In
our Guide
to using Airport Lounges we looked at how you can make the most of
your first or business class ticket or your elite membership of the
airlines frequent flyer programme. But what for those that do not fly
frequently and rarely in business of first? Everyone wants their journey
to be as enjoyable as possible and just because you are not flying in
first or business or do not have enough miles to be a Gold or higher
member of your airline's FFP, does not mean that you too cannot enjoy
the use of a comfortable airport lounge. The answer - Priority Pass.
Priority
Pass offers travellers a guarantee of airport lounge access. It does not
matter which airline you are flying with nor what class you are in, as
long as the airport you are flying from has an appropriate lounge, and
there over 450 of such airport lounges worldwide, you can have access.
How
can you benefit from this? All you have to do is join. Priority Pass
conveniently offers three levels of membership, Standard, Standard Plus
and Prestige, which allow travellers to decide which is most appropriate
depending on how often they travel. Travellers are even allowed to
invite guests to use the lounge with them, although there is a small
charge at least you are guaranteed the opportunity of enjoying some
light refreshments, doing some work and just enjoying the calm
atmosphere the lounges offer.
If
you do not travel very frequently, then an excellent alternative to
Priority Pass is a new system called Lounge
Pass, which allows you to pay per use without the need for becoming
a member. Read more about Lounge
Pass.
