Background to this thread
We have noticed an increase in the posting of questions regarding what Airport Lounges are available at specific airports when travelling on specific airlines. While one can be assured of access at the airline lounge when travelling on that airline (provided you have Lounge membership), thing start to get complex when travelling on a codeshare or partner airline.

Posting Guidelines
Please post your questions about Lounge access in this thread. Be sure to include the airline you are travelling on, the airport (and terminal, if known), and any Airline Status or Airport Lounge membership programs you have.

When answering questions, please include the original question. This will assist in readability and management of the thread.

(Special thanks to Princess Fiona for suggesting this new thread.)

Yes thank you for that. We had already found that link that but as you said it doesn’t say much.

I think there may be 2 BA lounges at JNB - one in Terminal A and one in Terminal B. Does anyone know if this is correct? And which is better? And whether there is any way to transfer between JNB Terminal A and B airside after we check in? The whole thing is turning into a bit of a palaver - we arrive on Airlink to Terminal A, have to do immigration, collect bags and do customs then transfer to Terminal B to check in for QF 64. It certainly isn't a very streamlined set of arrangements.

Qantas Johannesburg Lounge
Paging @Mattg please - you seem to have recent experience in JNB, so from reading your post, it looks like you'd recommend using the Aspire lounge before QF64? I take it that is in Terminal B? But the Terminal B BA lounge is also acceptable?

Sorry, to have so many dumb questions. I really thought I had a handle on all this, but the more I look into it, the more I realise that a lot of details that I need are missing from the various web pages I've managed to find. Mr Seat 0A even called QF to ask if there were showers in the lounge and the person on the other end did not know what lounge would be used, and thus no comment on showers.

Edit: typos
