The QF lounge at BNE closed at around 8.15 pm last night (as the last QF international departure left at 8.30). I was also fairly sure that we should be able to use the QF lounge but the receptionist was having none of it. Interestingly earlier in my trip I was refused access to the QF domestic...

No it was the international business lounge.

Not in BNE. Flying EK F and Skywards Gold. Refused access to the QF lounge as ‘only for EK Plat’. No seats left in Plaza Premium so went and sat by the gate for an hour - quieter and more comfortable.

I thought that I understood the eligibility based on FF status although the Qantas website unhelpfully doesn't specify which lounges different levels of OW of EK FF schemes can access which lounges. I wonder if the page was meant to have more functionality than it has - possibly a link to...

Just received a reply after messaging QF (6 hours ago): 'Thanks for getting in touch. Only Qantas business class passengers, Qantas Club, Gold and Platinum Frequent Flyers currently have access into Brisbane Domestic Business Lounge: https://bit.ly/38uq4Mn.' Pretty sure that is wrong as I'm...

Thanks. After coming through from London all I am after is somewhere reasonably comfortable to sit, a shower and coffee. I will ask at the lounge entrance but won't be pushing for anything.

Apologies if this has been covered but I can't find any recent answers when I search. I arrive in BNE on EK F from Dubai. A few hors later I have a domestic flight in QF Y booked separately and linked to my BA FF number I am EK Gold and BA Silver (OW Sapphire). Am I allowed to access the...

I flew CHC-SYD last night in F and was the only pax. The snack basket was provided. I thought the food was much on a par with previous trips on this flight both in quality and quantity. Wines were good (although some confusion when I was given the DXB-JFK list which did have the DP rose!)

Well worth trying the CX F lounge as you will be in T3....

It was up and running (and quiet) at 13.10 when I arrived at the airport today.

I don't think there is any issue. If it is suggested that there is a poblem then there are plenty of houses and businesses very close by that could be your 'destination'.

Answering my own question I have contacted BA and they have replied that the desks open 3 hours before departure.

Apologies if this has been covered but I haven't found the answer after some searching. I'm on QF2 from London tonight but with an EK flight number. I can see my flight in the QF App but there is no link to PressReader (the icon is showing for some QF domestic flights on a separate booking next...

Aplogies for bumping an old thread but can anybody confirm when the BA desks open at SYD? I have searched and seen earlier threads that suggest it was around 4 hours before departure but can anyone confirm if this is still the case? Thanks.

I flew VA domestically toward the end of November. Sitting in an aisle seat in Y and the FA managed to knock a full cup of black coffee that she had just served into my lap. A fairly unpleasant episode but after throwing all the cold water we could find on to the affected area no significant...
