BNE - VLI Lounge Access - Gold

[flying_duck]

Hi All,

Considering how often this keeps changing, I've been looking into lounge options for BNE - VLI with my friend.

VA Website says Plaza Premium. The Priority Pass website that I'm on says Plaza Premium lounge charges for alcoholic drinks. Is this so?

If so, what options do I have, if any? I hold Amex Platinum Velocity (personal) card, Priority Pass membership and could upgrade to business if it made a difference.

Or could use domestic lounge and take the train/taxi to Intl... Not sure if they let you do that. The entire point of this trip is to enjoy ourselves and drink as for once we wont have work requirements to be sober.

Any help greatly appreciated.

Thanks

I believe that if you use PP to enter the lounge you will be charged $19 to select alcoholic beverages. If you have VA SG or higher status though you have access to the lounge without further cost.

Thank you - that helps a lot. Was going to say pay per drink is a bit low of VA on an international flight...

Given the morning departure, the VA domestic lounge may not be serving alcohol at the time of the day anyway...

You make a solid point.
