All the recent changes to airport lounge access on Axis Bank Credit Cards have left many users confused about how they can still access lounges with their cards. This uncertainty comes in the wake of Axis Bank ending its partnership with DreamFolks, which previously powered most lounge access benefits.
Adding to the complexity, Adani Digital Labs has now launched LoungeOne, a new airport lounge access platform that supports Axis Bank Credit Cards for domestic lounges. However, it’s important to note that these changes apply only to domestic airport lounge access, leaving international travelers uncertain, especially those using the popular Axis Bank Atlas Credit Card.
The good news: We have discovered that Axis Bank has now enabled international airport lounge access via Priority Pass for Atlas Credit Cardholders. This replaces the earlier DreamFolks program and ensures that global travelers can continue to enjoy premium lounge access without interruption.
We also believe that international airport lounges can be accessed directly using the physical Axis Atlas Credit Card, without the need for any tedious QR code process or app-based check-ins. This is a welcome relief for frequent travelers.
Bottom Line
The shift in airport lounge services from DreamFolks, for Axis Bank and ICICI Bank, is not going to be easy. Earlier, users could simply log in to one website to generate a QR code, or they clearly knew they could swipe their card without facing embarrassment or rejection at international/domestic lounges. But now, many are left wondering whether their card offers international or domestic airport lounge access at all.
Fortunately, those with the Axis Atlas Credit Card can now easily access international airport lounges via Priority Pass.

Can you share the link where Axis Bank says that guest access has been revoked?

Revoked – as confirmed by Axis Bank & written clearly in PP website that guest access will be charged $35 to the bank card.
Devbrat

How to get the priority pass card as it was not supplied with the welcome kit. Do we have to call axis customer care to request one? The app still works or not?

See you can add a digital one (Priority Pass). Even swiping the card directly should work.
