BNE Intl J lounge - pre security access only Apr - Sep

As a side note what ever is going on is impacting arrivals, now you go left out of the duty free and around past a temporary wall then back the other side to what you'd previously come into the immigration area.

I didn't need it but for the first time in ages was handed an express pass card for arrivals, very handy as Brisbane still uses them just no one around this evening.
 
Ummm, so how does this one work, if its prior to int sec processing.
So, off to the temp lounge at BNE int, prior to int sec processing and immi, then go through both?
My trip through BNE might not be till later 2027.
Just curious how it will work.
Have been to the "former" QFi BNE lounge, was prior to covid.
Yes, prior to security and immigration.
If timing is correct, escalators and 'normal' access should be back in September 2026.

I wonder if Cathay Pacific will use the Qantas landside lounge or organize with another lounge.
I have a flight out at 12:05am in a weeks time so lounge probably isn't that important.
