Clearly not even trying to hide the fact there is a secret list and its CL only pax. I guess they figured the "capacity" excuse got too thin.I said "but OW!", she said "chairmans club only".

I should add she showed me the list. It had maybe 6 or 7 numbers on it. Seemed like a lot of chairmen to me - I thought that was supposed to be pretty exclusive.
May have just been shorthand / convenient way to say 'you can't come in'.
I would suspect mainly the latter.So is this a case of CX not wanting to let people in due to "overcrowding", or more likely a case of QF not wanting to pay CX for normal non CL people to enter what they know is a better lounge?
Master FM arrived this morning - he says he has been in nicer canteens than the KLM lounge.The excuse given to me was the lounge is full.
The KLM lounge looks like a canteen
The lounge situation in SFO and my experience of it last year means that QF will no longer be an option for that destination, especially when departing from it.
I've gone back to flying via LAX.
I tried the SFO route last year. While I did manage to get into the CX lounge (which was quite lovely), the aircraft and service in both directions in revenue J was terrible.
