Small note: In case I mistakingly said 'Scotiabank Passport Visa Infinite Privilege' it should be just 'Scotiabank Passport Visa Infinite' (NO 'privilege'!) but still, the best card for airport lounges I've seen so far. I'm going to use it again soon when I transit in Japan-and wow do they have yummy looking set menus served in their lounges!
I have the American Airlines Citibank Executive Admirals club lounge access and purchased a stand alone Dragon pass membership which for my travel in SE Asia.
Hi as usual, great info. Been a subscriber for sometime now. May I know how many guests can you bring along to the lounge per visit? Like for example, i get this card, will i get to bring my wife as a guest in the lounge?
I have the same question and will use the free airport lounge with CIBC Aventura Gold Visa. I and my wife both have this card under same account, hopefully as you said it will work for 2 for every visit.
Definitely, if you don't plan on using it again to that extent. But for some people it can make sense to keep it (if they really want to use those 6 passes, it can be worth it.)
Not related to this post. Can Presto cards be used all over Canada? Or just Toronto areas? And can you share the link where i can get the bus or subway routes?
The physical card can be used in the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area as well as OC Transpo in Ottawa but the digital PRESTO in Apple and Google Wallets can only be used in the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Areas.
So, how many people can use the lounge on one pass? For example for a family of 4 did you have to use 4 out of 6 passes, for a 4 hour stay? Or just one pass for a family of 4 was enough for one 4 hour stay?
It's one pass per person. We used 2 passes out of the 6, for the two of us (based on one membership). I'm not sure how many people can use one membership, perhaps someone who went with more than 2 can help out in the comments here!
Do you know if the renewal process for the 6 lounges entries in the scotiabank visa is by calendar year or every year from the date you got the card? Thanks for this video which has been super valuable! 🙏
I haven't gotten to either, so I don't know. But this is what it says in Scotiabank's passport card TnCs "Unless the Program membership is suspended or cancelled, the Program membership and any included complimentary lounge visits (if applicable) will automatically renew annually on the anniversary date (based on date when the Cardholder enrolled for the Program)." Which is good news!!
Thanks for pointing that out! The ones in my video are not available anymore, so here's another similar option: amzn.to/3M9pSqL . I added that to the descriptions. We showed our dragon pass (from the dragon pass/visa companion account), cheers!

Just enjoyed my first Lounge access entirely free with my CIBC card.
Awesome!
Hello! I have now the card. Thanks for the information!! Super helpful!! You are the best❤
Awesome! Enjoy the travel lounges!😎
@@LivinginCanadathank you ❤ i hope you have also FB page to follow
very clear and details ... thank you!
It's so refreshing to see something positive and dreamlike. Where were you so long? Thanks.
Just in time. Thank you so much!
Awesome!
Thanks for your helpful suggestion.
Istanbul Air Canada lounge is really nice.

We used one account for the two of us. I don't know what the upper limit is, but it definitely works for 2 people!
I have the same question and will use the free airport lounge with CIBC Aventura Gold Visa. I and my wife both have this card under same account, hopefully as you said it will work for 2 for every visit.
Great video, thanks!
Do you need to purchase the air fares with the same scotia ccard to avail the free lounge?
No! At least I couldn't find a reference to it
No need to buy tickets with the card.
You're impressively resourceful, Tan!😃👍
Let's meet at an airport for drinks!
YOUR treat, of course!😁
Airports are always very exciting to me... the feeling of launching into a different country and leaving the day-to-day behind😎🤩
Remember to cancel the card within a year, you don't wanna incur a loss of $139 the next year.
Definitely, if you don't plan on using it again to that extent. But for some people it can make sense to keep it (if they really want to use those 6 passes, it can be worth it.)
See $139 you have to pay for it I told you so

You can up to 6 people use the card at once.
Hi, am I required to open a scotia bank account (checking or savings), first to be able to apply for the credit card?
Do you know if the renewal process for the 6 lounges entries in the scotiabank visa is by calendar year or every year from the date you got the card? Thanks for this video which has been super valuable! 🙏

@@LivinginCanada Thanks for your response! Appreciate the info :)
I have the card. It is renewed yearly from the date of issue. Six passes per year.
You title is Click bait. You really didn’t mention anything free.
The airport lounge accesses are free.
Amazon link is broken!
BTW, What we need to show them while visiting lounge? Email confirmation or creditcard??

Things open up if you get Amex cards
