We are traveling together again in a couple weeks, so will try our luck again.
Ah, well there you go. Isn't that freeloading? Chairman = Tata?
As far as I'm concerned, given that they won't officially let my wife into the lounge if she's travelling with me, we don't book Emirates if she's flying. This probably isn't good for their bottom line, but it's what they've mandated.
