OW Lounges in PEK
Hi
I did a search of the forum and didn't find anything.
Does anyone has any experiences with OW lounges in PEK? I'm flying out on AA 186 on Thurs and wonder where would be the best place to kill some time preflight.
Thanks!

AA uses the Air China lounge. It's okay -- dont have high expectation. You can also stop by the CX/KA lounge -- its okay too. Basically, not much to write home about.

Can I use the CX/KA lounge with a Business/First ticket, or do I need to be Plat/ExPlat?

Having been to VIP lounges in PVG, SHA, PEK, CTU, SZX, CAN and HAK, the best ones are unimpressive and the worst ones are really grim (CTU, CAN and SZX stand out as the worst). I was in the KA/CX lounge on Sunday and it was better than most, but still nothing special. I have no reason to think that the Air China lounge would be any better.
