Does this mean I can use contract lounge which air china has access to or does it not count as I am star gold with united?

Same thing with a diff flight with air china out of lon Gatwick.

Thanks
Contract lounges are generally a no unless you are booked in business. No *G benefits
*G access is for *A lounges
Update: The above was from a perspective of UA flights, as others report some carriers (Such as Air China) may be more generous.
