Adani Airport Holdings has officially ended its partnership with DragonPass, a Chinese digital airport platform that provided airport lounge access. This decision was announced on May 15 and is effective immediately. The move follows widespread criticism over the association, especially after the terror attack at Pahalgam and the launch of Operations Sindoor.
Impact on DragonPass Users
As a result, DragonPass members will no longer be able to access lounges at Adani-operated airports. These include major hubs such as Mumbai, Ahmedabad, Lucknow, Mangaluru, Jaipur, Guwahati, and Thiruvananthapuram.
No Disruption for Other Customers
Adani clarified that the change affects only DragonPass users. Lounge access and services for other travelers—such as those using banks, credit cards, or different lounge networks—will continue as usual.Reversal of Recent Announcement
This decision comes just a week after Adani Digital Labs had announced the partnership with DragonPass to enhance lounge and travel experiences across its airports. The company has now rolled back the collaboration amid concerns linked to national security and public backlash.
