Lounge club card was perfectly accepted at Dans a couple weeks ago, you must've had another issue

Anyone know if the LC pass can be used for someone other than the person in whose name it's written in?
FYI, it worked.

how many people can get in with a United Club Card?

Also does the club card name need to match the ticket? (have a friend flying Alitalia and I am flying United. flights leaving about the same time)

I was told that you must be on a United flight. But I am sure YMMV.

This has been around for a while but I just heard about it:


AMEX Israel has a biz gold card that you can get if you are a "people  & computers" magazine suscriber.
While reguler biz gold only gets you a discount at dan lounge, the P&C card gets you in for FREE! plus it has NO monthly fee and NO spend req.

A report on flyertalk says that in addition to reguler dan lounge, this card can also get you into dan+ lounge.

Basicly its a free dan lounge card with no need to do anything.


I signed up online with the link I found on flyertalk (I am not a P&C suscriber) and today I got a call from AMEX Israel to confirm my details and go over some finances and was approved.

Ill update about the card after I get it.

You may not be able to sign up without TZ.
