I'm Oneworld Emerald travelling on Finnair in J. The lounge dragons told me the rule changed today, but the website has not been updated. I find this incredible!

Is this just specific to Bangkok, or will all Cathay lounges now only admit Cathay passengers? Does this not fly in the face of their Oneworld obligations? Did anyone know this change was coming?

EDIT: I just spoke with the Cathay agent at the transfer desk and she "thinks" this new rule only applies to the Bangkok lounge. As the Qatar and JAL lounges are not open until later I'm forced to slum it in the Miracle "First" lounge with the Priority Pass crowd.
