SFO Lounge - Fiji Airways Business Class?

Fiji Airways website indicates that business class passengers have access to the Air France lounge at SFO.

Does anyone know if this means the new AF lounge or the Golden Gate lounge?

That's a good question. Just ask as you're checking in bags. As FJ is a Oneworld partner carrier, surprised that you're not sent to either of the BA, CX or JL lounges.

I think the issue is that the lounges at SFO all have very limited hours, as each carrier only has one or at most two daily departures. Also, as a OW Connect member, FJ doesn't enjoy full benefits. Normally, I'd just use the Admirals Club, but lounge access isn't part of their agreement. At any rate, I'll know tomorrow night and will provide an update!

That is indeed a limiting factor for all of the foreign carriers lounges at SFO. Alliance reciprocity rules dont do you any good at times when the lounge is closed, which is a lot of the time.
