Airport Lounge Benefits
How Do I Activate Priority Pass On the Amex Platinum Card?
Registration is required to access the Priority Pass lounges, and must be done through customer service by calling 1-800-263-1616.
Hotel Benefits
Registration is required to obtain Gold status with Marriott Bonvoy and Hilton Honors.
Car Rental Advantages
Registration is required for Avis and Hertz benefits and status.
Nexus Credit
Registration is not required to benefit from the Nexus credit.
Enrolling in Benefits
Once you click on « Learn More » for any benefit, you’ll be taken to this new page.
All you have to do is enrol in each program.
How Long Does It Take To Activate These Benefits?
Some benefits, such as Gold status at Hilton Honors, take 24 to 48 hours. For Marriott Bonvoy it may take a little longer. Due to a problem with my last name not being recognized at Marriott Bonvoy, I had to contact both customer service departments to manually activate the status.
Finally, it takes around 10 days to receive the Priority Pass card. If you need it before that, you can contact Priority Pass customer service to get your membership number and activate your account online. The Priority Pass mobile app then provides access to most of the lounges.
