    Just to confirm – I’m a BA gold member with a First ticket. I am travelling with 2 friends who have booked at short notice in economy (same flights). Usually a gold can bring one guest into the F lounge regardless of cabin, and an F ticket alone is also enough to bring one guest into the CCR – nevertheless I believe I can only take one guest in the Concorde room – and to confirm, there is no prospect of guesting the second friend into the F lounge for example?

    Upon arriving back to LHR in F, I plan to use the CCR based on my arriving F ticket and onwards same day BA flight. Can I still take that one guest with me (also on the same onwards BA flight but he having arrived in economy).

    My understanding is the T5 arrivals lounge does not permit any guest access in this scenario.

    On the same topic – can I take a guest into the First dining in IAD? Thanks

    You and a one guest have access to the CCR, your Gold status does not add an extra guest into the equation in either the FLounge or the CCR. This works the same for both legs of your journey.

    No guest access to the arrivals lounge or the preflight dinning at IAD (**).

    (**) first one I know is no guest. Second one … well it’s IAD so it may or may not – I’m certain it’s an F pfd not a separate F area so am pretty certain it’s no guests
