From a practical matter, however, on many of these routes (e.g. JFK- LAX/SFO) these upgrades are most often done at the gate just prior to boarding, so in those cases you would not have club access.

Interesting. I used miles to upgrade to BE from a K fare on LAX-JFK, and I was granted SC access in JFK on arrival. (I made a point to use my BP only, not my Plat AmEx, just to see if this ticket was eligible - and apparently it was.)

> 2/2 in Dec 2012 on an A fare (at LAX prior to redeye, at JFK afterwards)
> 1/2 in Jun 2013 with BFUG (arrived LAX 1230am, had an AS flight at 715 ... was able to get in for a shower before the club closed at 1, but was denied at 6am because the morning shift desk clerk insisted the SC manager would not let her override the date on my BP in the Lounge Tracking System: "We can't even let Diamond Medallions in if they are delayed more than four hours.")
> 1/1 in Aug 2013 with J BP courtesy of VDB (3+ hrs on the outdoor deck at JFK on a Sun afternoon)
