The AA lounge is a good hike from DL's terminal but is likely your only option, assuming they don't check your onward flight (they never have with me)
I guess there's no choice of going LAX-SLC on AA to simplify things?
First may I say many thanks for the kind response. There is an AA flight that has reasonable timing, but more expensive. It also poses a risk of delay into SLC with potential impact to the recheck scenario and also includes the dreaded CJ700 with limited bin space further delaying the SLC dance (I'm traveling with a carry on needing overhead). My last experience with QF F lounge was interesting in that the agent did a very thorough check of my status before allowing me in, confirming my status and also acknoledging that I was a JL F passenger thus granted access anyway; but that was a departure, not arrival...
