At HKG, DL has been using the QF business class lounge. [It's very good.] So there's precedent or at least other examples of DL paying for access to oneworld lounges in certain airports. If DL doesn't see fit to maintain a lounge at an airport where there should be one, for example for BE passengers, obviously DL should compare possibilities for contract lounges versus lounges operated by other carriers.
