Am I also right that only LH’s own frequent flyers are able to purchase access?
Am I missing anything that could give us all access on Economy tickets?
Forget about them giving you exception. These dragons even put up their faces when we were approaching the lounge desk with the kids. They have almost prepare their speech of saying you can't guest more than 1. I normally grabbed all the BPs and told them that we are all *G. A lot of them look shocked.
A lot of EBG thinks that bringing their whole family is a *G policy and I saw a EBG arguing with a lounge dragon at IST lounge because the husband has EBG and want to bring in the wife and a 2 years old. The wife kept saying "the child is only 2 year old" and "SAS always let us into the lounge".
Anyways, maybe another pax going into the lounge can guest your youngest in? I don't know if *A has rolled out the policy that someone you guest has to be on the same flight as you.
If you have long stops at FRA and MUC, there are supermarkets at the landside where you can buy something cheap to eat. Also, if the stops are long enough, you can even go out as MUC has a shopping center like thing just outside the terminal.
I think AMEX plat can let in 4. We were lucky enough at LHR that the dragon said if we write a good review she would let us in and we did. I did give a good review in return.
Check loungebuddy if they sell the access that you need. Normally they are too expensive to be worthwhile in my opinion.
