While planning for an upcoming trip to the US, I was having a look at the QP details on the QF site, when something struck me as a bit odd. Has Admirals Club access for QP members travelling on USA domestic flights been enhanced to those travelling on a QF codeshare?
Under 'Eligibility and Access' the QF website states
Yet under 'Benefits', no mention of a QF code requirement is made
Is this something that actually took place when the EK access changes came in on October 1 and I completely missed it; or have the work experience kids been up to their old tricks on the website again?
Under 'Eligibility and Access' the QF website states
Each time you travel on a Qantas or Jetstar flight number you will have access to:
When you arrive at a lounge, show your Qantas Club card along with your ticket or boarding pass. Don't forget your next onward flight must be with Qantas or Jetstar to access the lounge.
- All Qantas Club lounges when travelling within Australia
- All Qantas International Business Lounges when travelling overseas
- Emirates Business Lounge in Dubai
- American Airlines® Admirals Club lounges in London and other locations - visit www.aa.com for lounge locations
- Associated lounges in most international ports that Qantas flies to but where there is no Qantas or partner airline lounge. Our associated lounges are operated by, or on behalf of, other airlines – view the associated lounge network
Yet under 'Benefits', no mention of a QF code requirement is made
Partner Lounges
When travelling with American Airlines, as a Qantas Club member you and a guest are welcome at American Airlines Admirals Club lounges. Simply present your Qantas Club card together with your boarding pass at the lounge reception. Both you and your guest need to be travelling together further that day on a flight marketed^ and operated by the partner airline whose lounge you wish to visit.
