Just had a look at the QF15 timetable and the departure time changes to 22:30 from 20:30 in mid-September, so eligible QR899 passengers will have access from then (until it changes back probably around March/April).

As noted up this thread, even when the QF lounge is open they'll still turn QR and in another thread EK passengers away.
 
EK passengers have been allowed in recently.
I'm now in the QF lounge in BNE before my EK flight and heard from the lounge reception that QR passengers are being directed to the NZ lounge...
 
Another poster on here said that QR J pax were being directed to the NZ lounge, if status pax are too then that's good to know. It could be because the QF lounge closes at 8:30pm so they just direct everyone to NZ to save the shuffle?

As of 14/09/22 QF15 moves to a 22:30 departure, so if QF follow the rules then QR pax should be able to enter prior to the 22:40 departure (though I was recently advised by QR that it's going to a 22:10 departure for my flight in October).

Had a flight change to 22:10. Then another back to the original 22:40.
I really hope it changes back to the early time, as currently only have 90mins in DOH.

Yeah the flight we're both on is still saying 22:40, though QR told me when I asked what the change was that it's 22:10. I'm hoping for 22:10 as well, 1h25 mins will be cutting it fine to get to the lounge to shower/change and on to the next flight.

yeah, really wanted to check out the Al Safwa lounge.
 
Has anyone recently flown out of brisbane on Qatar and can comment on the lounge situation? Are they providing vouchers if lounge access isn’t available? Thanks!
Some friends flew Qatar Business class to London and used the Air New Zealand lounge at Brisbane Int airport.

There was a point hacks article in late July that said Qatar were using Air NZ lounges in Syd, Mel, Bris and Perth. They quoted it as coming from an airlines spokesperson.

Not in MEL, they're using the Marhaba Lounge.
