I've been searching the net for info on how to get a Priority Pass in Thailand. I've got a Platinum Visa card with Kasikorn, and will get a Platinum MasterCard next week hopefully. I know that in many other countries you automatically get a Priority Pass if you have a Platinum MasterCard. Is this also the case in Thailand?

"I know that in many other countries you automatically get a Priority Pass if you have a Platinum MasterCard. Is this also the case in Thailand?"

in which countries pray tell?

And I know it comes with MasterCard Platinum in Denmark where I originate from as well.

I'm not sure whether all banks here provide that benefit, however, if you are a Central Mastercard Platinum cardholder, they will also issue you with a Priority Pass card (I have one).

"Priority Pass" ? Maybe your KFC gets delivered quicker.

Do yourself a favour and buy a Thailand Elite card. There must be plenty going cheap right now.

I'm not buying anything... Just since I'm getting the MasterCard anyway, I wanted to hear if the priority pass came with it.

This may seem a stupid question but have you asked the bank? If anybody knows they will.

Fair question I have yeah, but my local branch is as useful as asking the local ice cream lady. I have yet to experience them knowing the answer any question I've made without calling the Kasikorn hotline and giving me the phone. The person I talked to on the phone did not know what Priority Pass was, so that made me think it might not come with the card.

i apologise. i thought you are talking about passing immigration with priority. never bothered with lounge access as i don't fly economy and am used since decades to use lounges.

I would get a Platinum MC just for that benefit - most of my flights are regional and sadly, the company only pays for economy. My Platinum Visa does get me into the Thai lounge, but only in Swampy.

Is it true that a platinum Visa card gets you into the Thai lounge at BKK ? Which card issuer ? Anyone know about Mastercard ?

I can add some thoughts - I too am a Priority Pass holder from a UK i24 Master Card.

Most of the time I do not need it but it will come in handy when I use United Airlines for a Bangkok Tokyo return trip in a few weeks (still get the points on my blue BMI Card).

I would suggest your best bet is to ask Priority Pass itself. It will cause the thought process to kick in. Give them the name of your bank/platinum card and ask.

Strategy is always a good thing IMO
