I was wondering if you could help me with a question about Admirals Clubs. I have a OneWorld Sapphire card provided by British Airways, so I can use the Admirals Clubs on domestic flights or before international flights (I often do this as JFK, BOS, and PHL, but sometimes ORD too which is probably my favourite!).

I have only used the Admirals Clubs PRIOR to flights before though so I'm asking here about access AFTER flights. If I were to land on an AA flight from DUB to JFK, would I be able to use the Admirals Club in JFK for a shower even though I didn't have an onward connection?

(The AA flight from JFK-DUB has preclearance so I'd land into the US as a domestic arrival so could walk straight to the Admirals Club, rather than finding myself landside after a direct flight from LHR/CDG/ZRH for instance). I guess the same question could also be asked when flying domestically in the US too, wanting a shower at the end of XXX to BOS.

I thought this might be most appropriate here given it is a question about Admirals Clubs rather than the BAEC.

The oneworld rules state you must be departing on another oneworld flight, iirc. So, technically, arriving JFK from DUB and not connecting onward on a oneworld airline, no. But ask, as they might.
