Hey, in three weeks I'll be flying SilkAir from Penang and then transiting through SIN onwards to Perth as a Velocity Platinum (or Gold if my new membership card doesn't turn up in time). Four of my friends are on the same booking/PNR, but without any status.

I'm aware that I should have access to priority check-in in Penang and priority boarding for both flights. But what about the four guests traveling with me on the same booking? Can we all check-in together and board together, if I had all their boarding passes in my hand with mine on top for example?

Just want to avoid any potential awkward situations like 'sorry your friends need to go back to the other line'. Thanks for any assistance :)

I've been able to use SQ priority check-in when travelling with other family members (who didn't have any status) without issue. Everyone was checked in. You should be fine :)
 
Many times ive been my husbands plus one on a booking and I joined him on priority check in and boarding. Just stick together.

BTW, if your WP status has been upgraded on the VA system, it should show on your boarding pass as well.

Just walk up confidently and do it anyway!
 
Can't speak for Penang, but have had a non-status wife travel with me on several occasions with SQ and other airlines and use the priority queue without incident. Given it's the same PNR, it's probably less hassle for the staff to check you all in together than to do it in two groups. I say give it a go.
 
Have only done +1 out of PEN, not +4, but the check-in staff there were pretty friendly and it was no problem whatsoever.
