QF WP Benefits on Domestic AA query

[Ben174]

Have been doing a lot of flying around the US in First Class Domestic the past few weeks as a QF WP and have been using the lounges, premium check in and security etc etc.

However i have a Main Cabin ticket coming up in a couple days SFO to LAX (prior to connecting to J QF94) seperate bookings and am wondering if i can still use premium check in, security, lounges and if WP gets free snacks onboard still?

I remember reading some time ago that no more lounge access was happening or the no snack rule etc etc, but cant recall exactly..

All benefits that come with OWE are secure. You can select MCE seating for free but don't count on any free snacks.

In my experience, you will get no problem access to admirals clubs, and 2nd to board, but little else. I did once get an "Are you an Emerald?" in the main cabin and then offered a free beverage and snack. But it was once. Don't expect a welcome aboard or thanks for flying with us or "is there anything we can do" sort of experience.

I usually ask if I get a free snack (not telling them im OWE rather than AA EXP) and they give me one. I think they can't always tell the difference between OWE amd EXP on the manifest.
