Yes, it's called the Souliga Lounge. Free wine and soda, but NOT beer or mixed drinks, and free heavy appetizers, like chicken wings, mini quiche, etc. Free wifi, TV, comfortable seating. One day pass is $20. But free, with your credit card?? Priceless! <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Grin.gif" alt="" />

pony600 said: Where is it located? From the link: "Airside - after Security and Passport Control, on the right hand side near Gates 1 and 2. Signs indicate the entrance to the lounge." So after you clear security.

We got it a few months ago. Heck got the 300 back in one air ticket!! Also when I applied we received 100,000 points. Flying home Monday will report back on using lounge. Scrap that. Just realized both my husband and myself left our priority passes at home!!

which has a pricy annual fee, but huge benefits (including a $300 per year travel credit, making it effectively a $150 fee if you do SXM once per year) I would guess $450

moontide said: Irina, Are you saying that one can access the lounge at no charge with an AMEX card? Only access to the lounge is one of the perks of the card. I'd be very curious about the ability to simply show your credit card (even if access is a perk) to get in. Everything I've read says you need to have the membership card. If someone here attempts to get in by showing a credit card, please post results.

I'm not sure where you were reading that there needs to be a membership card also. Several people have reported being admitted with I believe it is the black AMEX card, the one that costs $500...

Are there two lounges? I thought the Soualiga lounge was the only one but the PJIA website uses two different names and two different entrance requirements. Soualiga (doesn't sound like a CC will get you free access): Use of the membership constitutes acceptance of the Soualiga Lounge Membership Terms and Conditions. The Soualiga Lounge membership card, or proof of purchase of one-day or one-time memberships (vouchers, to be issued by airlines, tour operators, hotels etc.), hereinafter both will be referred to as Soualiga Lounge membership card, are for the exclusive use of the person whose name is imprinted on the front of the card (in case of an individual or corporate membership card) and are not transferable or refundable. Membership allows admittance to Soualiga Lounge. The Soualiga Lounge membership card is required for admittance to the Soualiga Lounge. You must show your membership card to the host or hostess each time you enter. Executive (an appropriate CC WILL get you in) : Executive Lounge has a partnership agreement with most of the airlines servicing our airport and with some Private Lounges throughout the world. Eligible travelers will receive an invitation from their respective carrier entitling them entry to the lounge or they may present their lounge card for accessibility.
Travelers can also make use of our Executive Lounge by paying our daily fee or by becoming a member.

Jaybird said: Will an Admirals Club membership get you access to the Souagila Lounge? No, it will not. There is no relationship between the two.

4Driver4 said:I just signed up for the new Chase Sapphire Reserve card, which has a pricy annual fee, but huge benefits (including a $300 per year travel credit, making it effectively a $150 fee if you do SXM once per year). One of the benefits is access to Priority Pass lounges, which I didn't pay much attention to, until I noticed that there is one at Julianna. Has anyone been? https://www.prioritypass.com/en/Lounges/...xecutive-Lounge Live reporting!! Made it through the gates! I showed my picture of the PP Select card and that was sufficient. And my husband never even activated his, but was included on mine no problem and no extra charge.

Yes, last time I was there, it was $20. That would be disappointing, if there were noisy kids there, as that's one of the reasons to pay the money for it, to get away from the hubbub outside.

kim said: It was very nice. So even at 47 a couple, knocks my 450 +75 for extra card down to 178 and have only started using the card. Spending 300 on travel is easy when you go at least once a year. Plus the 100000 Bonus points. could be two tickets down if I play it right!! Thanks for the report! Glad you got in without issue.
