Hi all,

I will likely get SG after arriving in LHR for a 10 day holiday in October. Obviously I won't receive my card/pack or anything whilst overseas so how can I access the other OW lounges (other than QF) during my trip?

I will be flying BA to Zurich return (in Y) during the 10 days and wanted to use the BA Lounge at LHR and whatever lounge I can access in Zurich. How do I do this? Will my OW status be printed on my Boarding Pass?

Same for returning to HKG via KUL from LHR (on MH) and onward to SYD and then BNE (on QF). I can obviously use the MH/QF lounges as I will be flying J but was hoping to try out some of the other OW offerings. Is it just a case of using the status on my boarding pass?

Any recommendations for lounges to try in LHR, KUL and HKG for OW Sapphire?

Thanks a lot for tolerating my newbie questions!
 
Hi hopefulQFF,

MH depart from T4 at LHR - no alternative OW offerings there (unless UL surprise us all and join OW before the end of the year!!)

The only alternative OW Lounge at KUL Satellite Terminal (where the LHR flights arrive and MH HKG flights depart) is the CX Lounge. This is a combined F and J Lounge, small, quite crowded just prior to CX departures with very limited offerings. IMHO You're better to stay in the MH Golden Lounge.

Regards,

BD
