Aspire Lounge Birmingham Airport Costs

Book Direct	Book 3rd Party	Priority Pass
£46.99 for 3 hours	£41.28 with my Holidayextras Discount for 3 hours	£20.60 with Priority Pass Standard Plus (10 included visits)

If you’re deciding how to enter, here’s the simple takeaway: Priority Pass is usually the best value if you’ll use lounges more than once or twice per year, while third-party passes can work well for one-off trips.

The Aspire Lounge is a paid entry lounge. This means you can access it whatever airline you are flying with and whatever type of class you are flying.

You can either;

• Buy access directly with Aspire Lounges – £46.99 per adult for a 3 hour stay

• Access via an airport lounges membership scheme such as Priority Pass. The cost to enter depends on your membership level.

Is Priority Pass Worth It at Birmingham Airport?

For most travellers, the answer to that is yes.

Here’s why:

• Walk-in price: +£40
• Priority Pass visit with Standard Plus Membership (and my discount) £20.60
• Food + drinks + comfort: Included

If you use this lounge just twice per year, Priority Pass often pays for itself.

For regular flyers, it’s one of the easiest ways to save money.

You can also prebook all the lounges at Birmingham Airport through Priority Pass, which guarantees entry at peak travel times.
