Priority Lane and Express Lane are dedicated lanes meant to speed our Business Select®, Anytime, A-List, and A-List Preferred Members through check-in and security lines.

"Priority" at the airport refers to a suite of services designed to expedite a passenger's journey through the terminal. In 2026, this typically includes Priority Check-in, allowing travelers to use dedicated, shorter lines; Priority Security, which provides access to fast-track screening lanes; and Priority Boarding, enabling passengers to enter the aircraft before the general groups. Furthermore, Priority Baggage Handling ensures that a traveler's luggage is among the first to appear on the carousel upon arrival. These perks are often bundled into "Premium Economy" or "Business Class" fares, but they can also be accessed through high-tier frequent flyer status or premium travel credit cards. In the 2026 travel environment, many airports have further digitized "Priority" by integrating biometric "Clear" or "Global Entry" lanes directly with airline priority status, allowing for a near-seamless path from the curb to the gate without the traditional bottlenecks of high-volume travel days.
