General Lounge Usage Question
Forgive my stupid, newbie question, but I can't seem to find the answer anywhere.
I have never paid for an annual membership for the use of any airline's lounges. If I buy a membership, do I have to be flying that airline's metal in order to use the lounge? Are there different rules in this regard depending on the airline? I'd be looking at either RCC or AS Boardroom membership.
Thanks,
Bill

For the RCC at least you're entitled to use the club whenever - you just show them your card. You can actually get a gate pass if you're not flying that day to the RCC on the basis of having a meeting there.
