I was rather stunned when the lounge person suggested we were not eligible. I pointed out that I had BOTH the same day flight boarding card from JNB and I was boarding a flight that was unquestionably an international flight under the Montreal convention. A supervisor intervened but I wondered if anyone else had this experience.
The agent was wrong. As part of a connecting itinerary your *G status is sufficient to provide you entrance to the lounge inbound off an international flight when flying onward on a domestic flight.
