Will be in O’Hare soon for ~4 hour layover. I’m flying United and noticed my only Priority Pass options are Swissport and Air France - KLM. First time using my membership, and getting mixed info online on if I’ll be allowed entry. I’m flying domestically and from a different terminal but wanted to take the opportunity to check out a lounge. Anyone have any experience here?

Fashion outlets is very close if you want to get out

I’m familiar with the area, I really just want to leverage my Amex benefits and check out an airport lounge. I didn’t discover the world of points / miles / travel cards until recently so still in that honeymoon phase of trying everything.

I think the info in the Priority Pass app will be accurate. Hours likely restricted for your access.

Yep should be fine. Skip to diff terminals for the lounge all the time. You’ll soon be a glutton for finger sandwiches and granola bars (well actually some of the internatl airlines have hot grub)

Air France is usually pretty solid. Not terribly surprising, but the finger sandwiches are made with good bread and the wines are solid. And Champagne too…

Lounges aren’t the oasis they used to be due to covid restrictions but are definitely way better than sitting at a gate. Depending on which term you’re coming from you might have to go through security to go or come back… can’t exactly remember for ord.

Separate but American was giving me issues because I was flyingJetBlue and if I wasn’t with my colleague who was taking American they wouldn’t have let me in (I have an AAdvantage card)

The US airline clubs work differently from Priority Pass in that you have to fly them to use them.

Also, they all suck.
