So
MANCHESTER let us know if you finally try the Premium and what happens.
I read somewhere else that I couldn’t use CX Lounge in BKK with my OW Y ticket and Sapphire status (apparently they were banning entrance at front desk) and tried several times this year and bye-bye Miracle Lounge because never had an issue being granted access with no questioning or arguing.
In answer to my own question and as others have commented … when I checked in I was told I could use either the Gulf air or Qatar premium lounge. Used Qatar and was very happy … great lounge !
