Will I have access to the flagship lounge in Chicago?

Website says its allowed for oneworld business passengers - https://www.aa.com/i18n/travel-info/...hip-lounge.jsp

Since Etihad is not a oneworld airline, I am not sure if we will be allowed to enter.

Have a 7 hour layover in Chicago, so open to checking out other lounges as well. Thanks!
Unfortunately no FL access since EY is not a oneworld member. You can use whatever 3rd party lounge EY has partnered with at ORD. Unfortunately all of lounges at T5 completely suck though.

With 7 hours I might even consider a day pass to the AC, it will be busy and not exactly opulent but nicer than anything at T5, especially with that much time.
