Lufthansa Lounges In USA Join Priority Pass

With airlines scrambling for revenue everywhere they can, we’ve seen a slew of new airline lounges added to Priority Pass, which is fantastic for those with high-end credit cards.

A few Lufthansa lounges in the United States have joined Priority Pass, which could come in handy during your next layover.

Priority Pass also has access to four Lufthansa lounges in the United States, but with restricted hours.

• The Lufthansa Business Lounge Detroit (DTW) is open to Priority Pass members from 6AM until 5PM Mondays and Thursdays, from 9AM until 5PM on Tuesdays, from 8AM until 5PM Wednesdays, and from 6AM until 6:30PM on Fridays
• The Lufthansa Business Lounge New York (JFK) is open to Priority Pass members from 11:45AM until 3:30PM daily, except on Wednesdays and Sundays
• The Lufthansa Business Lounge Newark (EWR) is open to Priority Pass members from 2:30PM until 5:30PM Mondays and Wednesdays, and 2:30PM until 9PM Tuesdays, Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays
• The Lufthansa Business Lounge Washington Dulles (IAD) is open to Priority Pass members from 2PM until 5:30PM daily

In the United States, the only Lufthansa Business Lounge that is not part of Priority Pass is in Boston. For background, Priority Pass has had the Detroit lounge for a long time, while the other additions are recent.

It’s fantastic to see that Priority Pass now has four Lufthansa lounges in the United States. This is a logical step on Lufthansa’s side, as it provides additional revenue while keeping lounges open at a time when demand is poor.

When international travel resumes, it is expect that Lufthansa will either terminate its agreement with Priority Pass or simply extend lounge hours, allowing Priority Pass members access when Star Alliance passengers are not.
