This is a master thread to post any lounge meet up requests / invite requests forum members might have. It'd be great if you could post your lounge guesting/request in the same format as below...
A reminder - those offering guesting are quite happy to be guested to a superior lounge!
If you have the ability to make changes to the WIKI, please do so yourself rather than replying to the thread! If you are asking to be guested, please only add to the wiki - do not post in the thread.
OFFER REQUEST MEET (i.e. will be there but can't guest) dd-MMM-yyyy / hh:mm / XXX / Terminal Lounge / FlyerTalkName
Please note the date format so as to avoid confusion
Please do not write OFFER/MEET; if you are able to guest someone in, it is implied you can also meet them without guesting them in.

To be more correct was in the DOM YYZ MLL until minutes ago...
At 9:27 EST.,,,
"For security reasons everyone must leave the lounge now. This is not a decision we take lightly"... in English and French repeated 3 times.
No panic. Lounge emptied very quickly. 5 elevator loads to empty.
No explanation.

Would be interesting to hear the backstory behind this one as I've been to dozens of lounges (some in questionable parts of the world) and never experienced anything like it!

News article on the security thing, but says package found at 8:45, quite a while before they evacuated lounge as per @Ew/oQ.

What a relief! I thought for a second that a FTer left some copies of Errorplan in the MLL - a real cause for concern!

I'm a bit underwhelmed by the food offerings here today. Rice balls but no proper sushi.

YYZ Intl til about 7:30.
Random question, what’s with AC policy to hold onto my BP until I’ve finished with the shower? I mean what’s it to prevent? First off I have the backup on my phone but what if I only had my electronic one?
Seems strange, not seen it before... Not sure I’ve ever used a MLL shower before actually, not that impressed compared to the UC ones but it did the job and I checked the towels weren’t wet and the glass wasn’t breaking so all good on that side of things.

ANA lounge in NRT also keeps your BP.
BR Infinity lounge in TPE also keeps your BP.
UA Polaris in SFO and ORD ask to see it but I don't recall them keeping it.
Not all of them do, but some.

You can add the excellent FJ lounge in NAN and the LX lounge in ZRH to that list - but as @24left says, there may be many others.
