WorldClub Entry Age?

How old do you have to be to enter WorldClubs? It says on their website 21, but do they ever make exceptions? Even if you have a membership or if you are traveling by yourself?

You need to be 21 or guested in by someone older for NW WC. If you're too young you might want to look at AA where you only have to be 18. I believe that's possible because the bar is attended cash.

That's a shame, but could you find a stranger and gift them into the worldclub as someone over 21, then allowing you into the WorldClub.

Yes, but you might want to take a look at a recent thread over on the CO forum where some members complained to PC agents about a poster asking for admission.

Not to mention, the person that brings you in bears responsibility for you, and I would not risk my membership on the actions of someone who randomly asked me for entry.

No, I don't think you understand me. I buy the membership to a WorldClub whether its a day pass, 60 day etc and then I find a stranger to act as the person over 21 so I could enter the lounge and the stranger could as well for free as my guest.

I don't think they will even let you buy a membership unless you are 21.

How often do they actually check your age?

I hope never, but I'm only 16 so it might look obvious.

How tall are you? Also wearing a suit and tie often helps make you look older....granted if you are using your underage ID that totally gives it away. Got a passport?

I actually had one of my guests carded at DCA a couple years back. He was 25... Of course they use that semi-bar setup there.

NW won't sell you either a 60 day membership or a full membership if you are under 21. Your best bet might be to apply the 125 toward buying internet in the terminal and making yourself as comfortable as possible. There is always a possibility someone will guest you in, but understand it is a high risk maneuver for whomever is letting you in.
