United club: same day arrival and no departure - can I still use
Upvote:2
While @Doc is correct, the cheapest paid lounge at ORD I am aware of is not the Delta one but the AF/KLM via Lounge pass. This is ~30USD (thanks Brexit for the low USD/GBP exchange rate, otherwise it's 35 USD).
Since this is in Terminal 5, there is no airside transfer, you need to take the shuttle and re-clear security! You need to buy a refundable ticket departing from T5, call the airline to uncheck yourself and refund it after clearing security. What a PITA!
Also, there is the insane trick where you buy a refundable first class ticket less than 24 hours before departure, go into the lounge and then get the ticket refunded... Here's a blog post doing this, the poster held a ticket for 30 minutes... I would not hesitate to pull this trick with United to gain access to the United Global First lounge in this situation. Tit for tat.

There's some good news and some bad news...
The Good news is that your inbound flight is considered a "same day" flight, so you would be able to enter the United Club based on that flight.
The Bad news is that the United Clubs in Chicago Terminal 1 are currently not accepting one-time passes due to one or more of the clubs being closed for construction. This is not expected to change until December 2016. There is a smaller lounge in Terminal 2 (which can be accessed from T1), but it has also been restricting one-time passes.
So presuming you're travelling before December, you will likely NOT be able to access any of the United Clubs using your one-time pass. You can try the one in Terminal 2 and you may be allowed in, but expect it to be very crowded - there is construction going on in multiple of the lounges which is the reason for the "no one-day passes" rule, but even with that the lounges are still far more crowded than normal.
There are a number of other lounges at Chicago O'Hare, but the only other one that would be accessible for you would be the Delta lounge in terminal 2, at a cost of $59.
