Priority Pass provides access to over 1,400 lounges, restaurants, and other venues globally. Many people get their memberships comped from holding a premium credit card.

Priority Pass members can use the landside lounge and fast track security. This is a nice addition to Priority Pass’ offering.

VIP ONE Card

Anthony’s Take: It has been a long time since I flew longhaul out of JFK. If I was traveling from Terminal 1, this seems like a great win and a way to save tons of time.
