E + EP + guests at LAX lounge

Hi

would appreciate some guidance on this.

4 of us (one Elite, one Elite Partner, 2 no-status) are travelling on one booking LAX-AKL all in economy.

At LAX lounge will both the E and EP be able to take in one guest each?

Or as one booking, will it just be one guest total allowed.

Thanks

Read in conjunction with https://www.airnewzealand.co.nz/elite-partner-benefits I believe the answer is yes, you can bring in one guest each.

thanks for the link - it is still not clear to what the EP access is - can they take a guest

and the issue for me is whether the E and EP would each be able to guest one, or just one guesting for the whole booking?

Hi Jeff, this is how I read it.
from https://www.airnewzealand.co.nz/elite-partner-benefits
Airpoints Elite Partner members may also invite one additional guest (subject to space available) into Air New Zealand Lounges (excluding Koru Express) and some partner lounges.


with the partner lounges link directing to
from https://www.airnewzealand.co.nz/elite-partner-benefits
"Remember to enter your Airpoints™ number at the time of making your booking, and always carry your Airpoints™ Gold, Elite, Elite Partner or Koru membership card to display to Lounge Hosts when accessing our Partner lounges."

The list of lounges below this text says one guest at LAX - I take that as the elite partner can take a guest

Be aware that LAX can be packed. And they may say space is not available for guests.
At night I have been there and there were no spare seats inside. A few outside.

My EP took a guest into LAX in late Jan with no issues - never seems to be that busy when I'm there though
