Connecting Between Terminals for Lounge Access

DFW has a convenient Skylink train that serves all terminals. Trains operate within the secure area, so if you need to travel between terminals to visit a lounge, you can do so without clearing security. This excludes any passengers arriving at DFW on international flights or those who need to collect luggage in between connections, where exiting the secure area is necessary (Source: DFW International Airport).

Best Credit Cards To Access Priority Pass Lounges

With over 1,900 participating airport lounges and experiences worldwide (including several at DFW), a Priority Pass membership is one of the most valuable perks for frequent and semifrequent travelers (Source: Priority Pass). Several credit cards come with a Priority Pass membership as a perk for holding the card.

One card is the Chase Sapphire Reserve card. Another card is the Amex Platinum card, which grants you access to Priority Pass lounges upon enrollment, as well as Amex Centurion Lounges, Plaza Premium Lounges, 10 visits to Delta Sky Clubs (when flying Delta) with the ability to unlock unlimited visits through spending, and Escape Lounges.

Enrollment may be required before you can access Priority Pass lounges.

The Skylink train makes it easy to visit lounges in other terminals without leaving security. If you don’t have airline status or an eligible card, paid entry is available at The Club, Plaza Premium, Capital One Lounge, Gameway, and Minute Suites.
