Recently travelled with the wife and two kids (ages 2 and 4) from MEL to BNE return, all in J class on FF points, for holidays.
At the MEL QP I went through to the J class lounge and after showing our tickets was asked by the desk lady: "Are you travelling on points?". I was slightly taken aback by this question because I didn't understand its relevance but answered "yes". She didn't say anything but waved us in.
On the return flight we arrived at the BNE QP. As many of you will know, from the desk its to the left to the standard QP and to the right to the J class QP. This was a weekend and we were neatly but casually dressed. The desk lady looked at our J class tickets (I didn't bother showing my QP card) and then put out her arm to direct us to the left. I not so innocently asked, because I well knew where the J class lounge was, "isn't business class over there?". I got a cold look and a terse "yes" and we proceeded to enter the J class lounge. It was almost empty.
Is there some subtle policy to try and keep young children out of the J class QP?
