Are they so sure about that? The food and overall experience is just as mediocre as all of the FLs

It’s stupid they decided to carve this one out but literally change nothing about the actual experience. At least SoHo and Greenwich feel premium, this one just feels like a AC with slightly more food/beverage options

Traveling on Sunday. I’m BA Gold (until end of April) but I just realized that the other family member whose BA Silver status would let him into Greenwich is losing his status on Feb 28th and will only be Bronze so no lounge access.

That means I can’t guest in both companions — unless I can find a friendly flyertalker or passing traveler to guest one of them in on their own card.

Or unless the situation with paid lounge passes has changed?

The BA97 Calendar seems pretty inactive, the BA forum lounge meetup thread isn’t much populated for March either.

Any other ideas? I guess we could all trek to the Admirals Club in the satellite concourse trough the tunnel under the runway but it’s likely that our flight to MXP will leave from the main concourse so that’s a bit annoying…

I would be surprised if your family member's BA silver to bronze downgrade is immediately recognized by AA's system. My advice is to show up at the Greenwich lounge and confidently tell them you're a OW Sapphire and ask them to manually enter the Avios #

I agree, and I would also try to check in and generate a BP on the 28th which still should reflect the silver status.

Fascinating! Only problem is, this family member is under 18. If I remember correctly, that sometimes gives an online checkin glitch.

But thanks for this very helpful info. I’ll try, and will report back

Would you recommend a printed PDF boarding pass rather than a mobile boarding pass which could risk being updated to downgrade the status on March 1st?

I suppose it can't hurt but I really don't think you need to worry about an AA BP being updated instantly to reflect a status downgrade on a OW carrier. You're giving their IT (and its ability to interact with BA IT) way too much credit.
