I've definitely taken a guest in to the F lounge recently who was not flying on CX/KA. He was on United. I'm DM. According to these updated rules - which I was totally clueless on, I thought I could bring anyone in (I've brought in an airport staff before) - he shouldn't have been allowed in. In reality they just waved him through when I gave the lounge card.

Interesting - The below was what I saw in the "i" info under DM a few days ago:

1. Guests can be travelling on any airline, as long as they are accompanied by a member and access the lounge in accordance with the member’s entitlement.
2. If the member is travelling on a non-Cathay Pacific/non-Dragonair/non-oneworld carrier flight, guest access is restricted to Cathay Pacific Business Class lounges and Dragonair lounges.
However, when I return to the page now, it says:

1. Available only to members and guests departing on Cathay Pacific, Dragonair or oneworld carrier flights.

yea...i think the question is did it recently change. in the other forum, a guy said it hasn't changed so i think i just never noticed that (and CX has never enforced it).

Yeh i remember quite clerly that with nonOW fliers its only J lounge (on paper). Never was it F lounge ok.

However, the dragons would hardly care... To a certain extent

At least as of 2012 the rule was that 1) GO could bring a guest travelling on any airline and 2) DM could bring 2 guests travelling on any airline to F if DM is taking an OW FLT and 3) to J if DM is taking non-OW FLT.
