First class lounge access at LAX
Hi all,
I am trying to schedule a trip CDG-LAX-PPT using my miles.
Ideally, I would love to fly first from start to finish, but there is no first class from LAX to PPT
So I am about to book CDG-LAX in first (162.500 miles) and another ticket LAX-PPT in busines (90.000 miles, which I find very expensive)
I have a 10 hour stop at LAX.
My question is : would you have any idea or experience if I am entitled to use a first class lounge or first class experience at LAX in this case ?
Thanks

With the recent award mileage increase, CDG-LAX First Class is now 200,000 miles each way.
And you won't even get New First.

You can call FB and ask to book the award ticket under the old situation, where CDG-LAX was 162.500 instead of the 200k. Do this before the end of August though. From september 1st you can only book by the new miles amount!
