QR also contracts the BA Lounge so I think it's EI + QR on Sundays, however, the QR flight is later than the EI flight.

Flew today GRU-MIA-PHL-LAS in AA Flagship J and domestic F, todays lame excuse to refuse entry was it is "An International Departures lounge only", the usual excuse here is "Capacity",however once I rubbished this nonsense and showed the person at the entrance the relevant Oneworld page he reluctantly let me in.

Food, is now around the back of the lounge, in what used to be the area, between the old F and J lounges, food was actually not too bad, some nice rice and curried chicken and Prawns with Chick Peas





Not too bad...

I was refused too when I flew on AA (Flagship J) because of non BA flight and capacity. I emailed GGL and they investigated it, but the same answer received from the PHL lounge. They should be delisted from the oneworld lounge list as they only allow BA passengers. To be honest, when I was refused, the lounge was far from busy, sparse at best, I was not impressed with the management.
