What's really surprising about this story is the fact that the check in agent didn't escort OP and their guests to the lounge. I was under the impression that this service has been offered to GS (in addition to the car ride on the tarmac) passengers, especially those at foreign airports like MXP.

I was never expecting an escort to the lounge (although after walker over 100 miles in 14 days my feet would approve). I was actually told once that they cannot do the Mercedes if you have kids under 18 traveling with you for some reason (can't remember the reason but sounded plausible).
I really don't care that I was at first rejected because technically I don't think I should have been granted access by the normal rules. Why was puzzling was the "1k can bring in 8 guests" written on their access sheet but no reference to GS at all.
