Austin handled heavy passenger growth, but lounge provision is still airline-club only. If your access comes from Priority Pass or a co-branded lounge network rather than Delta, American or United, plan on the terminal or a day pass — not a Priority Pass scan.

Is there a Priority Pass lounge at Austin airport?

No. Priority Pass currently lists no lounges, restaurants or experiences at Austin-Bergstrom. Chase Sapphire Reserve, Capital One Venture X and similar Priority Pass memberships do not open a lounge at AUS.

Does Austin airport have a Capital One lounge?

No. There is no Capital One Lounge at AUS. Venture X Priority Pass access also does not help here because Priority Pass has no AUS locations.

Does Austin have a Centurion Lounge?

No. There is no Amex Centurion Lounge at Austin. Amex Platinum holders flying Delta can generally use the Delta Sky Club under Delta’s current guest and visit rules — that is not a Centurion Lounge visit.

Austin airport lounge day pass: price and how to buy

The Admirals Club sells a One-Day Pass to travelers on an eligible same-day American Airlines or oneworld flight, subject to capacity. Published pricing is commonly about $79 or AAdvantage miles; buy online or at the club when available. The Delta Sky Club does not sell day passes. United Club day-pass sales depend on the club being open — confirm on United’s lounge locator before you count on it.

Under about 90 minutes to spare, a day pass is often not worth the walk and queue. Two to four hours, or a long delay, is when power, quieter seats and Wi-Fi matter more.

Chase Sapphire lounge Austin and Amex Platinum lounges at AUS

Chase: There is no Chase Sapphire Lounge at Austin. The former Chase Sapphire Terrace is closed. Sapphire Reserve Priority Pass does not open anything at AUS today.

Amex Platinum: No Centurion Lounge. Usable airline-lounge path at AUS is mainly the Delta Sky Club when you are on an eligible same-day Delta-marketed flight and still have visits under Delta’s rules. Admirals Club and United Club still need those airlines’ memberships, premium cabins or co-brand cards — not Platinum alone.

The three lounges and the South Terminal catch

All three clubs are past security in the Barbara Jordan Terminal. The separate South Terminal is not connected airside or landside. If your ultra-low-cost flight leaves from South Terminal, no lounge is available at any price — confirm the terminal when you book.

At peak banks, clubs can hit capacity and turn away valid guests. Hours often end in the evening, so late departures may find clubs closed.

What's coming

Delta has announced Sky Club expansion work at AUS; American has plans for a rebuilt Admirals Club with an outdoor terrace on a later timeline. Neither replaces the need to plan around the clubs that are open today. Southwest has also discussed a future lounge — treat any “coming soon” date as provisional until the airline opens the doors.
