I believe the BA T4 Arrivals lounge closes at 2:00pm. Presuming QF29 that's due in @1:30pm.

You never know; you might get straight through or arrive early. Indeed, it may have changed; I can't find any opening times online (they used to be available).

Here's a post with a reference to my experience with closing: http://www.frequentflyer.com.au/community/82418-23-post.html

18th SYD T1 - being guested into FLounge - If QF enforce the 'must be travelling on the same flight' rule then JLounge
Access to the FLounge will depend on who is at reception. I was guesting someone from Flyertalk in early January and when they saw a different coloured boarding pass, it was for QF74 but was printed in SIN, they wanted to refuse entry because he was not on the same flight as me.

They printed another boarding pass and my guest was allowed into the FLounge. Both QF employees at reception that day were aware of the rule changes. Good luck.

Thx JohnK. We're both going to LAX but on different QF flights.. So hopefully they'll be a bit lenient.. The only reason I'm not on the same flight is no availablility of D class..

Ouch. Yes, it wll be QF29, I was figuring on 30 min (mainly bags) to clear customs/immigration and collect bags, thus lounge arrival around 1400... oh well. I guess I will be going to Hertz staight off then. :( I was looking forward to my first arrivals lounge experience too...

<edit>

FYI: I've just been on the phone with BA's call centre - and serfty is correct. The T4 Arrivals lounge closes at 2pm - they did suggest calling the T4 Arrivals lounge directly (on +44 2085640849) later to confirm as with the turmoil surrounding T5 and some long haul flights continuing from T4 instead of T5 (as is the case for my LHR-BOS flight), those times might be subject to change.

Ok - ICN is out and after some additional discussions around stopping off at BKK and even CGK for a few days, my travel has finally been sorted. Back to the original plan...

28Apr08 MEL FLounge......2100-2220
29Apr08 HKG Wing FL......0600-0700

I may end up spending the day in HKG on the 29th to provide remote assistance to a demo in CGK. If that happens, I will be in the Wing FLounge until late evening(BA26 or BA32 - dependent on waitlists for D).
