Yes - simply go to the check-in desk (you can use the F desk as BA Gold) when you return to the airport, or even at the Airport Express check-in.

There's a similar discussion going on in another thread, but this one seems most relevant to my situation, so...

Does anyone know whether the advice in these posts from a few years ago is still current? My wife and I will arrive HKG from SFO at about 6:50 a.m. and depart for Bangkok at 8 p.m., so we'd like to go to an F lounge, likely in the Wing, then shower and perhaps rest up a bit, and then head into town for a good part of the day. So is it still possible to leave our luggage in the F section (we'll be on an F ticket, plus I'm OW Emerald) and get a pass to get us back through Arrivals so we can exit the airport?

Thanks for any advice.
