It's all a matter of perspective. I've heard this reiterated here several times, so I thought I would look for myself to see how many PPS lounges are in US airports. Here's the list that I could find:
That's 41 by my count, though I suppose some of these shouldn't really count based on how badly people disparage them (HNL comes to mind). Even then, the list is longer than I thought. I think it's because several US airports have multiples and the PPS map only lists the airports, not the specific lounges at each. Food for thought...

New to priority pass from CSR... Do you only get access to the lounges listed at https://www.prioritypass.com/en/airport-lounges ?
Pretty sure that is the entire list of Priority Pass lounges, so you get access to all of them.

There is 1 DP on the main CSR thread (post) about the PP lounge access charge (without the PP card) being refunded from the travel credit. Any more DPs about how they were actually refunded?
I haven't used PP before but can I access an airline specific lounge on the list with my PP card even if I'm flying with a different airline? If the lounge is landside, is my PP card enough or do I need a boarding ticket?

I was told specifically through the phone that it would be credited and not taken from the $300 travel credit.

To clarify, any same-day boarding pass is required BUT it does not have to be an Alaska or code-sharing airline. This is different than some of the other credit card lounge access programs like Amex Plat, where you must have a Delta boarding pass to enter the Delta lounges.
But it's pre-security, probably the outlier
Check the individual lounge policy on priority pass website. Some have more restrictive language (eg must be Intl flight, or must depart from terminal X, obviously enforced via boarding pass, only 4 guests, no children under 10, dress code and can't wear sports Jersey or shorts)

I applied around 8/28 and still don't have mine. Called Chase earlier today and the gentleman acknowledged some delays but was quick to point out it is a Priority Pass issue and not theirs
As consolation he suggested that I can pay for 2 visits of up to 2 people and call for a credit after the fact.
Traveling to Singapore in a week and have some nested trips within Asia in economy - hoping the cards come in time for that.
