They don't want to give elites breakfast in the lobby restaurant, but they are stuck. By trying to address one issue (kids in the lounge before 9 am) they created another issue. By allowing only elites with kids under 12 years old breakfast in the lobby restaurant, it seems they are penalizing people without kids. I suggested to the front desk agent that I could rent a kid from outside.
The lounge manager joked it is another incentive to have kids.
