SFO Eva Lounge Access

Looks like Eva flights out of SFO are departing from terminal A. I really wanted to use the Polaris Lounge but it is in terminal G. Is it worth going through security an extra time to use the Polaris Lounge? Or is there another lounge I can use in terminal A?

Are you on BR7? If not, you still use G. If you are flying on BR7, they give you access to the Virgin lounge, though the lounge is BEFORE security.

Ah I'm on B27 which checking again does still leave from G. Thanks for the clear up!

Does BR7 always fly out of the "A" gates?

I have an upcoming trip. Arriving on AC (G gates) and departing on BR7. Hate to have to "re-clear" security as I don't think that there is an airside access from G to A.

Thanks!

You are correct that there is no airside access from G to A.

Thanks.
Why would BR7 be an outlier to depart from the A gates instead of G like the other BR flights?

Thanks for confirming what I thought.
This is disappointing as the only lounge available in the airside A gates is the AF lounge with my Priority Pass, not to mention the inconvenience of having to go landside and re-clear security to enter A. There is no *A lounge in A. I was looking forward to check out the UA Polaris lounge in the G gates area. Sigh.
