Taking two guests [plus 2 y/o] to Concorde room
Hi I'm travelling in F tomorrow to LAX and am also CCR holder. Do you know if I can bring two guests into the Concorde room or do I need to go to the gold lounge?
Also my brother and his wife are traveling with their 2 years old son, does he count as guest???
Thanks

Yes to the first, see this for the "two guests for GGL flying F" policy:

Technically, the child is a third guest. I have seen exceptions applied, especially in outstations, never in the CCR.

So, are you really asking whether you can take three guests into the Concorde Room?

Sorry OP i'm afraid not in this instance, CCR is unlikely to make an exception. GF will welcome you all in however. Are they travelling with you in seperate class? At least you can invite one at a time up for a drink.

If the CCR won't let the OP in (I expect they will tbh) then GF won't do either unless another member of the party is a GCH. A GGL in F doesn't get 3 guests into any lounge.

It never hurts to ask nicely, and prepare to walk away with a smile and a shrug if the answer is 'no'. Given you're a CCR card holder and travelling in first, I'd be surprised if they turned you away though!

If so, as the 2 year old will not appreciate the LPGS, he will have to wait outside.

In practical terms it is of course very likely that a CCR holder would be a GGL, but there certainly were some CCR holders (and probably still are some) that are not GGLs.
