Star Lounge Access Tool Inacurrate
There is a "lounge access tool" on Star website, which is supposed to indicate if on gets access to a lounge in a given airport, based on status and class travelled. But the answer it gives is inaccurate for UIO (what about other airports?). It says Avianca business travellers will not get access to any lounge. It also says *Gold passenger travelling on Avianca will not get access to any lounge. Both will actually get access to Sala VIP managed by UIO airport.
Is it because it is a contract lounge that the information is inaccurate? Contract lounges abound around the world...

The lounge finder is known to be inaccurate in various respects. It's a helpful tool but not a definitive authority.
