How to get into lounges at BUF.
Access at Buffalo is straightforward because there's a single lounge. The Club BUF takes Priority Pass and also sells a walk-in pass to any passenger for a fee, regardless of cabin or airline — so you can pay per visit even without a membership or status. There are no airline or alliance lounges at the airport, and the lounge is airside, so clear security before heading to it.
Priority Pass
The Club BUF participates in Priority Pass, the only lounge in the airport that does. Present a valid Priority Pass membership with your boarding pass at the door. As it's a single space serving the whole terminal, check capacity at busy departure times.
Priority PassWalk-in day pass
The Club BUF sells entry to any passenger for a fee, regardless of class of service or airline. This pay-per-visit route means you don't need status or a membership — just buy a pass at the door, subject to capacity. Booking ahead online, where available, can be cheaper than paying on arrival.
Lounge network cards
Beyond Priority Pass, the lounge is part of the wider contract-lounge network that some travel credit cards and lounge programs draw on. Check your specific card or membership benefits to see whether The Club BUF is included before you rely on it.
Priority PassPaid EntryAirline lounges
There is no dedicated airline or alliance lounge at Buffalo Niagara, so a premium-cabin ticket alone won't get you a branded space here. If you're flying business or first out of BUF, The Club BUF is the lounge to use via Priority Pass or a paid pass.
