Qantas guest pass - use in Dubai?

[kkay]

Hi,
I'm flying to Dubai and London (with Emirates flight number) in July with 2 of my children 19 an 13. I am a member of Q Club. If I take the 19year old in as my guest will they allow me to bring my 13 year old in as well? Would a Club Lounge guest pass be valid in Dubai and London since I'm on an EK ticket? (If I buy a pass for the 13year old?)
Thanks for any advice.
Kkay

As it is an associated lounge the Qantas family policy does not apply and you wont be able to use a guest pass, however in these situations the lounge is often likely to say yes for common sense reasons:

Qantas Lounges

• Children of Qantas Club members aged 18 years and over are counted as a guest of a member if they don't have their own membership.
• The service of alcohol to anyone under the age of 18 years (21 years for USA) is not permitted.
• Children under the age of 18 years must be accompanied by an adult when visiting any lounge, except in the United States of America, where all persons under the age of 21 years must be accompanied by a person aged 21 years or older.

BA and oneworld lounges

When entering a British Airways or oneworld lounge, children over 2 years of age are counted as a guest and access is limited accordingly. This is with the exception of the oneworld Los Angeles Tom Bradley Lounge where Qantas Club members may be accompanied by two children up to 18 years of age in addition to their counted guests.
Associated lounges

Associated lounges are in ports that Qantas flies to but where it does not operate its own lounge. Our associated lounges are operated by, or on behalf of, other airlines and the child policy varies according to the lounge policy of the particular lounge.
