Does anyone with Amex gold know/ have tried using the Emirates lounge at Dubai airport? I have long- a$$ layover and tempted to get the credit card just to be able to get the airport lounge access. 🙏🏼

Ps- was none the wiser upon checking Amex wwbsite

I think emirates is emirates membership exclusive only but Amex platinum gives access to priority lounges - maybe marhaba lounge or smth like this in Dubaï

Pretty sure the US version of the Amex Gold doesn’t have priority pass

I have the card. If you’re talking about the personal (not business or corporate) Amex Gold in the US, it does not have priority pass

US Amex Gold doesn't have priority pass. I'm renewing my Platinum and was told I could downgrade to gold but would lose priority pass lounge access and some other Perks

I thought you need platinum for lounge access?

Apparently Amex gold would work for 180 odd airport lounges too

How long is your layover? If it is greater than 10 hours look up Dubai Connect, free hotel and food.

Thts incredibly helpful thanks

Amex gold has lounge access?

Amex gold gives you lounge access through priority pass

India going?

I believe you can buy day passes

You can even buy first class lounge access but it's something like $250 if you're in economy and not a Skywards member. That being said, the Concourse A first lounge is (I think) the largest in the world and is supposedly amazing.

Basing it off of this btw
