I think not, but pretty sure you could just go the T2 fast track security and not be challenged. This is assuming the 'fast track' will be any faster than the normal queue, more than a few times the normal queue has almost certainly been quicker or at least as quick.

Just to feedback, BAEC Gold did work on Fast Track in security, I could get into the EI lounge but not a guest, and Plaza Premium has a much better food offering than EI....thanks to all who contributed their intel.

Out of curiosity did you ask permission at fast track and get denied or get stopped when you scanned your boarding pass?

I walked into fast track security and showed my ticket and BAEC card to the guy on the barrier who accepted it, scanned the ticket, asked me to look into the machine (Ireland aka domestic flight) and waved me on

Flying DUS-DUB-YYZ in J today. The lounge in DUS is obviously no longer the Air Berlin Lounge. You can use the Open Sky Lounge with your Y ticket plus the onward J Ticket.
Lounge is fine, slightly better service and refreshments when compared to the DUS LH Biz or SEN Lounges.

I do agree though, the EI lounge is quite poor for a home lounge.

I mean, I know EI is somewhat of a half way house carrier between LCC and full service so I guess the lounges fall in there too but the fact that their DUB lounge is not any better than (and often worse) than your run of the mill paid access lounge is disappointing.

SFO is such an awful, expensive airport though. Even a crappy lounge would be a a better and less expensive way to whittle away the time before the flight. I typically fly into LAX and leave by SFO, so I guess I'll just have to try and switch it around. Is the Virgin lounge in LAX any better?

Jfk lounge hours or operration
Very confusing information on when this lounge is open. Some say 1245 but today Sunday its not open at 130 and the Jet Blue lady suggested it might open at 3 pm. Why bother having a lovely lounge and open for 2 hours?

EI has suspended the DUB-EWR route call whoever sold the ticket and seek a direct DUB-ORD routing if travelling between now and May 31st
In theory you are entitled to the United Club lounge at Newark you will need both the EI and UA boarding cards to be admitted
