Question - So when I use the Priority Pass in a lounge with my husband - for example the Dan Lounge, etc. And we only have one card in his name, I will be charged $27 to be his guest? Any info on this is appreciated.

Not sure what the answer is but the Dan Lounge isn't worth $27 a visit IMHO. Other lounges are perhaps, but this one not.

It's not about the quantity of your posts.  It's about the quality.

Okay but what about the other lounges. How do I know if they will charge me?

For the Dan Lounge use the Chase ink bold/plus to get complimentary Lounge Club membership which will entitle you to 2 free visits.

PP allows the cardholder to enter for free. Guests are $27 per person.

The Plat card itself does not give you access to AS Board Rooms, not sure about PP (GIYF).

Though, if you are around a US lounge, you can gain entry there without a boarding pass.

Air Canada Lounge
thanks
I take that to mean (CMIIW) the AC lounge (accessible via PP) is in the same terminal. And there are no 'straight' plat options for US pax
