Well, what about INTERNATIONAL FULL FARE FIRST CLASS passengers who fly domestic segments on an American airline within the US to connect to a First Class International flight ON ANOTHER AIRLINE?
It would really pisses me off to to have to paid $10,000 for an International Full Fare First Class ticket on Cathay Pacific DFW-LAX-HKG vv. and have to put up with not being allowed into the Admirals Club on my American Airlines segment from DFW-LAX in domestic F just because the international flight I am connecting to is on another airline.
When flying First Class on Cathay Pacific, even short hops like Hong Kong to Taipei, I still get access to "The Wing", CX's lounge in Hong Kong for no additional charge!! Same for a short BA flight from London to Amsterdam where I can use the Executive Club lounge when flying Business class.
In conclusion: I am fed up with the American system!!!

You national carrier is bleeding $$$ left and right. Although you enjoy those great perks it apparently is not financially responsible of the airline to be offering them left and right.
