Unfortunately, I have a 4 plus hour layover in Athens. I believe that technically I'm not allowed access to any OW lounges due to the fact that my onward flight is not on a OW carrier. Is that right? If so, what are the chances they might make an exception (considering the previous 2 legs and Emerald status) and allow me in? Any and all help appreciated.
no chance whatsoever--i've been in the same situation. but that doesn't mean you shouldn't try nonetheless!
