Good afternoon everyone, I hope your week is going well. Last week, we learned that the Chase Sapphire Reserve & JPMorgan Ritz Carlton Priority Pass memberships will lose restaurant access on July 1, 2024. Luckily, Frequent Miler’s recent podcast episode listed a few credit cards that will still offer Priority Pass restaurant access after July 1. Also luckily, I already have 2 of those credit cards: US Bank Altitude Reserve (8 visits) and the US Bank Business Altitude Connect (4 visits). In this post, I will show you how to enroll in Priority Pass for these 2 credit cards.
For the US Bank Altitude Reserve, you need to go to this specific enrollment link: www.prioritypass.com/usbankaltitudereserve. The terms say:

If you have any other Priority Pass questions, you can call them directly at 1-855-241-9239. Have a great day everyone!
What is the guest policy? For example if I go with a guest, does that count as 2 of the 8 total visits?
Yes, that is my understanding. If you go by yourself, that counts as 1 visit. If you go with another person, that counts as 2 visits.
Hello Grant, I was trying to enroll my new business altitude connect card to the link you provided. However, the site keeps saying the first 6 digits card nimbers are not correct. Did you encounter the same issue? What should I do?
Hi Ozzi, that link is for the MasterCard Business Altitude Connect. Do you have the MasterCard or Visa version?
Hey, Grant! Thanks so much for this. Wish I’d seen it earlier. After Chase announced the restaurant discontinuation, there were some big names in the travel world who authoritatively said they’d confirmed that restaurants weren’t included for AR users, so I never bothered to check. I’d also never registered my AR for PP after getting it in 2017, as I had unlimited PP visits on multiple other cards. Well, lo and behold! The experts were wrong. After quickly registering, I now see the places I could’ve enjoyed earlier this week during a couple of unexpectedly long layovers due to weather (also when the SEA Centurion had an extremely long line at all times, so I didn’t bother trying). Eight is a decent number of restaurants to visit in a year. Thanks again.
You’re welcome Carl! I also noticed that it makes a difference which Priority Pass account you are signed into. If you have restaurant access, you will see restaurants in the search results. If you don’t have access, you won’t see restaurants in the search results.
Also, I have 4 visits tied to my US Bank Business Altitude Connect CC, but I just closed that CC a few weeks ago, but it looks like I still have my 4 restaurant visits available.
