In currently in Kuala Lumpur, flying to Bangkok on 2nd May, arriving about 10pm.

On 3 May, at 13.45, I have a First Class ticket with Emirates from BKK-HKG.

I am wondering is there any way I could use the Emirates Lounge overnight instead of paying for a hotel? Now, I don't mean sleep with my feet up, I merely mean sit there, use laptop, read papers, eat etc. Or is the lounge shut at night?

I could ask Thai to pass my bags on to EK which would mean not having to go through immigration and baggage reclaim.

I have around 12hrs to kill. I wonder if EK offer their lounge to First customers even 'in transit' long before the flight?
