Qatar Airways Lounge in Singapore T1

So is the QR lounge in SIN worth a visit?

I'm presuming that I can enter on a QF F boarding pass, or does it require particular OW status? (In which case, Silver/ Ruby may not cut it)

At least worth a look with your F boarding pass

On the contrary - OW status will *not* get you in. It's ticket class only.

Yes and Yes @bussyboy

It’s a class of service lounge so must be travelling in J or F, status makes no difference.
And Yes I think it is on par with the QF F lounge and in some instances even better IMO

Unquestionably better IMO. Quieter, more comfortable and more personalised service (unless you are P1 or CL, I guess)

Definitely worth a visit. Different food options, and a different ambience. As others have stated, it's not about status and only relates to class of travel (I've read somewhere that it must be a cash fare for class of travel too, rather than an award/upgrade, but I haven't confirmed that myself).

Depending on my itinerary I often go there after the close of the F lounge. It's generally a quieter space than the Qantas lounge too, which can get very busy during peak period.

Not true at all. I’ve taken numerous J award flights out of SIN and used the QR lounge

Good to know.

On some QR/AY lite fares or upgrades you don't get access but this doesn't apply to other OW carriers.

I was actually disappointed with QR lounge 2 weeks ago. Used to be through a bit and their coughtail list is greatly reduced as is their food offering. It’s still worth a visit if you enjoy western dining but does feel there’s been some cost cutting.

I used to advocate for people to make a trip down if they have time but now I’m less convinced.

I’d say QF do showers better, their food and wine is quite good but if you really need a quiet place before a QF departure then QR is good as it does stay quiet around those 6-8pm hours.
