Fliers who own Venture X and Venture X Business cards will soon lose the privilege of extending Capital One airport lounge access to guests and additional cardholders.

Capital One confirmed the change would be applied to all of these account owners in February 2026.

Venture X and Venture X Business card owners will still be allowed to give other individuals access to their cards - but they will have to pay $125 annually for access.

Venture X cardholders will also be required to pay $35 per guest to Priority Pass lounges, which are exclusive lounges affiliated with Capital One.

'As airport lounges continue to grow in popularity across the industry, we've seen our customers increasingly encounter wait times to enter them,' a Capital One spokesperson told DailyMail.com.

'It is important to us that we maintain a great airport lounge experience for our Venture X and Venture X Business customers, while continuing to deliver best-in-class premium travel cards at an accessible price point.'

Qualified cardholders will still be able to bring two guests to lounges and one to Landings locations, as long as the account owners spend over $75,000 a year.

Capital One launched Venture X cards in 2021, which they described as a 'unique premium travel card with industry-leading rewards and benefits.'

Other lounges operate in popular airports in states like Colorado, Nevada, and Virginia.
