Alaska Lounges in ANC, LAX, PDX, and JFK accept Priority Pass (PP) on space-available (limited) basis.

I never paid for my PP membership since I always got it for free by churning the AMEX Plat Ameriprise deal, but that has finally gone away (it was a good run I must admit....lol) and the nail in the coffin is the PP restaurant benefit going away next month which, for those of us like me based in PDX means good-bye Capers. With that said, I went ahead and got an Alaska Lounge membership since it included nearly all of the AA AC....it will be nice to not have to worry about whether or not "the sign" is out and I'll also appreciate not walking forever down to the Club at SEA.

Flying in AS LAX-OGG in First in a couple of weeks. I will have the following:
A Citi Executive AAdvantage World Elite card
An AMEX Platinum Card/Priority Pass
An AS First Class BP
If the lounge is at what the lounge dragons consider capacity, is there a chance I’ll be denied?

If it were me, I'd use the much nicer Admirals Club in T5 and then take the tunnel to T6 for my AS flight.

Today, lounge very busy. Summer travel in full swing. PP sign out and they think it will stay out all day. Lounge still under remodel/construction. Food offerings on side tables. Have to ask at bar for every drink. No self serve except drip coffee.

Winner of the FlyerTalk Most Entitled award goes to nas6034. But really that's not a compromise that's just wanting everything to go your way every time. Solution to your access problem is plenty; Lounge Membership, 1st Class non upgrade, Citi Prestige with Admirals Club membership or an Admirals Club memberships in general, partner 1st class, day passes and 75k day pass. Priority Pass is granted access behind all those. Also Alaska is just in it for the extra $, was there 6/11/19 from 6 to 8 and the sign was out until 7:30pm, closes at 8:00pm. Had alot of space but didn't let PP in.

For ANC, have anyone tried using PP after 9pm on a weekday?
On the Priority Pass website, it says the access hours are:
05:00 - 21:00 Monday - Friday.
05:00 - 01:00 Saturday & Sunday.
Closed: Dec 25.
But on the official website, the hours are:
Daily:
5:00 am - 1:00 am
I have a flight that leaves at 12:30am.
