No MC seat is only good to travel on the plane. Upgrade to preferred seating for free drinks. I use Citi Aadvantage card or aa platinum to get into Admirals club. Often I take a guest, ask your seat mate if they have acess. The Chicago club's are nice
Is the food free in the lounge or do you have to pay extra for that ?
Nelson's answer is the most correct main cabin tickets will not get you in
Unless you have a first/business class ticket to travel overseas or you have an AA Admirals Club membership card, you won't be able to get in. However, you can always pay your way in with a daily club fee. Good luck!
Otherwise you need an American Airlines club membership.
Yes. There is an international first class lounge.
If you are a member, you have the AA Advantage Executive card, or you're military with ID.
