New SilverKris Lounge Melbourne

Thats a bggr - just re-booked an end Oct trip out of Syd rather than from Mel, and only because SQ make it so hard to add domestic legs 'and' attempt to buy a points/cash upgrade to F (thats another topic). Its a nice space tho, remember it from the days of flying EY back in '17, probly not too long after it opened. 1791330595962.jpeg

I’m sure you won’t regret it, Sydney’s SKL (whether F or J) is really nice and tranquil, great food, barista coffee and has runway views too, get in early for one of the armchairs with window views.

I also find Brisbanes SKL (only has a J section) quite underrated, shares many similarities with Sydney’s SKL J, although the runway views are replaced with terminal-runway views. But still, the natural light makes a world of difference from Melbournes dungeon feel.

Oh yes the view over the iron roof in SYD SKL F is to die for - you can see it here in a video I posted of SYD SKL F on 10/06/2025 👍
