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.
