not match, the friend will be denied entry. However, most Priority Pass tiers allow the member to bring guests into the lounge. If you are traveling with your friend, you can use your card to guest them in (though depending on your specific membership type, you may be charged a guest fee, typically around $35 per person). In 2026, many digital Priority Pass cards in Apple or Google Wallets are further protected by biometric ID, making it even more difficult to "share" an account. To avoid disappointment, ensure that the person holding the membership is physically present at the lounge reception desk.
