The UC access info couldn't be more vague as it's now written. It states for *G, access is available to UC club locations at the departure airport of an international itinerary. So what does "international itinerary" mean? One might reasonably guess that means more than just the UC at the airport where the international flight departs from but why do we have to guess?
For *A Gold (non UA), the wording is distinctly different and much clearer. You can access the UC at the departure airport of your *A flight. In other words, if a *A Gold member, via Miles and More, can access the ORD UC if he or she is flying on AC, UA, LH, etc. from ORD to YYZ, EWR, or MUC, just to name three out of hundreds.
