Weather room or not, who cares. But give your flying partner the courtesy of a text, email, or phone call so that they know not to meet at the FPA. It's in the FOM, and expecting your flying partner to assume that it's cool to ignore that part is not ok. Signed, a guy who has walked from my commuter flight past our departure gate, then many more gates, then to a tunnel, to meet with no one. When Captains take the time to shoot an email about meeting at the jet, it shows that they value your time and effort.
