BA
#66 has a scheduled departure time of 6:40 p.m. My AA flight departing PHL started boarding at 3:49 p.m., with a scheduled departure time of 4:24 p.m. I was told I could not access the lounge not because it was at capacity or because of stated concerns it would become full, but because I supposedly was not allowed to access the lounge “as an arrivals lounge” in between my international-to-domestic connection.
