TIA.
The Admiral's Club is in T2, JAL departs from the A gates in the international terminal. Kind of opposite ends of the airport. SFO claims that only T1 is connected airside to the A gates of the international terminal. I recall walking airside from 2 to 1 for an AA flight departing from Delta land, but I don't know if that is still possible. Probably a good 20 minute walk depending on specific gate if terminals 1 and 2 are still connected.
No access to the Air France lounge. QR may use it as their contract lounge, but that does not mean anything for a JAL passenger. But you can seemingly buy a walk up pass for 59 USD, if the lounge is open at the JAL flight hours.
