USA lounge access
Hello, I consider myself pretty well versed with lounge access rules for the most part. But this one had me stumped and I can’t find an answer anywhere, so over to your collective wisdom!
A family member is flying LHR-JFK in Club world with a same booking connection to MIA on AA in Y. My question is can they access the AA/Oneworld lounge in JFK based on their arrival ticket being business? I know domestic US lounge access rules can be a bit restrictive so I’d be interested to hear!
thanks!

- Connecting between oneworld marketed and operated flights:
- First and Business Class customers connecting on the same day of travel, or before 6am the following day, can access the lounge when travelling between an international long haul (a oneworld international long haul flight is defined as an international flight marketed and operated by any oneworld carrier with a scheduled flight time longer than 5 hours) and an international short haul or domestic flight (and vice-versa).
- Lounge access will be determined on the international long haul ticketed flight (either First of Business Class) regardless of the ticketed class of travel on the international short haul or domestic flight.
- You must be prepared to show your boarding pass or itinerary showing travel in First or Business class on the international long haul flight, in order to access the lounge before your international short haul or domestic flight.
