A person who is being escorted or accompanied, especially someone receiving protection or official guidance.
From 'escort' (to accompany) with the French suffix '-ee' indicating the person receiving the action. This suffix is used in English in words like 'employee' and 'refugee.'
The '-ee' suffix is brilliant because it always shows who receives the action—an 'escortee' is escorted, an 'employee' is employed, a 'trainee' is trained, making it instantly clear who the receiver is in a relationship.
