This is where a lounge comes in really handy.
Am I allowed in?

I'm getting fed up with their obnoxious policy on this.
My old electronic BP was actually "destroyed" by the rebooking, and the check-in counter put me on a different (1 hour later or 3 hours earlier, depending on how you look at it) flight. That's the BP I presented. 3 hours and 10 minutes before its departure time.
She made me dig through emails to find something that referenced the original flight before letting me in. This is supposed to be a relaxing experience. IRROPS are not the time when you want to throw more bureaucracy and procedure on top of things.
When the AC MLL opens in SFO, I'm probably cancelling my AMEX Plat because I'm just getting so fed up with getting hassled at the desk every time I'm entering (being based in SFO, I tend not to arrive early enough to use any lounge unless something has gone wrong, like a 4 hour delay).
