We are looking at booking a rewards flight Melb-Amsterdam via hong kong.
It looks like the second leg has a Cathay ticket code (CX271) and I can only assume this won't change to a Qantas ticket code once we book it.
However given this is booked through qantas, is a qantas lounge...
Thanks to a few schedule changes I’ve now got a 7.5 hour layover in SYD tomorrow (D-I), from around 10am until 5.30pm (heading to the US).
I’m torn as to what I’ll do. I know I can spend the entire time in the lounge, but I’m not sure I should. I’m debating about heading into the city for a...
At the 2024 lounge crawl in HKG there was discussion about where to next. Slightly flippantly I suggested LHR or LAX. After a quick straw poll after the event, there seemed to be enough interest for LHR.
Due to the time and distance getting there, I thought it prudent to start a thread really...
After a bit of discussion to and fro in the 2024 HGK lounge crawl thread, we are off to NRT in 2025.
The following lounges are available:
CX
EK (must be flying QF in J or QF SG or WP)
JL J (x2)
JL F
Aspire Lounge (as at May 2024 available to QF pax if flying J or hold OWS or E status)
If you...
I’m on ANA in business class on a flight to Europe out of Haneda on a Virgin Australia issued award ticket. Will I have access to the ANA lounge?
Also , will being Star Alliance Gold on Turkish Airlines help gain access if a VA award on ANA biz doesn't let you into the lounge?
Hi all, just want to double check these following plans:
Flying from MEL to CHC
I am Platinum
Wife, adult daughter (19), and teenage son (14) all Bronze
Qantas international lounge rule for Platinum: one accompanying adult and up to two children (4-17 years)
Plan A: Go to First Lounge and ask...
I have a J class flight on CX coming up, from Melbourne to Hongkong and then onto Madrid. We arrive in HK around 7AM and would depart around 10PM.
Is it practically feasible to try to use the lounge on arrival to have a shower and breakfast before heading out to HK city and then later come back...
The heading actually spells it out.
We have a friend travelling with us NAN-MEL and then she is then continuing on MEL-HBA. It's all on an FJ booking. We get off in MEL and I have organised her a lounge pass for her MEL-HBA leg but cannot see how to attach it to her booking.
Her QF FF...
Hi,
I can't find a conclusive answer online but I'm assuming the answer is I don't have access but I wanted to clarify.
Has anyone flown the Virgin Australia Tokyo route?
I'm flying Tokyo Haneda --> Cairns --> Brisbane in late January this year.
The ticket was booked through the...
Doing some reading across forums it appears if you have qantas club membership but use Qantas points to book a partner aware eg FJ, that you don't have Qantas lounge access on departure. But a paid FJ flight ticketed by Qantas you do get a QF ticket number and have QF lounge access.
I've read...
I saw a tweet wondering if this person was eligible for lounge access departing NZ. They have no QF/one world status, a PE booking all the way from NZ - Oz - US. There was no answer to that thread.
But it appears a PE booking departing NZ nets you a business class seat on the 737 across the...
Hey guys - what's the best way to get in touch with the lounge in Brisbane - left laptop there :( and can't find a number anywhere to call them.
Any help be much appreciated.
I'm travelling BNE-AKL in J. Can I guest a person travelling in Y (not a QF FF) into the QF International lounge at BNE. I think it is ok but just want a second opinion.
TIA
Hi All,
I have Priority Pass membership and will be flying Virgin economy from BNE domestic terminal. When checking Priority Pass lounges, there are only 3 Eats options available (Graze , The Common and Mezze Za Za) and they are located on “Airside Qantas satelite”. I have looked at the...
