2, Yes they will. But it would be difficult for HKG because HKg is CX's hub and there are capacity issue. BA/QF shares a lounge at this moment and maybe RJ and AY will be served by BA/QF lounge in future (I hope so)...JFK already host CX but there is rumors that BA may be moved to T8 with AA....
I would take 0.25 over nothing. Many CX discounted fares earn nothing on nothing on JAL and AA!

JAL opts to use a 3rd party lounge at HKG instead of CX/QF ones...and they used to use the Eva lounge at LAX too...Doesn't sound like joint lounge is the most cost effective way in some cases...
