Arrival Access J Lounge SYD International?

[Taezar]

Hi y'all
I had a search here and a read of the T&C at QF and I can't definitively find an answer to the above question?
I will potentially be flying in to SYD and flying out of SYD the same afternoon. I will be flying in J (INTL) but out whY (INTL).
Ideally I would like to shower, kick back and nap in the J Lounge before going to the standard Club.
Is this allowed?
Thanks in advance to all your knowledge.

But the 'standard' Qantas Club in SYD INTL is the J lounge.

Shows what I know then.
So a standard J Fare gets the "Business" Lounge and a Y Gold / QP card holder get the "Business" Lounge?
Makes like much less complicated for this easily confused panda.

Yep, that's how it rolls in SYD International. QP = J lounge, J ticket = J lounge.

Unless Taezar is a QP member (or SG/WP) then I don't think (by the rules) Business lounge access would be available before the "whY (INTL)" flight. Being inbound in Business does not necessarily help.

Gold and QP member.

In which case, as already posted, you can enter the Qantas international Business lounge before your outbound Qantas flight either as as an SG and a QP!

Needed to make that clear for anyone following this thread up.

Or depending on connection times you could always hop over to T3, check out the J Lounge courtesy of your inbound intl J boarding pass and catch the train back to T1 and the int QP. Major effort and I probably wouldn't bother

Looks like I have an 8 hour layover. Not sure I can do that. Lounge or no lounge

Now I know what your avatar is, I am a bit slow on the uptake

How did your on arrival access go?

 

[Taezar]

J'ed in SYD after arriving in J, before flying to Mel in whY. In Mel I went to first lounge as I had a free pass. How can it not be a panda?
