I'm flying HKG-LHR on BA on Sunday night, flaunting my newly acquired QF Gold/oneworld Sapphire card like an excited overgrown schoolboy. Is it true that CX will allow me into The Wing one oneworld privileges even though I'm not flying CX itself?</font>
If flying on a oneworld carrier, you will be able to use the CX Business Class lounge.

Not sure if "The Wing" is some sort of special super-dooper lounge or if it is just "the" lounge - haven't flown through HKG since it moved (ah, those were the days, roller coaster rides whilst on short finals!)

I wish the airlines would standardise their lounge marketting, some of them (looks in the general direction of BA) are an absolute joke - LHR T4 has something like 9 lounges, each with different names and with different access requirements. Even the staff sometimes have trouble working out who is entitled to access, how are *we* supposed to keep up?
