BA Gold partner lounge guesting question
Morning All,
I have searched Ba and OW forums with no luck
I'm intending to start listing my flights on BA97.com and guesting thread but wondering if my BA gold allows me to guest people when I'm flying on a OW partner.
I tend to do 6-7 RTW pa on BA/AA/CX/Q/MH.
Thank you for your time and help in advance
Gene

As others have noted, yes but with the condition that the guest is flying on a oneworld marketed and operated flight:
http://www.oneworld.com/ffp/lounge-access
Members of oneworld airline frequent flyer programmes with the equivalent of oneworld Emerald or Sapphire tier status can use lounges offered by oneworld airlines when departing on any flight marketed and operated by any oneworld member airline, regardless of cabin class being flown (exceptions are noted below).
...
Emerald and Sapphire members may invite one guest to join them in the lounge. The guest must also be travelling on a flight operated and marketed by a oneworld carrier.
...
The following exceptions apply:
1. American Airlines and Qantas offer programmes enabling customers to pay to gain access to their lounges. These programmes are not part of the oneworld agreement, and members of these programmes are not entitled to access lounges under the oneworld agreement.
2. American Airlines AAdvantage members, regardless of their tier status or class of travel, cannot access American Airlines lounges when travelling solely on North American flights within or between the U.S., Canada, Mexico (except Mexico City), the Bahamas, Bermuda and the Caribbean. For more information, visit, http://www.aa.com/i18n/travelInforma...miralsClub.jsp
3. Qantas Frequent Flyer Gold members, regardless of their oneworld tier status, cannot access Qantas Domestic Business Lounges.
4. Qatar Airways Doha International Airport Premium Terminal is excluded.
5. Qatar Airways Premium Lounge at LHR Terminal 4 is excluded.
