Lounge Access at BOM
As a Star Alliance gold member, do I get lounge access for a guest who is also flying a Star Alliance carrier while at BOM? I'm asking this because there are no Star Alliance lounges here, but only contract lounges.
|
Yes you do. The *A airline that you're checking-in with will issue a lounge card for you and your guest. Make sure they're present with you.
|
The airline you are flying will have a contract with one of the lounges, and will issue you an invitation as a *G

Not necessary to be on the same flight. *A rules. I've done this flying UA with a friend on AI.

While I am not sure about the rule, it would be difficult task to explain and convince the air India staff. In fact I always struggle to ask them to add my UA ff number at the time of check in.
And yes it is a *A rule. |

Next time show them the below. It’s standard *A benefits and the actual *G benefit doesn’t refer “paid” tickets at all. It’s valid for all types of tickets.: https://www.flyingreturns.co.in/html/pc_maharajah.php

With AI staff, I am not very hopeful of winning this battle. At other stations you're probably right. I've had AI staff discuss among themselves whether as a SQ KEF (*G) I should get lounge access; as a AI TMC should I get lounge access on an award ticket. I've also had AI staff giving Mrs. Piper lounge access when she was traveling alone on an award ticket booked through my AI TMC account because somehow they thought she was TMC! |
I am flyinh BOM to LHR, with 9W in J. Which lounge will I access in BOM? Is it any good?
|
GVK East Wing Lounge. It's a very good lounge, you can find detailed reviews with a quick Google search.
|
If you are in transit - how do you get a lounge invitation ? |
