- Customer must also present a boarding pass for a Star Alliance flight departing from the local airport having a contract with the third party lounge
- Customer is entitled to one guest. Guest must be departing on the same carrier as the eligible Star Alliance Gold customer
- Paid Lounge Membership Customers are not entitled to use any contract lounges
I did not know this applied to contract lounges as well...I thought it was only where the *A GOLD logo was displayed only. Fortunately I am yet to fly my first flight as a *G so I'm glad I'm here on ft for yall to point out.

The issue with getting into the domestic lounge are the people at pre-board security who would tell you that intl are not allowed in dom concourse.
