Hey All,
I got a confirmation from Premium experience that the priority pass that comes with Magnus can be used at international terminals in India without any charges.

But doesn't domestic lounge access include International Airport lounges in India, like Mumbai international airport?

Lounges in International departures only.

Lounges in International departures only.

If you have a card which gives domestic Lounge access, can it be used to depart from Mumbai International Airport to a foreign country?

No. Example: Magnus. Usually, the banks lists which lounges can be accessed. Some do allow.

IndusInd exclusive debit card gives access to the lounge for departures from Mumbai International Airport, but it does not have any priority pass nor Lounge key card

Some are part of Visa lounges, Mastercard lounges, or Rupay lounges, while others are on bank-specific lounge lists, such as those from HDFC and AXIS via Dreamfolks. Some offer access to international lounges, while others don't. The Axis Magnus doesn't have any, but the Reserve does. In such cases, you can use the card to access the lounge. Usually, priority pass cannot be used in India except for the ones from Infinia. Last year Axis clarified that it can be used for international and domestic lounges in India. Now, they have restricted it to few domestic lounges(where the access via credit card using dreamfolks isn't available)

Thanks, like the Twitter handle clarified, it is better not to use any Priority pass at any International departure lounge within India.

Because they will certainly charge you $27 and they may not reverse the charge.

Thanks, like the Twitter handle clarified, it is safer not to use any Priority pass at any International departure lounge within India

Yup, it's safe. But we're going to use it regardless and fight with Axis to reverse the fee (in case they charge it) 🤣

 

[drsel]

Because unlike a credit card or debit card ,(which gives a printout / receipt), nobody knows if you will be charged or not when you use a Priority pass anywhere in the world.

even the counter staff do not know.
they say to check with your bank how many free lounge access you have left

I want to make use of Aviserv arrival lounge in Mumbai airport in last week of October. I heard that they don't accept Credit cards here. Can I use Magnus Priority pass to access this lounge. Will I be charged? If yes, is there a charge reversal later.

Thank you

Yes.. You can use it for yourself and for guests. Axis charges the fee but reverses the same within next 24 hours.
