Pune (PNQ) airport lounges — which credit card
gets you in
Pune Airport (Lohegaon) runs 2 lounges we can put a source under. 94 of the 107 cards we track open at least
one of those doors
— 59 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".

Which card gets you in
Lounge access is not one thing — it is 5 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.
Priority Pass
2 of 2 doors · 55 cards
A membership your card carries. The kit arrives by post, the door reads the membership — not the card.
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.
° 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.
Every lounge at PNQ, door by door
Terminal, side of security, operator, hours, stay cap, guest fee, walk-in price — and the
cards that walk in. Each door carries the document we read it from.
International executive lounge inaugurated 5 Jun 2025; now also on Visa's mid-2026 domestic-programme list (PNQ5, evening blocks of 18:00–03:00 or 18:00–09:00 depending on day) — beyond PP and Visa, coverage is still thin.
One door here publishes 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 PNQ is
cards-and-invites only.

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