QC Kudos

Well what a lovely lady at the desk to the MEL Intl. QC.

Turned up, told her I was meant to be travelling with my Platinum father but he had to leave early at short notice. Not many people there so she let me in. 5hrs of waiting are much better spent in the QC

Glad you were able to enjoy it ...

As far as Kudos goes, your experience is more the exception than the rule these days; 10 years ago admission policies were fare more liberal

In 1994, I was simply a QP member. I arranged for my father to meet me from my flight MEL-SYD and just to present himself and advise he was meeting me. Back in those days QP members were able to access the lounges on arrival.

They invited him in, but he declined. When I arrived he was there sitting at the entrance- we went inside, found some seats and I went to get some beverages. On my return he asked how much the drinks had cost. He was absolutely shocked when I told him they were "complimentary" - it was something outside his 80 year experience.
