I just flew IAD-FCO/FCO-IAD on a Z fare and there was no "invitation" (even as a *G) to any of the lounges (unlike LH). Be aware that check-in and securuty took me 2 hours and I arrived at the gate as boarding commenced. I have never known FCO to be anything other than a zoo -- even when on TW and they had a whole section apart.
