Not very recently but I have used lounge at BRU with AY BP for the flight that was after 26 hours. Not a single question asked. You can try and worst answer you may get is NO

Not correct. As part of the initial batch, my membership year now ends at the end of January. I would presume some of us initial 93 would not have re-qualified.

Well Belgium isn't exactly a shining example of a well-managed anything.

Except for the BRU lounge - refer to 3rd party lounges thread. One of the best in Europe.

I believe there is a 6am clause in OW rules for lounge access the day before onward flight - if that may help you.
Not this time. Lounge Dragon let me and my 2 58Ö guests in which was much appreciated. Onward flight was at 8am.

Yes, I agree with you there - the lounge is great per se, but well ... it's still in Belgium, a failed state.

How many people have Lumotics successfully had accompanying them on the BMW ride? It looks like a possibility I'll get my one on a flight with the family (4 people total). I'm wondering if they are willing to take all 4 on the BMW, provided there are no other Lumotics?

Considering the middle seat panel/armrests in the car, I'm not sure where would the 4th person sit. Maybe politely asking the driver to take a bus to the terminal?

kindly ask the driver to step away and drive your family yourself

not sure what kind of BMW they use, but i assume 5 series or above, the trunk is easily enough to hide few
I have done it with my friends, he needs a ride and my car was full. so i offered trunk and the car was much smaller than 5 series.

Easy fix. You seat your family in the nice warm BMW and walk off to the Bus yourself like a superhero.

Nah, if we continue this discussion, this becomes now a neighbours balls topic. Let me chime in a hippie-alternative true Finnish production, Saab 96 it is! THAT would be cool.
