Who is covered?

Family cover includes you and your partner, plus any dependent children under age 18 at the start of the journey, (under 23 if they’re in full-time education). Children must be living at the home address (or with the other parent), and be neither married nor in a Civil Partnership

Your partner is the person you, the account holder, live with at the same home address in a relationship, whether married or cohabiting

Existing medical conditions

To find out if you can extend your travel insurance to include cover for any new or existing medical conditions please visit our travel insurance website. You may have to pay extra for this or you may find that your condition cannot be covered.

If our insurers U K Insurance Limited (UKI) are unable to offer you an upgrade to extend the level of cover you need, or your upgrade insurance premium is higher than you expected because you have medical conditions, help could still be available.

UKI have been working with the Financial Conduct Authority and Money Helper to create a directory that you can search when UKI are unable to help.

Getting access

Remember to take your DragonPass Premier+ membership card with you when you travel.

Guests travelling with you, who don’t have a Premier Reward Black account, can use the lounge for a payment of £20 per person.

You are also eligible to receive discounts at over 1,000 airport cafés and restaurants, a handy alternative where no lounge access is available.
