Can he use the CX First Class Lounge?
The underlying question here:
Is the "international segment on the same day" based on departure date, or is it based on departure AND arrival dates of the international segment?
TIA for your help.
My opinion is that access is based on the class of the longhaul intercontinental flight your friend is connecting from, so he/she would be entitled to access the HKG FC lounge.
