I booked a HKG-SYD J class flight via qantas.com but it's operated by Cathay (CX 101). In hong kong, which lounge do I get access to? And also, do I get to bring a guest?
Qantas wouldn't normally 'sell' that route on CX. Was it a reward booking? You would have access to the CX lounges unless you are OneWorld Sapphire (ie Qantas Gold).
'What flight number is on the booking? QF or CX? That would be the deciding factor, unless of course you're OWS or above in which case any One World J Lounge can be used.
'
Does not matter what status or flight number to a certain extent, J pax on oneworld marketed and operated flights can access any One World J lounge. No guest access is permitted.
Looked at the food options and someone came over and asked what we wanted and offered to bring over a fruit plate and also made us sandwiches.
Markis, has this changed recently? There was a thread sometime last year stating that if you did not have sufficient status on a J/F ticket, you would have to use the lounge of the airline you were flying. ( http://www.australianfrequentflyer....clarification-oneword-based-lounge-34807.html )
Now it seems that the reference to that has been removed totally. ( Lounge access - oneworld )

We there around noon or just after.What time were you there? I find the service levels differ greatly depending on the time.
One world airlines have always welcomed other alliance members J pax regardless of status. The wording changes didnt stick apparently , and I am not aware of anyone who has been refused admittance.

Does this mean that when I'm flying QF from JNB in J, I can access the BA lounge rather than the terrible one that Qantas shares?One world airlines have always welcomed other alliance members J pax regardless of status.

Was in the QF Business Lounge in HKG recently and I still think it is a good lounge.
The lounge was quiet and was able to use (real) desktops instead of the pretend ones available in the Cabin.
And when in SIN I would stay away from the Qantas lounge(s) and use the Skyview instead for the same reasons.
Why would you be worried?that is good news! Thanks for the heads-up! I was worried I'd be stuck in the QF F lounge next time I was leaving HKG!!
Why would you be worried?
A business class passenger only has access to business class lounges but a Oneworld Emerald has access to any First Class lounge even if travelling economy.
Yes, the BA one is the only one that is not third party lounge, but note it would only allow access on the SYD flight:
Galleries First and Galleries Club Lounge

I did not realise and was slightly confused where you referred to a post re busness class passengers and lounge access. So are you travelling business or first class?I can only get access based on class of service (OWE has expired).
