I'm a gold card holder and I'm going on holiday with my parents for the first time in 5+ years. I'd love to get them both into the lounge at LGW. I know it's not allowed officially but I've seen a few people comment that they've managed to ask nicely and get an extra family member in. I'd love to hear your experience with this and any tips on how to ask in the right way or am I being completely out of line and should I not ask at all?

Thanks everyone!
