The Pier re-opened on 1 August 2003 and is now open daily from 7.30am to 11.30pm.
Considering only one flight is scheduled to arrive before 07:00 (at 06:30, from SFO), I don't think it is really reasonable to expect The Wing to open before that time. As things stand, CX are already being flexible enough to open the downstairs portion of the lounge to passengers who get in early, so I'm not sure what more one can in good faith expect.
