Family guests T5 lounge

I’ve got a flight with me + daughter in F coming up, partner + other son (12) daughter (10) on a different flight (same day) in J. Could we guest them into the Concorde at T5? It seems to be one guest each only their flight has no F so cannot even UuA to get them in that way.

BA F passengers can access the CCR and guest one person each only. Unfortunately you are one short

Hi Karfa, would there be no flexibility at all given that two of them are kids?

Very unlikely. It's discussed often in here.

They take up one seat each so not likely, if they were an infant-in-arms it would work.

FWIW - our kids (15 and 14) don't like the CCR really and prefer the GF lounge.

... as do some adults on this forum!

The OP would still have the same issue with being one gusting spot short for the GF.

Well that would have been relevant to the CCR access too and the OP wouldn't have had an issue to start with if so.

I think it is reasonable to assume the OP would have said something if a GGL.

Yup, I'm no GGL. Good excuse to get some serious TP earning in though

You could all have a family outing in Galleries Club though.

What date are you travelling, it may be that someone else on here travelling on that day may be able to guest one in for you status and timing dependent.

Yes, this would be a good outcome. There is a travel meet up thread where people can arrange to meet up when travelling.
