With DreamFolks no longer powering lounge access for Axis Bank cards, many users have been wondering what the new system looks like, especially for the popular Atlas Credit Card. Here’s a clear breakdown of the changes and how to make the most of your lounge privileges now.



🛫 International Lounge Access: Now via Priority Pass


Axis Bank has now tied up with Priority Pass to offer access to international lounges. However, as of now, only digital Priority Pass cards are supported, so you’ll need to activate and register your Priority Pass account online.


🔗 Activate here: https://my.prioritypass.com/en-GB/activate-your-account


Simply enter your credit card number and follow the on-screen instructions. Keep forex transactions on to authenticate your card. Once activated, your digital Priority Pass card will be visible within the Priority Pass app. This will be your gateway to lounges while traveling abroad.


✅ Bonus Tip: There are discussions about Priority Pass functionality being integrated directly into the card itself. If that’s evident, you may not need the app to access international lounges, but for now, it’s best to stick with the Priority Pass app.



🏢 Domestic Lounge Access: Two Options Now


For domestic travel, access is now managed through:

  1. Lounge One by Adani Group: Access is granted via QR code, which you can generate in the Axis Bank app.
  2. Card Swipe Option: You can still swipe your Atlas card directly at lounge counters where supported.


This gives you the flexibility to use either method depending on what works best at your airport.



Final Thoughts:


While the transition away from DreamFolks may feel like a shift, the new system is equally functional, but just a bit different in setup. Digital access is the key for now, and activation is simple and quick. If Axis eventually rolls out support for lounge entry directly via card (without the Priority Pass app), that’ll be a welcome move. Until then, stay with Priority Pass app.
 
How is this beneficial for the bank? Earlier all these three options would be catered by dreamfolks right? Now with dreamfolks gone, I can understand they can save some money with direct swipes, but would still have to pay money to Adani One and Priority Pass right?

It’s not about if bank is making profit or not, they need to go by how the airport authority sets the rule.
 
Il ask the question they everyone will want to know..
Can we share the access using Adani One? Does the card holder need to be present?
If it's digital, can a family member have the app installed and show the QR and enter?

If anyone has tried any of these, pls comment.
 
That's a bummer, I used Ahlan First Class lounge multiple times in Dubai from dreamfolks! Now it's unavailable in Priority Pass, I think they’ll have to figure a way forward, too early to comment on anything, my atlas only shows 2 visits. Let’s give the bank some time to figure this out!

It’s still impressive how fast they were able to tie up with Priority Pass

When you make it a spend requirement on one of your expensive card, and not be able to provide a service you have advertised, you are asking for trouble.
They had to come up with something asap!!
