Free visits are only for Citi Plt Amex cardmembers and guests will be charged an entry fee, unless your guest also has a Citi Plat. Amex

Thanks. What if the guest is my wife who also has a Citi Amex Platinum with her name on it but my number. In other words, she's an authorized user of a second card with the same number.

I remember reading about it somewhere here on the forum. I think her card needs to be registered with Priority Pass, but I don't know how it will work if probably her card and yours have the same card number.

As an update, I waited a few days for charges to post against the account and then went back in to the forum link to try registering. This time the registration went right through without a problem.

I think that is correct. As an AU your wife can also sign up for a Priority Pass as was reported here. Then, you'd both have 3 free visits each year for yourselves.

No problem establishing a second Priority Pass "3 free visits per year" account for my wife who is an authorized user of my Citi Amex and has her own separate card with all numbers exactly the same as mine but with her name. Just followed the links suggested above. I tried also to sign her up for Identity Monitor but got the "maybe a new card - try back in a week" response. Is it even possible to sign her up for a separate Identity Monitor account for free or am I just hoping for too much?

I'm not sure. My guess is it depends on the specific lounge that you're trying to gain access to. If you go to the Priority Pass website and find the lounge you want in the pull-down menus, you will see a section named "Conditions". In some it says immediate family members can enter with the cardholder, or that children under 2 are free. Some of them don't specify, so I'd imagine that kids wouldn't be allowed free in those cases.

Under Citi Platinum program each additional guest will be charged to your Citi Plat Amex at $27 per guest.
