Chennai (MAA) airport lounges — which credit card gets you in

Chennai International Airport runs 4 lounges we can put a source under. 254 of the 1119 cards we track open at least one of those doors — 171 of them only if you clear a spend or tier gate. Below: every door with its terminal, hours, stay cap, guest fee and the exact cards that walk in. No "check with your bank".

Grade B — 3.6/5 — does the job, no more

Chennai's workhorse card lounge; physical Lounge A near Gate 1 is PP code MAA10 (not MAA6 — that's Lounge B by Gate 5). Visa access via DragonPass/Visa Airport Companion, Mastercard via Lounge Key; RuPay credit program lists MAA6/MAA10. Amex is NOT one of them: both Amex India lounge lists name a single T1 domestic Travel Club, and Amex's own page places it 'opposite Gate 5 to the 3rd Floor' — that is Lounge B, so the Amex tag came off this room in Aug 2026.

Which card gets you in

Lounge access is not one thing — it is 8 different machines at this airport, and your card is on some of them and not others. Each block below is one machine: the doors it opens here, and every tracked card that carries it. A card in more than one block gets in more than one way.

4 of 4 doors · 52 cards

Priority Pass at an INDIAN door. The kit arrives by post and the desk reads the membership — but on most Indian cards a within-India PP visit is billed at US$27–35, so only the cards listed here enter free.

Direct issuer tie-up

4 of 4 doors · 137 cards named

The lounge admits the card itself, on the issuer’s own list. No network in between — shortest list, most reliable swipe. No card "carries" this the way it carries Priority Pass — the issuer publishes a list and the door reads the card, so we only claim it where an issuer names a card we track.

Issuer-list rooms here: Travel Club Lounge A · Travel Club Lounge B · Travel Club Lounge ×2

° The access is spend- or tier-gated: hover the card, or open its page for the exact trigger. A gate you miss is a door that does not open, whatever the brochure said.

If no card of yours opens a door

4 doors here publish a walk-in price. Pay it and you are in, card or no card — the prices are the operators' own published rates, and desks quote higher at peak. Everything else at MAA is cards-and-invites only.

  • Travel Club Lounge A T1 — Domestic (3rd floor, turn right after security towards Gate 1) LoungePair pass ₹3,376
  • Travel Club Lounge B T1 — Domestic (3rd floor via lift opposite Gate 5) LoungePair pass ₹3,376
  • Travel Club Lounge T4 — Domestic (airside SHA, opposite Gate 17) LoungePair pass ₹3,376
  • Travel Club Lounge T2 — International (3rd floor, post-immigration) LoungePair pass ₹5,401

Worth doing the arithmetic before you swipe: a ₹3,000 walk-in is a bad trade against a card whose whole annual fee buys a season of visits — that comparison is exactly what the lounge-card ranking computes.

This is one airport out of 123 with a page of its own — the full map, every airport and every railway lounge we hold, is on the lounge map.
