Can a Guester be Guested?
So, just a random missive from my afternoon today.
I'm flying out of LHR on Monday morning with 4 friends. I'm GGL/CCR, and my wife has a Partner Gold card.
So, in theory, I can Guest 2 people into GF, and my wife can guest 1 into GF - so that covers everyone getting into the Lounge.
However, having Guested, could someone come and guest me into the CCR?

I do, but of the 5 travelling, only myself and my wife have status - and we thought it would be nice to have everyone in the same lounge...so GF opposed to CCR as I cannot guest 2 into the CCR (on this occasion).
However, the question still stands out of curiousity

I am guessing the OP wants to avoid awkward questions about his guests who are in GF. Bit rude to leave wife and guests behind too!

You'll be in the CCR (with your wife).
I presume the answer is that it's technically possible, morally questionable and possible you may be told to rejoin your guests.
P.S. What lounge are the tennis rackets in?

Yes, but why do you need to be guested into the CCR? That's what is a bit confusing.

are you asking for just yourself to be guested or the whole party into CCR?
edit: never mind, understood what you are trying to do?

Look what you wrote in the first post. You are asking to be "guested" in to the CCR - which makes no sense as you have access to it anyway - and implies that you want to abandon your guests - and your wife? - in a different lounge.

Sheesh this has confused people!
We will all be in GF as that is where I and my wife can guest EVERYONE into.
However, I wanted to know whether someone could (in theory) come and guest me into CCR? I'm not proposing doing it, but wanted to know whether the BA system could pick it up.

P.S. @Kgmm77 - I'll let you know about the tennis rackets on Saturday morning when I get to LHR!

OP can enter the CCR after guesting in his own right, though this may be frowned upon. (No reason why being guested into the CCR would be less frowned upon).
OP's wife can be guested into the CCR by a third party.
OP cannot guest his wife into the CCR, because he only has the option of guesting one into the CCR, or two into GF.
(I think).
