Possible to access LAX TBIT OW lounge flying AA?
I'm flying lax-lhr, and noticed the new one world lounge at TBIT is open. Is it possible to go there to use the lounge and taking a bus back to T4? Will security at TBIT even let me in?

It is not possible to take the bus. Technically it is possible if you want to reclear security; all LAX checkpoints will now allow all ticketed people into any terminal (new rule though; might not be well known).
It will be easily possible in early 2016 when the terminals are merged by a within-security corridor.
That said the new lounge, while nice, is only 40% open and people are being denied entry (but given a $50 voucher instead). You risk not even being admitted.

Food about the same, maybe slightly better in OW J. Alcohol better in OW J. Showers about the same. The key differentiator for me is the crowdedness. The FL lounge is just not packed to the gills like the OW J lounge can be at certain times of the night.

But... what can you buy with the voucher?
