Hi All
My family and I are flying to coughet via Singapore next month from Sydney.We are all booked on the same ticket ,so what if any benefits of me being a WP flying QFi can the rest of my clan get.
cheers

All depends on family numbers and age. QF will extend lounge access (including F lounge) to two adults and two children up to 18 years of age, with additional children at the discretion of the individual lounge manager.
I take it you're only QFi to SIN, then 3K to HKT? If so, lounge access should be OK in SYD and SIN, but not in HKT. No WP benefits on 3K as far I'm aware...
You're only allowed one adult guest into the FLounge. The two adult guests are for the intl J Lounge and domestic J Lounge and QP.
I didn't explain it very clearly. From the QF website:
Qantas Lounges welcome you when travelling together with your family. In addition to your normal guest allowance you may also bring up to two children, between ages 4 and 17, into lounges operated by Qantas. Children aged 3 years or under are not counted as guests for the purpose of determining the number of guests of the member. If you are travelling with more than two children, the Qantas lounge manager will try to accommodate them, subject to reviewing the space available in the lounge.
The FLounge only allows one guest to WP and WP1. (Children under 18 are in addition to this guest allowance)
You explained the part about children clearly.
I was correcting information about the FLounge. The FLounge only allows one guest to WP and WP1. (Children under 18 are in addition to this guest allowance)
I was trying to understate the access if anything - though clearly failing - I meant access was for 2 adults (i.e. WP + 1) + 2 kids, ignoring any access for additional adult guests - I couldn't find the Qantas table that listed guest numbers by lounge type, but did find the following info which implies only 1 adult guest if flying JQ / 3K / VF:
Platinum and Gold Frequent Flyers as well as Qantas Club members travelling with Jetstar* are welcome in any Qantas Club lounge. Simply show your boarding pass and Qantas Club card, or Platinum or Gold Qantas Frequent Flyer card, at the lounge reception. You may also invite one guest.
Ive just booked a family flight to Sing and my WP1 status allowed us all to select bulkhead seats in Y for the extra legroom. A huge benefit in my mind as I am so inured to J and F that flying long haul in Y is not my idea of a holiday.

Much the same experience as WP - pretty good seat choice for the whole family. A linked booking for my wife also meant she was given a good seat though this wasn't until OLCI.
Thanks greenfish and to all
Thats Great also do we all get to use first check in , fast track security, etc.
My apologies for some dumb questions but its my first trip OS

No dumb questions here. It's best to be prepared, especially if this is your first trip overseas and you're travelling with a young family.
Yes, you and your travelling party will check in and clear security/customs/immigration together.
Please don't hesitate to let the ground staff and cabin crew know if there's anything they can do to make your journey more comfortable and relaxing.
See you on board soon.
