*A Gold benefits:
• Priority Reservations Waitlisting (Not permitted for *A Award tickets) : When there aren't any seats left on your preferred flight, gives you priority should a seat become available.
• Priority Airport Standby (Not permitted for *A Award tickets & Government restrictions apply on Varig in Brazil): Gives you the flexibility to change plans at the last minute when you don't have a reservation.
• Priority Airport Check-in: Avoid long lines regardless of paid fare or class of service.
• Priority Baggage Handling: Like you, your bags get priority treatment and are among the first to be unloaded.
• Extra Baggage Allowance: An additional 20kg (44 pounds) or one additional piece of luggage (applies on flights between North and South America) which means you can check in three bags instead of two.
• Priority Boarding (where available): Enjoy the freedom of boarding at your convenience along with First and Business Class passengers.
• Airport Lounge Access: Available worldwide for you and a friend (guests must enter with eligible *A Gold customer and must depart on a *A airline, though not necessarily on the same flight) when you travel with any *A airline regardless of your class of travel.
