Children in lounges

brithk:

Under the oneworld lounge policy, frequent flyer cardholders eligible to use lounges may invite one guest to join them in the lounge. The guest could be adult or a child, but, officially, not both.

Some individual airlines may allow cardholders to be accompanied by an adult guest plus a child/children, but that is subject to the discretion and policy of the appropriate airline. As above, the policy is just one guest...

Hope this clarifies the situation for you.

Happy flying.

BUt is it the same for other One World airlines - a friend of mine was nearly turned away from a LHR BA lounge bcse he had 2 kids and his wife (diamond is allwoed 2 guests) - after some "discussion" he was allowed in. But what is the official stance - i imagine it may up to the airline in question, but if so that makes it very difficult to families to travel on one world airlines other than their own.

I certainly would never fly on another OW airline as the lounge is the only thing that makes travelling with Kids bearable...

thanks
