When I was 1P, I used my Star Gold to access the RCC in PHX when I used to do PHX-SFO-NRT-BKK-NRT-LAX-PHX. I used my Star Gold card and my SFO-NRT boarding pass for entry to the PHX RCC.

I also used the Star Gold card and BKK-NRT BP (stub) for access to the LAX RCC.

Never had any problems.

IIRC, the Star Alliance lounge access rules only say "same day [international] departure." It doesn't say that you have to be departing internationally from that airport.

Thanks for the positive feedback!

Sorry for the confusion on the lounge. We were both only premiers at the time. My husband says this translates as 2p. We crossed 50,000 eqm on the last flight of the trip. Little did I know this trip was a cleverly disguised mileage run to get us both to Premier Executive!
