Pretty sure it was the wheelchair and "traveling with grandma" plus me not even asking if he could come in. Always loved that lounge and liked it even more after that.

I see you are Diamond. I guess you didn't get the partner status match perk for your wife? If so, then obviously all 4 could enter no problem. Maybe give it a try with the kids behind you and wave them off to one of the nice AA lounges?
