Star Alliance Gold Track is offered to customers who have Star Alliance Gold Status or who are travelling with Star Alliance member airlines in First Class or Business Class.

To access the Star Alliance Gold Track (which provides priority security and immigration lanes at over 150 airports), you must achieve Star Alliance Gold status. This status is not earned directly through the alliance itself but by reaching an elite tier in the frequent flyer program of any Star Alliance member airline (e.g., United, Lufthansa, Air Canada, or Singapore Airlines). For example, reaching Premier Gold or higher on United Airlines or Aeroplan 50K on Air Canada automatically grants you Star Alliance Gold status. Once you have this status, your digital or physical boarding pass will typically display the Star Alliance Gold logo. To use the Gold Track, simply look for the branded "Gold Track" or "Priority" signage at airport security. In 2026, many airports also allow you to "tap" your digital frequent flyer card at the Gold Track gates for entry. This perk is one of the most valued benefits of the alliance, as it allows you to skip the standard long security lines, regardless of your class of travel, provided you are flying on a Star Alliance member airline that day.
