Another option - I'd suggest you look at the other thread on this forum about lounge access. There are often people around who will guest folks into the lounge if pre-arranged. Post your dates up there and if they coincide with when I'm next travelling I'd be glad to guest one of your children in, as would many others.

The problem is that if one set of staff working the lounge bend the rules for the OP, the next time they try to enter the lounge and ask the same they could quite easily and rightly so be told no. This then brings up the " well it wasn't a problem the last time I turned up "
