Actually, the lounge Dragon was correct. The wording of the policy is misleading because the names of the lounges are misleading. *G gets access to any *G lounge and most contract lounges (on that I think we all agree). But.....UClub only gets access to *A lounges. NOT *G lounges. Currently there are very few actual *A lounges (LAX/CDG/LHR/NGO) I may be missing a few. This is what was "intended" for the rules to mean but the confusion comes from lack of consistency, training, etc. some *G lounges will admit Uclub, some *A business lounges will admit (like LH/LX/OS) but "technically" those Dragons should not admit Uclub. They only were intended to get admittance to *A branded lounges as mentioned above)
