Emirates Lounges - casual access options/tips?

[TahoeSkier]

Hi all

My sister is flying EK a little later in the year, and her itinerary will include MEL / DXB / SIN.

What if any options are available for casual lounge access, be it paid passes, or perhaps a partner program/membership of some sort that includes EK lounges as a benefit?

Any advice welcome!

Thanks.

Is she a member of the Qantas Club? If so, she'll get access to the EK lounges.

I don't think there is any way of getting EK lounge access via casual passes or paid access.
There are paid lounges in DXB and SIN. Nothing in MEL AFAIK

QC membership only grants EK access on QF flight numbers

The Emirates Citi World Mastercard comes with two annual Emirates lounge passes for use in Australia, as well as a complimentary chauffer-drive to the airport once per year when flying Emirates from Australia. The card's annual fee is $298 ($149 in the first year). However, I note in the card's T&Cs that you need to have booked the flights with that credit card to be eligible.

Nice tip! Many thanks.

Possibly not worth it for one lounge visit though - seems it wouldn't help her in DXB or SIN
