I have always boarded CX873 in Concourse A. The BA lounge is also in Concourse A. For disembarking, I don't think that is always the case. I remembered I entered the custom area in both sides before - at least I thought I came out the other door at least twice. The airport should be able to make arrangements and move the plane around if needed.
I hope CX can park at Gate A6. Boarding is much more convenient. However, with the BA flight departing about three hours later during summer, I don't know if that can be arranged.
