Does anyone know if we can return through security in terminal 3 to the Admirals Club? We have 6 hours between flights and we would really prefer to wait in the Admiral's Club rather than T5. Can anyone help us out with this question?
BTW, it wasn't our idea to use WW
Where are you originating on your flight to ORD? If you were on a qualifying international flight in a qualifying class of service or with qualifying status, you would have to be traveling onward on a
oneworld marketed and operated flight to have Admirals Club access. STL doesn't count.
If you're an Admirals Club member or have a one day pass, or wish to buy passes (one per person, $59) your T-5 WOW boarding doc should get you into T-3.
Your best bet, assuming you have Club access, is to use the Club and when it's time to check in with WOW at T-5 take the take the train to T-5 and check in.

That will not work. You can
not request a gate pass from the AA ticket counter; they are strictly not allowed to issue gate passes for Club users who do not have airside access.
