Qantas Sydney International Business Lounge

It has been used as an F overflow area with a few tables, on occasion.
Internally? The J lounge overflow is still there past the green wall.

We were referring to the exterior walk way area. Wasted space.

I thought you meant take over the F entrance area between Nestor and the escalators to the main F lounge. Certainly what I got from @moa999 with a combined entrance and F going upstairs.

If you're referring to the external walkway outside of both of the lounges - I'm not sure that's much real estate that is going to be useful. IIRC it's like 2m wide and nothing above it - could potentially move the reception desk out there but that's probably it.
 
Yes, there was the suggestion to have one entrance. F go upstairs and J stay downstairs.
You could then expand the J lounge over the former balcony walkway, as I don't think it lead to anything other than the J lounge.
It was this comment about using the balcony (the walkway to the J lounge). Yes, not super wide - at least 3m - but long, so could be usable. The space above that could be used by the F lounge! 😁

My point was the footprint of the F lounge on the lower level almost certainly needs to stay with the F lounge.

As for the rest that’s a lot of structural change for not much juice. I’m sure there’s better solutions. Might even pay to build a second small lounge on the other side of the terminal (near Amex etc) to serve departures from those far away gates.
