JFK T1 lounge access?
Looking to fly out of JFK Terminal 1 toward the end of the year on Eva elite class. That class has no lounge access (Eva uses JAL's lounge). T1 also has AF, Alitalia & Korean Air lounges (Lufthansa closes before my midnite flight).
I researched DL's 30 day passes but am not confident they would get access. Priority Club supposedly accesses the Korean lounge. I am not sure either would grant access to a guest.
Is there anything I am overlooking?

None of the day passes allows free add-on guests from what I know.

The DL passes only work for DL SC lounges, at JFK in T2-3; I'm not sure about the land side Oasis in T4.
For the record, AmEx Plat gives access to US lounges when flying any carrier, DL lounges when flying DL metal, and AA lounges when flying AA. codeshares don't count.

Yes, sorry I was not clear. OP, basically the Amex Platinum would not help on T1 at all (it does not have any of the plat member lounges). Priority pass would be your cheapest bet (if you have one).
