Qantas Sydney International Business Lounge

[SYD]

So, do we have to give it another maybe year before its finished, or maybe 18 months.?

Already reported that it should be open by December (ahead of the originally planned “early 2027” target).

Possibly hard to see, but it’s looking big. Probably bigger than many expected.


To the left of the ANA tail is the new outdoor deck. Everything to the right under the First lounge appears to be totally new much bigger space behind new glass walls. Further to the right, is the main part of the existing J lounge.

No photos, but the living wall to the entrance of the F lounge was behind hoarding this morning (not sure how long but it wasn’t there 2 mths ago). Also a lot of high tables and chairs set up in that space. No idea why?

The living wall is being refreshed - wall & plants. It will definitely be back
The high tables and bar stools are for the 1st lounge overflow in the mornings.

I was there in the morning - busy but not overflowing.

There used to be low tables and chairs - which I assumed were J lounge overflow but have never seen either in use.

Yes those low ones were roped off for the old J & I have seen them used.. These ones go beyond the escalators towards the entrance. I asked as a manager, who'd been talking to 2 others around these, got on the up escalator behind me.
