You will indeed. Hold on to your inbound boarding pass and present it at the reception along with your onward boarding pass.

There are some photos in this thread that illustrate the direct route after Flight Connection's security search. It's not well signposted.

I was wondering if I will have access to the JFK Concorde Room during my connection LHR-JFK-YVR.
I'm arriving from LHR to JFK on BA First; however,outbound from JFK to YVR on CX First. Flights arrive and depart from the same JFK terminal.
I know that I can fly into LHR on BA First and connect to a IB Business flight and still have access to the LHR Concorde Room.
I was wondering if JFK Concorde Room has the same type of policy.

You would definitely have Flounge access at T7, however.

The response was as follows:
Dear Mr Passy777
Thank you for writing to the Club about accessing lounges.
The Concorde lounge is only available for passengers travelling in First.
As you are flying a domestic sector, you can only access the Galleries Club T5A & T5B lounge at London Heathrow airport.
I hope I have been able to clarify your particular concern.
Please let us know if we can help you with anything else.

I was under the impression that as long as I produced my inbound First boarding pass at the entrance to the CCR, I would have access to it.
I fully explained that I would be arriving into LHR in First prior to my domestic sector (on the same day), so either I have misinterpreted the access requirements or the BAEC agent has got it wrong.
Hopefully it was just a lazy answer - it did take over two weeks for a response!

I contacted BAEC with a similar question as I would be arriving into LHR in First (BA metal)and continuing my journey to NCL (on the same day) and I have been informed that I will not have access to the CCR.
