Good evening all, from a long time lurker...

My new employment doesn't allow me to travel as much as I'd like to, so upon slipping from SG to PS, I purchased a QP membership. (Whether a cup of coffee or an average wine per flight is worth the annual subscription fee is another question.)

My question here for you travel geniuses relates to guests in the QP, domestic.
As a QP member, I'm allowed one guest when I'm traveling, whether they are traveling or not.
I'm usually early for flights. If I want to meet a client at the QP who is not a member, I can bring them in on my membership as a guest. After we meet and discuss what we need to, that client leaves. A while later, a colleague who is traveling with me on my flight then turns up shortly before the flight and is dying for a coffee. Can I then take her in on my access? Or am I allowed only one guest per travel?
Should I have them page me when my second guest arrives at the desk? Or should I leave the Club, go out, then go back in with them again?
 
I believe it's one guest per flight, whether you leave and re-enter the lounge or not. You could get lucky if the person on the desk changes but don't believe it'd be in the spirit of the program.
 
I have often been allowed to take in another guest - tend to travel out of peak hours e.g Sunday afternoon. Just ask nicely and they either say yes or no. I don't think there is anything that says it is one per flight - I would interpret that as 1 at a time. However I thought the guest had to be travelling - or is that only internationally - I can never get my head around all the rules and just when I think I have they change them!

Yep, domestically the guest does not need to be travelling.
As for the OP's question I'd tend to agree with samh004's position. Certainly not documented, but I imagine one guest only is the intention. However as you say, if you ask nicely, they'll often oblige.
 
What if WP and not flying but guest is on QF, can both get into lounge?.
