DragonPass is accepted at Lounge Osaka, the landside card-holder lounge in the central block. It's the membership route for travellers without JAL or ANA status, and works before you clear the security check.

DragonPass

Lounge Osaka sells pay-in entry at the door for guests without a qualifying card or status, so you can pay per visit. It's the only ITM lounge with a walk-in option — the JAL and ANA lounges are status- and fare-based.

Lounge Osaka also admits holders of eligible Japanese gold and premium credit cards as part of its card-holder lounge programme. Check that your specific card is on the list before relying on it, and bring the card and your boarding pass.

JAL vs ANA sides

• —Itami splits along airline lines — JAL lounges are in the North Terminal, ANA lounges in the South Terminal.
• —Match your lounge to your airline: there's no JAL access on the ANA side or vice versa.
• —Both airlines run a standard lounge and a higher-tier lounge (JAL Sakura/Diamond Premier, ANA Lounge/Suite Lounge).

No status? Use Lounge Osaka

• —Lounge Osaka in the central block is the only ITM lounge open without JAL or ANA status.
• —It takes DragonPass, eligible gold credit cards and pay-in entry at the door.
• —It's landside, before security, so you can use it even when flying a basic fare.

Airside vs landside

• —The JAL and ANA lounges are airside, after the security checkpoint — clear security first.
• —Lounge Osaka is landside, before security, so settle there only if you don't need to be through the checkpoint yet.
• —Once you're airside on one airline's side, you can't switch to the other airline's lounges.

Domestic airport, simple visits

• —Itami handles domestic flights only — international Osaka services run from Kansai (KIX), so expect a shorter, simpler lounge stop.
• —Most lounges close in the evening with the last domestic departures, so check hours if you're on a late flight.
• —Lounge Osaka opens from early morning to early evening; the airline lounges follow the day's first and last flights.
