Could also confirm. My flight was in July and I had the same experience as what collegeidol described for the JFK-YVR segment.
Side note - due to CX moving JFK operation from T7 to T8, you could no longer access the BA lounge at T7. Instead, if you have OW status or flying J or F, you should be able to get access to the AA Flagship Lounge (or Dinning if flying F) at T8.

It is still way better than a normal Admiral Club experience IMO. I took a shower there and got some food - can't compared to CX J Lounge food at HKG but I would gladly take it from a U.S. carrier.

You get lounge access if you are in CX J or F from JFK T8, regardless of your status. I don't recon CX granted non-status Y or PEY pax access to BA lounge in the past?

Good to know re: CX lounge in HKG. Might be spending ~ten hours there. From what I have read it's better than JL at NRT, where I was for ten hours last month-- that was pretty great too.

If you arrive early in the morning (I think it applies to 889 as well) and cannot check in your hotel, try the Arrival Lounge. (J pax only, no +1).

Pier Business/First is my personal fav but it's usually far away from my gate (1-4). I would not settle for Wing. Or you could do lounge tour (I think CX has 6 in total in HKG) given the extended time you have.

If you are OWE/MPC DM, you could access Pier First.

. Yes, those lockers are nice and big. Perfect for two standard sized carry-ons.
