WordsPriority Pass
PP
Short for Priority Pass, a membership programme for airport lounges. Its members can use more than 1,900 lounges and other airport experiences worldwide, whatever airline or class they fly, subject to space and each lounge’s conditions; many cards include a membership, and some let you in on the card itself where the lounge accepts it.
What’s included depends on the card. HDFC Bank’s MITC, for example, gives some cards unlimited visits, gives others the membership on request after four transactions, charges $27 plus taxes for each visit past the free ones, and can withdraw the membership if the card is closed or unused for more than 90 days.
