It was US, but I remember once running into someone I knew on a flight to PHL. I didn't know him [B]that[B] well (he was only the EVP of the company that had just fired me!) and we didn't talk after we got off the plane, but he got to the US club just after I did. In hindsight I'm not sure why he was going there if he didn't have entry credentials, but he asked me to guest him in. The agents said "That's not allowed" but they relented when we explained that we knew each other and worked for the same company. (A white lie, but I still had my business cards, and he wasn't the one who fired me, so I didn't mind.) Maybe the fact that it was 7:45AM and the joint was empty played a role too.
