Please see post 2 for the latest lounge guesting offers and requests. Please check ba97.com in the first instance.
As always, PM the person to confirm, as I (Stez) make no guarantees to the accuracy of my updates and the invites may have gone to someone else. Times are presumably local, and is when you are in the lounge or ready to be invited. Usually those offering invites themselves will be happy to be guested into a superior lounge - there is no need to make a combined offer/request (offer GC but want a better lounge).
It'd be great if you could post your lounge guesting/request in the same format as below... OFFER|REQUEST dd-MMM-yyyy / hh:mm-hh:mm / XXX / Terminal Lounge / FlyerTalkName
Eg, OFFER 32-JAN-2010 / 15:00-17:30 / LHR / T5 GC / Stez
Alternatively, angatol created a script which is run in your web-browser using Greasemonkey Firefox extension, and formats your quick reply box with flights from your PNR in the format as above. Just change times to when you are available to guest, and change OFFER to REQUEST/lounge where appropriate. No private information is sent to anyone except checkmytrip.com, it is all executed on your web browser.
To search this thread for any particular dates you are interested in to see if anyone else is offering or requesting, just use the "Search this Thread" function, and put the date in double quotes, eg "30-OCT-2013"
Upcoming BA FlyerTalk Dos:
Possible SYD Do in mid-January...
Maybe one in Cornwall?

REQUEST 24-NOV-2013 / 11:00 / LHR / T5 any / bookish
Very short notice, but there are now three of us going to Manchester, not just two and it would be somewhat churlish on my part to only guest in one to the lounge and make the other do laps of T5.

Just a polite reminder to try and keep offers/requests in similar format as explained in Wiki entry or look at post 2 - don't forget to include your FT name!
There is also an increasing use of wholly lower case entries... fine if it's just one or two isolated ones, but if you are able to type in upper cases where relevant, that would be good also.
---
As we go into the new year, do anyone have any comments on the format of my entries?
For instance, I am considering a change from just a single time to a range, eg, 14:00-18:30 rather than just 14:00. However, I am also trying to keep clutter to a minimum.
