Does anyone have experience on how early you can checkin for a NZ flight either in SFO or in general?
Have a friend who is booking NZ flights to SFO and returning with me. But their SFO - AKL flight leaves 3 hours after me so assuming we go to the airport together that would be 4-5 hours before their flight.

Would they be able to checkin and get into the partner SQ lounge that early.
I know the NZ website says 3 hours Partner Lounges - Lounge Information - Koru - Airpoints - Air New Zealand - Australia Site but what are peoples experience with this? Is it generally ok or will they get turned away until that 3 hour mark ticks over?
