Domestic J lounge access with an international OLCI BP

[drpil]

I think I can do this, but would be keen to get the opinion of the collective knowledge here...

I am a WP flying SYD-SIN in J on QF metal on Friday with a carry-on bag only. I am sharing a ride to the airport with my in-laws who are flying SYD-MRZ on Qantaslink the same morning. If I hop out of the uber at T3 with them, can I get them into the domestic J lounge on my international printed boarding pass? (before making my way over to T1 for some Flounging prior to the international flight).

Cheers

Absolutely. Actually as a WP your guests don't even need to be flying anywhere.

Can't imagine there'd be a problem with that. Enjoy SYD F.

Technically your guests are meant to leave the lounge when you do, but if they’re busy the staff may not notice and enforce this. YMMV

Is that referenced anywhere? OW rules say that you can guest anyone travelling same day on any OW flight, I can't imagine that they expect the guest to leave before their own flight starts boarding! I've guested colleagues many times in HKG travelling on separate flights and they were never asked to leave after I had left.

Guests can stay after the member leaves if in a domestic lounge or if not travelling with the member in an international lounge.

The latter is a given as the guest will be on a departing oneworld flight and the bp would reveal timing.

Domestically I would not advertise, it may be quite OK but I have seen no public policy and with that it it better to avoid 'policy' being made on the run.

Thanks all
Thought that might be the case, but wanted to be sure

I believe QF/VA domestic lounge guests don't need to be travelling, regardless of your status. You can guest people who are seeing you off at the airport.
