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.

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.
