The Guide to Priority Pass Lounges at LAX
The Guide to Priority Pass Lounges at LAX-November 2024
Nov 24, 2024 11:45 PM

Los Angeles International Airport, or LAX, is the second busiest U.S. airport by passenger traffic, serving about 84.5 million passengers every year. With that many people passing through, you might be looking to escape the terminal’s hustle and bustle and find a bit of peace (not to mention a snack and beverage) at an airport lounge.

At LAX, members of the Priority Pass network — including credit card holders whose cards come with a Priority Pass Select membership — have access to some unique relaxation options where Priority Pass membership pays part of the bill.

Here’s a look at your options to help you figure out which is the best Priority Pass lounge at LAX for you the next time you're there.

Complimentary food and drink include one bottle of soda or water and one free snack.

How can I access these lounges?

Priority Pass sells memberships starting at $99 per year, but the best option is to get Priority Pass lounge access for free as a card perk. Premium cards that come with a complimentary Priority Pass membership include:

Chase Sapphire Reserve®.

Citi Prestige® Card.

Hilton Honors American Express Aspire Card*.

The Hilton Honors American Express Business Card (10 visits per cardmember year). Enrollment required. Terms apply.

Hilton Honors American Express Surpass® Card (10 visits* per cardmember year). Enrollment required. Terms apply.

Marriott Bonvoy Brilliant® American Express® Card.

The Business Platinum Card® from American Express.

The Platinum Card® from American Express.

U.S. Bank Altitude™ Reserve Visa Infinite® Card.

Capital One Venture X Rewards Credit Card.

*Existing cardholders who enrolled in Priority Pass on or before Jan. 31, 2023, will no longer have a membership as of Feb. 1, 2024. Cardholders who enroll between Feb. 1, 2023, and Jan. 31, 2024, will continue to have membership through Oct. 31, 2024. Terms apply.

Most of these cards offer Priority Pass Select membership, which includes unlimited visits to any of the more than 1,300 lounges within the network. Up to two guests can enter free of charge, but terms vary and you should pay attention to entry conditions. Additional guests are $27 to $35 per person and as of Oct. 1, 2023, the cost of lounge visits beyond the free allowances that come with Priority Pass Select membership have increased to $35 per person, per visit.

Restaurants are excluded for travelers with access provided by an American Express card — such as The Platinum Card® from American Express or the Hilton Honors American Express Aspire Card — or the Capital One Venture X Rewards Credit Card (as of Jan. 1, 2023). This means that certain cardholders with Priority Pass Select membership don’t receive any allowance toward their bill at participating restaurants. Enrollment in Priority Pass is also required. Terms apply.

The bottom line

Priority Pass members traveling through the busy Los Angeles International Airport have three lounges available to them, along with two restaurants where their membership will cover part of the check.

The lounge nearest your departure gate may have limited hours or limited access for Priority Pass members, so check the Priority Pass website before you head to the airport.

With any luck, you’ll be able to spend some time relaxing with a drink or snack before your flight.
