YUL International MLL accepting domestic flyers.
New Policy: J, 50K or better departing on a domestic itinerary from Gate 51 or higher may use the International MLL.
A welcome, if belated, improvement.

Probably not too big of a deal for them either - I have rarely been on a domestic flight that departed from a gate higher than A50. I've had the occasional Rapidair or YVR trip that left from A51, but those have been very infrequent - usually on a weekend, mid day-ish - presumably when there are fewer business travelers.

IIRC the flight arrived at A50, but the metal was going to continue to an international destination the following morning. The next flight to YVR was originally supposed to depart from A51, but was changed to A11 - which seems to be the regular departure gate for the A330 flights to YVR these days.

I've definitely had a few that were closer to international than domestic.
For the past year or so, every time I've gone in, they've said something like "This is an international lounge, but you're Super Elite, so come on in."

Thanks for trying and letting us know... and taking one for the team with your walk of shame.
