With traveler expectations continuing to evolve, Priority Pass, renowned for its global network of airport lounges, is expanding to meet new demands. Alongside traditional offerings, such as spas, dining, and sleep pods, the company is now catering to a growing gaming community by offering gaming lounges across select US airports.

Priority Pass members can now access these gaming spaces at six US airports. In partnership with Gameway, these lounges are equipped with the latest consoles, including Xbox Series X, PlayStation, and high-performance PCs. Each gaming station comes with premium accessories, such as Razer Iskur Gaming Chairs and Kraken Headsets, to create an immersive gaming experience. Travelers can unwind with a complimentary drink and snack while enjoying their favorite games in between flights.

Where Are The Gaming Lounges?

At Charlotte Douglas International Airport (CLT), the gaming lounge is located in Concourse E, near Gate 36, and features 15 individual gaming consoles and six high-performance PC stations. Travelers can enjoy their gaming experience daily from 07:00 to 20:00.

Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport (DFW) was the first to open a Gameway lounge in 2018. Now, there are two lounges available: one in Terminal B near Gate 42 and another in Terminal E near Gate E16, both offering the latest gaming setups.

Houston Hobby Airport (HOU) also features a gaming lounge located near Gate 1 after the TSA checkpoint. Open daily from 06:00 to 21:00, this lounge is part of Hobby's mission to offer passengers a high-quality entertainment experience.

In Los Angeles International Airport (LAX), two lounges are available. The first is located in the newly renovated Delta Sky Way at Terminal 3, offering an immersive gaming atmosphere alongside a retro-themed bar. The second lounge is in Terminal 6, providing easy access from Terminals 7 and 8 via a connecting walkway.

Expanding Nationwide

Gameway is not stopping there. New locations are being planned at New York JFK, Chicago Midway (MDW), and Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport (MSP), where an innovative concept called "The Portal" will include a mix of gaming, a lounge, and business pods.

Additionally, passengers flying internationally can access the Game Space gaming lounge near Gate B25 at Dubai International Airport (DXB), part of Priority Pass' global expansion efforts.

As gaming becomes an increasingly popular form of entertainment, these lounges offer travelers a unique way to pass time while waiting for their flights, making airport delays far more enjoyable.
