I assume TG UA and SQ's own operated lounge shouldn't be an issue. But those contracted lounges, such as Plaza Premium and Hong Kong Airline Club Autus, would those actually admit a MS pax?
Also, I don't have status with star alliance.
Thanks!
Yes, any Star Alliance airline operated lounge is open to you and possibly one more. I kind of remember before that ET and MS gave lounge passes to J customers for the Hong Kong Airlines lounges. It surprised me at the time because Star has enough airline operated lounges in HKG but there you go! It may have changed to the cheaper Plaza Premium lounges but you will find out when you check in. Each of the Star lounges have their strong points and a few week points, you will find many threads on FT discussing them.
