If you're that keen on using the lounge every single time, why not get an membership and drop Priority Pass?
I don’t care if it happens to include me. It can include you also if you want to qualify for 75K status.

MVP75K members are Alaska’s most valuable customers, so there are many instances where exceptions are made for them. This happens everyday when you fly Alaska. This includes many policies already in place at the airline. Why? It’s not fair that we are treated special. Could it be that maybe 75Ker’s provide the most revenue to AS which is why those members get extra benefits?
