American Airlines International First Class Lounge

Good choice

This lounge is a first class lounge, not a Flagship Lounge. That means it's not accessible to business class passengers. But if you're flying first class, you should definitely visit the nearby Cathay Pacific First Class lounge instead. So you really don't have any circumstances where you should go here.

Pro tips

  • Showers are in the adjoining Admirals Club

    The First Class lounge has no showers of its own. Ask at the shared reception for the showers in the adjoining Admirals Club; there is no direct passage between the lounges, so return through reception afterward.
