HA Pualani Elite Benefits
Is a physical elite membership card necessary to receive priority security, boarding, and access to the Premier Club lounge or will a boarding pass suffice? Also, are extra comfort seats really not available until the gate and not for companions? Will baggage be tagged priority?

As to priority tags I usually check in at the manned desks so the tags are applied (even if I've done online check in)
As far as extra comfort that is available at check in (24 hours in advance)

Agreed, they say it is required but I have never had to show it....it is all printed on the boarding passes...manual check in BP, webcheck BP, kiosk BP and mobile BP.
Really, I think the only time you will need your physical card is when you have a flight on an A330 and you want to claim your "Unlimited TV & More" IFE package which is a benefit for elites and Premier Club members. You need to swipe the mag stripe on the card to the card reader on the IFE screen.
