    I’m BA Silver and I’m travelling EDI to LHR later today with hand luggage only. I’m travelling with a colleague who doesn’t have BA status and they are checking in a bag. We are both flying on an economy ticket.

    I know my Silver status gets both us through fast track security and gets both of us into the BA lounge, but can they use the business class check-in queue as my guest even though I’m not checking in a bag?

    Thanks.

    Yes, even if not on the same booking just walk with them to the Business Class counter and there should not be an issue.

    Check in will be fine but regarding the bag am not sure which fare type you have, if its hand baggage only then obviously cant check in the bag even with silver benefits as does not apply to HBO

    Yes. Just walk together to the desk.
