Changes to the Mastercard Complimentary Airport Lounge Program

Mastercard has introduced new requirements to the Airport Lounge Program for eligible cards that will apply on 1 August 2025 onwards. These requirements are related to: 

• Cross-border spend 
• Yearly lounge capped entitlements

Important Note:

Cardholders of primary and secondary cards should enroll into the program through the Mastercard Travel Pass app (powered by DragonPass)  where cardholders will need to register and validate their Mastercard card number.

• Platinum Mastercard (including AJIB RJ Platinum Debit Card & Platinum Credit Card)
• World Mastercard Credit Card
• World Elite Mastercard Credit Card

1. Cross-Border Spend Requirement:

Eligible AJIB cardholders are required to spend a minimum of $1 (local currency equivalent) on an international transaction to enable complimentary lounge access for 3 months using the Mastercard Travel Pass application within DragonPass.

If an eligible cardholder did not spend a minimum of $1 within 3 months, lounge access benefit will be limited to:

• One complimentary access for Platinum and World Mastercard.
• Two complimentary access for World Elite Mastercard.

If after using your complimentary access, you still do not make an international transaction, you will not be able to access the airport lounge unless you make a payment of $32 on your Mastercard card.

Cardholders may regain access to the airport lounge when paused by making an international transaction of a minimum of $1 (local currency equivalent) and clicking the ‘Spend Rewards’ banner in Mastercard Travel Pass app and validating the card again. Access will be re-instated after up to 72 hours from the time of performing the international transaction and up to 3 months.

Important Notes:

• International transactions include purchases outside Jordan and/ or online.
• Unlimited access to airport lounges will be extended to an additional 3 months with each international purchase transaction of minimum $1 (local currency equivalent).
• Spending limit requirement applies to primary & supplementary cardholders (each card separately).

2. Yearly Lounge Capped Entitlements:

Depending on the issued cards, yearly lounge entitlements will be applied:

• Platinum: eight airport lounge visits or airport dining offers per calendar year.
• World: twenty airport lounge visits or airport dining offers per calendar year. 
• World Elite: No caps, in addition the cardholder can bring one guest subject to traveling on the same flight only. 

Important Notes:

• In case the above-mentioned complimentary visits are consumed, Mastercard cardholders will be requested to pay the fee to access the airport lounge.
• Your complimentary access before you make an international transaction will be given to you when you first re-enroll/enroll onto the Mastercard Travel Pass and at the beginning of each calendar year and will expire at the end of the same calendar year, until you make an international transaction.
• You may log into your Mastercard Travel Pass app and see the number of accesses you have available. If your accesses have been paused because you have not spent the minimum requirement, you will see this on the app and be reminded to spend to reinstate your access.
• A calendar year is defined as the period starting from January 1^st to December 31^st in any given year. However, for 2025, the calendar year will be from August 1^st to December 31^st, noting that all lounge accesses should be used within the calendar year. Lounge access may not be carried to the following year if unused by December31^st.
