I gifted 3P to my GF last summer, and I can confirm that she's been able to bring a companion into E+ (adjacent seat of course...). We flew late August just after her status appeared on line, and we were able to get my daughter (based on my 1k status) and her son (based on her 3P status) into E+ with us. We also have a trip booked for this coming August, ticketed about a month ago, where once again, all 4 of us are reserved in E+.
