The missus & I have just booked some seats on emirates f from lax to sin with a layover in dxb.

A lot of Emirates flights leave around 3am their time, and I was wondering what the maximum arrival time is to access the lounge? (I know some of the lounges here in AU limit how early you can access them).
I guess we were trying to figure out if it was worth stumping up another night's accomodation, or if we could access the lounge at say 10pm the night prior to departure? (5 hours prior to departure)
:)

The lounges are open 24H and you can access them whenever you like providing you have an onward boading pass.
 
Yep, I had a 3am flight once and left my hotel about 7pm, was at the F lounge by about 8pm and had no problems with check-in or lounge entry. Even though lots of flights leave at that time, I've never felt the lounge to be busy (which would be the only reason to turn you away).
 
I cant ever imagine the F lounge to look even remotely busy. Its huge and each gate has its own dedicated lounge then there are the dining areas.
