Access to Admirals Club with Guests then Switching to Flagship Lounge
Tomorrow I'm flying MIA-LAX with my wife and I in J and two friends in Y. I believe the J tickets get the wife and I access to the MIA Flagship lounge, (3-class 773) but for the two in Y, with my Citi Executive Card I can technically guest them into the Admirals Club. My question is can I enter the Admirals Club using my Executive Card, guest the two Y passengers with me and then shortly after leave them there in the club and I go join my wife in the Flagship lounge?

That's kinda what I figured. I believe the D30 Admirals Club/Flagship Lounge share the same terminal entrance at MIA? I'll take them to the D15 Admirals Cub and then head on over to the Flagship Lounge at D30 afterwards.

Playing silly games like this is not good for the rest of the people who try to play by the rules that make the clubs livable which is less and less common these days. Why not just stand outside and invite everyone in? Come to think of it, it sounds like another problem the country at large currently has, but I digress.

Some day the AA managemen,t after browsing this forum, may simply add a line feature on their check in screen to display which club your guest are in. If it meets the rules fine, if not they may ask you nicely to comply
I would still try anyhow

Provided your two "friends" behave, this should be doable. Just be careful that they don't leave the AC to go downstairs prematurely - the agents may ask for their membership card when they come back in.
