Plaza Premium lounges were previously accessible for Priority Pass members, but the scheme ended in July 2021. 

This was bad news for those who relied on their Priority Pass membership to access these lounges, but American Express Platinum and Capital One cardholders (Venture X, Venture Rewards and Spark Miles for Business) were still allowed to use them. 

Now it looks like things are going back to the previous arrangement. As of 6 June, 39 Plaza Premium lounges have rejoined Priority Pass, with the remaining lounges set to follow by 20 June. 

While this is a welcome development, frequent flyers might be worried about capacity issues with airport lounges are already experiencing high traffic and placing on caps on how many people can enter. With Priority Pass members regaining access to Plaza Premium lounges, it might make the problem worse.
