Hi all,

I got Star Alliance Gold status with Air Canada and will be flying with Asiana soon from Sydney to Seoul.

The Star Alliance Gold status mentions Priority Check in and Lounge access.

Asiana doesn't have dedicated Sydney lounge but looks like I can access partner lounges like Kris Flyer and Air NZ.

Do I just show the lounge staff my boarding pass and Air Canada Gold status to get in?

Or the Air Asiana check in staff will give me lounge pass?

You can add your Aeroplan FF number to your boarding pass at check in and it'll state lounge access or show them the app with *A gold status either way will work! :)
 
If you are Star Alliance Gold and flying a Star Alliance Airline, you have lounge access in any Star Alliance lounge.

Star Alliance Gold Customers travelling in any class of travel​

As a Star Alliance Gold customer travelling in any class on a Star Alliance member airline operated flight, you have access to any member airline lounge at the airport where your flight departs, if the following conditions are met:
  • You present your boarding pass of a Star Alliance member airline operated flight which departs at the same day as your visit or latest by 05:00 AM the next morning.
  • If your boarding pass does not carry the Star Alliance Gold indicator, you will need to also show your valid Star Alliance Gold card.
  • The lounge displays the Star Alliance Gold logo at the entrance.
You are entitled to bring one guest travelling on any Star Alliance flight departing from the same airport on the same day. As of May 3, 2021, the guest must be traveling on the same flight.
If you are a United MileagePlus Star Alliance Gold customer, you may only access the United Clubs within the U.S. when departing from that airport on an international Star Alliance flight, not when departing on a domestic flight with United.
