He said yes that was true pre-COVID, however the rules have changed. I asked if he could scan the pass to see what the computer would say, but refused to do that. Oh well.

Went to the J lounge using my RAM sapphire status, where the agents didn’t believe that this was a real airline / had to call their manager to check that domestic-only itineraries could gain access.

Very curious to hear of anyone has actually had success.

But thanks to this helpful thread I believe I can now answer my own question: YES, an inbound pax on a 3 cabin flight in paid F (JFK → LAX in my case) WOULD be able to access the QF F lounge at LAX, assuming the QF F lounge is open per the wiki.
