UC reward tickets & guest lounge access

I have a UC reward ticket booked. Can I bring a guest into the VS Clubhouse who is travelling VS economy on another route that day that leaves at a later time from me and can she stay in the lounge till her flight leaves (after mine does)?

I believe so. The fact you are on a reward ticket shouldn't make any difference, and as long as you guest is flying on VS on the same day, I don't think they're on a separate flight makes a difference either. Others may be able to confirm that.

Cheers for that Pix. Was also going to start a similar thread with that question. A couple of extras also:

Me and the other half will be flying UC (one reward, one bought) and we'll be with someone also on the same flight flying either PE or E. Will we be able to have them check in with us as a guest at the UC check in? Also, what do you think of the chances of the cabin crew letting him join us for a drink at the bar. We're guessing that a meal with us will be a no no but just a drink?

p.s - I'm really excited about checking in with an orchid on the desk!

I've had no problem checking in with friends at the Upper Class desk even though they're not also in Upper - I think you have to be sensible with it though, and as long as you're all on the same flight and it's not a coach party, they won't be sent away.

As for a drink at the bar, that'll be at the discretion of the in-flight supervisor. Check with them, and make it clear you understand it might not be possible if it's busy at the bar and that your guest will be happy to return to their seats if the bar gets busy while they are there. Normally your IFS will be happy to oblige, but they will want to make sure the facilities are available to J Class passengers in the first instance.

Reward 'G' Class ticket will admit a guest to the Clubhouse.

On the check-in thing, its now been changed to you and one guest only.

Thanks,

Hiya

Can I use the Revivals lounge on that ticket also. Guessing I can. Hope so as my partner will be on a bought ticket and I'll be miffed if I'm left out.

Yup, if you travelled on a VS-coded Upper Class ticket (as opposed to a CO fare), you can use revivals, regardless of whether it was a reward flight or not. VS are nice like that. Note there's no guest access to Revivals though.
