thanks
I would think about loading the booking with the *G account info to check-in myself and/or luggage; and then after using the lounge and/or getting past security, I would go into the booking and change the FF program info. There are some risks if doing a FFP info change of this sort, but the only one that has sometimes hit me as a bit of a nuisance has been that the flight’s mileage credit doesn’t land in the program I wanted it to land in and that it instead lands in the other FFP.
