Would someone be kind enough to advise if I would have access to the regular RCC Lounge in ORD with the following routing: (no *A status)

ICN-ORD on OZ (Business Class)
ORD-YYZ on UA (Business Class)

Reason for confusion is last year I did gain access when trans-pacific flight was in F instead of C. Will I still have access this year?

(I did see this in the RCC Wiki, which has only confused me further):

34NI/ * * * INTERNATIONAL DEFINITION * * *
35NI/ TO OR FROM THE UNITED STATES EXCLUDING SAN JUAN
36NI/ CUSTOMERS WHO TRAVEL TO CANADA MEXICO AND
37NI/ CARRIBEAN DESTINATIONS WILL BE TREATED AS INTL AND
38NI/ CUSTOMERS WILL HAVE ACCESS TO THE RED CARPET CLUB
39NI/ **HOWEVER THEY ARE NOT ENTITLED TO DRINK CHITS**



Thanks!

As a premium cabin *A departing passenger will you have access to all *A lounges per *A rules. No guests.
So, yes for ORD UC.

The Wiki policies posting were pre-merger U and should not be depended on in the new era.

For *G flying international, I was informed by the lounge dragon that I can only bring one guest, no children. Is this correct? For some reason I thought there was an exception for family members, but maybe that another program.

UC members have family access at UCs.
