New SFO Flights

We are flying this route in October from Adelaide via Sydney as a family in economy, i will have 2 Qantas lounge passes via a credit card, can we use the AF/KL lounge as a family with these passes before our flight back to Sydney?

Unfortunately not. Qantas lounge passes are only valid at Qantas operated lounges (not even LAX which is technically a OneWorld lounge even though Qantas runs it).

i assume we would be able to use them in Sydney though? Flight from Adelaide due to arrive 10:25 flight out is 2pm.
Bummer,
 
Anyone else use Aquire and get incorrect points postings?

SYD-SFO in economy should net 2025 Aquire points, yet I got 255 (lol) and SFO to SYD in discount economy should net 1350 Aquire points, yet I got 240!

QFF points and SC's posted correctly.

Thanks for the answer even if it seems to be bad news.
Here's a review: The Air France KLM Lounge at San Francisco airport is one of the sadder lounges at SFO, and a place to avoid if at all possible...

Doesn't really compare to the LAX lounge.
This lounge is truly a disgrace. I know I'll be heading to the CX lounges directly and may sit at this aberration of a lounge for the 20 mins prior to boarding.
 
An update for those that are interested, currently sitting in the CX SFO lounge which is nice but there's very minimal F&B happening as the CX flight is now 00:50 and their own pax have barely checked in yet. I was told on entry that due to the busy flight to HKG on CX, they only let the first 10 OWE members in. So if you plan to use this lounge, check in early, be aware you can only check in after about 19:30. We made the mistake of arriving early at 18:30 and had to mill around for an hour.
The equipment changed which on the downside stuffed up the seating allocation but on the upside it has the old F cabin and myself and SWMBO are in it, despite the fact they had her in a completely different section of the aircraft. let's just say she let the airport staff know what it's like for me who lives with her and that matter was rectified after a short time. ;)
 
Unfortunately not. Qantas lounge passes are only valid at Qantas operated lounges (not even LAX which is technically a OneWorld lounge even though Qantas runs it).
If I remember correctly, I thought that the QF LAX Business lounge was a OneWorld lounge, (hence the above comment about validity of QF lounge passes) but the QF LAX First lounge was a Qantas lounge, (not including whether or not you can use QF lounge passes in either), hence the rules of entry/guesting/passes are slightly different due to being a OW lounge vs a QF lounge. Can anyone confirm my thoughts?
