I have spruced up the Wiki a little bit - updated the Clubhouse list and added links to each. I've also added a list of invites/offers.

Hoping to find someone who could kindly guest my parents into the LHR clubhouse on 29/09 (departing late morning on VS5).
It's their first time flying premium VS... I've booked them UC on their return, but could only get them PE on the outbound. I've told them about the LHR clubhouse before, and was hoping somehow they could experience it for themselves!
If anyone could help out that would be greatly appreciated

My wife and I will be in JFK T4 the afternoon of 9/25 for a few hours before taking a DL J flight to mainland Europe and would love to check out the Clubhouse if anyone is around to guest us in.
Flight was booked with VS miles but it’s my understanding that still doesn’t get us into the Clubhouse since it’s on DL metal.

If you were then you could use the CH even if flying in DeltaOne
Please also note that any host must be on the same flight as the guest so it is always a good idea to state flight numbers.

Thank you. I was unaware of the part about being on the same flight. I'm on DL410 JFK-MAD. I searched extensively for Virgin's lounge access policy and couldn't find it anywhere. I only found DL's access policy. Being on the same flight certainly lowers my chances. Guess I'll have to tough it out in the T4 Sky Club.

Requesting and offering (1) invite on October 1, 2018
Hi All,
Stupid question - I am flying LHR-LAX (VS 141) in PE as a Delta Platinum (allowing me one guest). Good friend is flying DL LHR-ATL (DL 33/VS 4009)that day with no status. Can he be my guest even though we are on different itineraries? If not, may I please request an invite for the LHR-ATL guest? I'd be glad to offer up my guest for someone on the same LHR-LAX itinerary. If the itineraries don't need to be identical, then I will delete this post =)
Thanks in advance,
ab

Hey, yes unfortunately you do need to be travelling on the same flight in order to guest in your friend. Thanks for adding yourself to the Wiki!
