Whats the point of "lounge passes"?
I was just wondering, as a Platinum member, I believe I am allowed to guest a guest into the lounge whenever I fly, so when one of my friend is flying on QR next week, without my presence, I thought I could gift one of the 5 lounge passes that is given as part of earning Platinum. However, on closer inspection, it would seem that these lounge passes can only be used in the member's presence.
What's the point of it then? Or does it mean that I can only guest 5 guests in total per year? Which is then against OW rules....?
Confused.
Any way to "guest" my friend into the lounge without me?
Thanks.
