Even though the agent assured me we wouldn't be allowed through the "G" security lines, we got through without issue -- when the BP checker kindly informed us that we were in the wrong terminal for Asiana, I simply told him that we wanted to hang out in the Singapore Airlines Lounge for a bit, and he smiled and let us through.
This is good to know. I had asked on some other forums if someone can visit the other *G lounges at SFO (UA and SQ), especially important if one was flying AC or OZ in Y, but with *G status, since neither the China Dynasty (OZ contract) or Delta (AC contract) lounges are *G. I did not get a clear answer, but some responses indicated that the TSA did not allow access to the UA/SQ concourse. I guess it depends on the agents on duty at the time.
