IIRC, BGS is the only PP option in T2 international. My SOP is to time my airport arrival so as to make lounge access a non-issue unless there is a delay. I used to target T-70 minutes, but I've upped this to T-90 minutes ever since there was full blown security just to enter the terminal (not all PRC airports do this drill yet by the way, and procedures vary dramatically between airports). DL's checkin cutoff is T-60, and they usually (but, not always) tend to be somewhat flexible on this.
