I'm flying MCI - ORD - LGA next Thursday evening, and JFK - HKG next Friday morning. This is an award ticket in F, AA domestic and CX international. Can I use the FL lounge at ORD for my two hour layover? I know that if the travel were all on one day, this would not be a problem. However, I'm over nighting in New York and not sure if this will nix FL lounge access at ORD?

Gray area. IIRC the last time I tried to access the FL (or Admiral's Club) on a domestic/international itinerary with an overnight stopover they said no. But I'd certainly give it a try; worst case is they turn you away.

Ok, thanks. Not a big deal, but I'll give it a try.

Keep in mind that the Flagship Lounge @ ORD is way, way at the far end of one of the piers. If you incoming and outgoing flights are both in other areas, it could be a loooong hike.

Before I got EXP status ORD Flagship Lounge has always been nice to me during similar type of trips. It depends on how busy the lounge is. Doesn't hurt to ask.

The lounge is at the far end of Terminal 3 so take that into consideration if you only have a short layover.

Admirals Club is much more centrally located so if needed why not use it? They will give you couple of free drink coupons.
