If I fly ICN KE:J CGK GA:Y SIN, will I have lounge access in CGK?

Likewise on the return leg, if I fly SIN GA:Y CGK KE:J ICN, will I have lounge access in SIN?

For CGK-SIN in Y no lounge access unless have Elite Plus status.
For SIN-CGK in Y no lounge access unless have Elite Plus status.
For CGK-ICN in J lounge access due to flying in business class.

I am new to Skyteam and I've got a question about lounge access hopefully someone can help me.

I recently status matched to Platinum with Delta, which seems to be an elite plus status with Skyteam. I am about to fly with CZ in Y soon, can I guest my wife into the lounge? will she also be allowed to choose a better seat as we booked on the same seat? How about other sky priority benefits?

1st question: Yes you will be able to use the member lounge and you can invite 1 guest.
2nd question: You will not be able to choose the best seat even for yourself. CZ blocks always the first couple of rows and I suppose they allow their own elite members to select them but elite plus members will need to wait until checking in at the airport to try and get it if its still available. Seating benefits ..if any that exist only extend to the member not to other passengers.

Same for Sky Priority benefits, they only benefit to the member, not to other passengers.

But very often this is not strictly enforced, especially not for check-in/boarding.

Figured I'd ask here instead of making a new thread:

If I fly two legs, YVR-TPE-NRT with YVR-TPE in PE and TPE-NRT in J, do I get lounge access at YVR? I figure reading the rules I get access in TPE on the outbound and in NRT&TPE on the inbound, but YVR on the outbound I'm not sure... since I WILL have a same-day J flight on skyteam on the itinerary, it's not just not the one departing YVR.

You will only gain lounge access before a J class flight. So TPE you should access T1 China airlines lounge from TPE-NRT. No lounge access in Vancouver. Also return flight access only in NRT no access in TPE as it all depends on your next Departure flight.

I will be flying LAX-CDG with AF in J and CDG-PRG with JOON in J, on the same PNR. Do I get ST lounge access in CDG?

tris06 Jan 7, 2019 6:45 pm

I don't know Joon but if it is a subsidery of AF then maybe yes. If not then I would say no.

You will get ST Lounge access.

Domestic Lounge access: China
 
Hi,
Anyone know if this policy has been further expanded for lounge access for Domestic only itinerary in within China?
https://www.skyteam.com/en/about/pre...-access-policy

If not - any idea if I am in J, will I get access irrelevant of status?

Cheers!

Flying VS, LHR-ATL-AVL in Y, holding SAS Gold (STE+). If I credit the flight to VS, can I still access LHR Aspire lounge and the relevant Delta lounge (same day and part of an international itinerary) by using the SAS card? OR do I need to still have the SAS FF# on my booking to do this?
Considering having SAS FF# on booking until accessing LHR lounge and then changing it back to VS for the more useful points. But this may cause an issue at ATL on the transit.

No answers forthcoming on the VS forum so hoping someone here might know the best route to take.
