Can someone else use my lounge key?

No, only the person named on the LoungeKey Pass voucher will be able to use the voucher to access the lounge.



Generally, you cannot allow someone else to use your LoungeKey or Priority Pass membership without you being physically present. Most airport lounge access programs are strictly non-transferable and are tied to the name printed on the physical or digital membership card, which must match the name on the passenger's boarding pass. When you arrive at a lounge, the staff will scan your QR code or swipe your card and verify your identity. If you try to give your card to a friend or family member while you are not traveling with them, they will likely be denied entry. However, in 2026, many premium credit cards that offer LoungeKey allow for guest entries. This means that as the primary member, you can bring one or two people into the lounge with you, though depending on your specific bank's policy, you may be charged a fee (typically around $35) per guest. Some high-end "infinite" or "elite" cards provide unlimited guest access, but the requirement remains that the primary account holder must be part of the traveling group and present at the time of entry.
