In 2026, the short answer is usually no; airport lounge passes are almost strictly non-transferable. Whether you are using a Priority Pass, an airline-specific membership (like United Club or Delta Sky Club), or a one-time digital pass, the name on the pass must match the name on the boarding pass presented at the reception desk. Most lounges now require a digital scan of your ID or passport alongside your membership credentials to prevent fraud. However, there is a distinct difference between "using" a pass and being a "guest." Most premium memberships allow the primary cardholder to bring in one or two guests for free or a discounted fee, provided the guests are traveling with the member. If you have a physical paper pass, check the fine print: some "one-time use" passes provided by credit cards can be handed to a friend, but only if they don't have a specific name printed on them. Attempting to let someone else use your digital membership without you being present will likely result in a denied entry and could potentially lead to your membership being flagged or revoked for a violation of terms.
