Asian Gold lounge access even without card?
Having gone from Silver Elite in 2007 to Gold Elite in 2008, my Asian Gold elite status now gives me access to WorldClubs and the other airline partner lounges. But as that nice little NW Gold Elite card (with that wording at the bottom stating access to those lounges) has not and may not arrive for some time, I will have no physical proof (not even the paper card of a temp membership) of NW WorldClub access. (The temp paper card available for printout on the NW.com website doesn't include the lounge access text.) I don't expect any problem with WorldClubs (as they can simply look up my info), but can I expect problems gaining access to the partner lounges?

At the first WC, they can look up your membership with your WP number. Then have them give you a temp membership card so that you can use the partner lounges without hassels.
