New Lounge in CNS

[jetlagger]

I was in the old one once, and recall the visit as I found the staff surly, compared to BNE at that time

May have been the response to your red shirt ;-)

Perhaps they were simply immune to your charms Sam ?

You make that sound like a "Lord of the Rings" sequel or something similar!

Talk about pushing it fine for "by the end of the month"

However, this is great news overall.

I'll get to test out the access-rule knowledge of the new Lounge Angels/Dragons when I attempt arrivals access on Friday night 01-Nov. There's a flight to BNE that departs after my flight from SYD arrives.

This surprises you...

I'm just glad it's finally all a go; Have a BNE<->CNS set for late November, interested to see how it compares to the MKY Lounge which I visited quite afew times earlier this year when I was working for the Govt.

Hi Brad330 passing through your way in early Nov great to hear a AFF is at the coal face with a great team in CNS.

I'm surprised they haven't had some sort of comms to their local customer base advising the lounge opening......

The dates can move right up to the proposed day, better off doing it on the day it opens, MKY got delayed by two weeks two days before opening.

There is zero upside for VA in announcing the open date beforehand. But lots of downside if they have a big song and dance about it, and then someone breaks a window on the last day of construction!

And then we can lunge into the lounge

Re: VA lounge at CNS. Flew back from Cairns to Brisbane on Tuesday 22 October.... Asked check in about lounge and was told it will be open first week in November. Bad timing on my part as I had to wait 3hrs at Airport... But good new is I've finally reached Virgin Gold (taken over 12 months).

Well, congratulations Virgin Australia! This will be great for CNS. Can't wait to check it out on Friday night when I fly back from SYD.

Shout out to brad330: will you be there Friday night? Look forward to meeting the staff.

Noice. I like the AusBT reference to "the serentiy".......(calling all "Castle" devotees....was that original quote from the airport bordering home or the HT powerline view country residence)?
