No. As I noted, lounge access for *A is based on the departing cabin class (and OW is different).

However, it is possible that TG staff in the F lounge might allow access anyway if connecting through the same day, but my opinion is that this is even less likely if you have an overnight and a long connection.

You can ask, of course, just set expectations low as you have no 'entitlement' AFAIK and enjoy if you get in. Others may have more recent experiences and I'll happily be corrected.

Star Alliance Airport Lounge Access

The first thing to note about Star Alliance airport lounge access policies is everything is based on your departing flight. So if you fly international first class from Bangkok to Los Angeles, and then economy from Los Angeles to Houston, you wouldn’t technically have lounge access in Los Angeles based on your ticket.
