QF Lounge Access at BKK for Domestic Flight

[Homer]

Tomorrow we are flying TG domestically from Bangkok to Chiang Mai. We are all WPs so would normally head to the nearest, best OneWorld lounge, however does anyone know whether we will physically be anywhere near a QF or other lounge, and whether we will be allowed in, when taking a domestic TG flight?

You will not be permitted into non-Qantas OneWorld lounges as you are not departing on a OneWorld flight.

You would have access to the Qantas Business Class lounge if you can get to the door. I do not know if TG domestic flights use the same terminal facilities as QF departures, but I doubt they do.

Also note that the Qantas Club business class lounge will only operate as such from a few hours before the QF departure to SYD until the QF departure to LHR has gone. So likely only open from around 1pm until midnight.

Thanks NM. Given the size of BKK unless the terminals/concourses are the same or very close I guess we'll miss out but I will check it out tomorrow anyway.

iirc, TG domestic flights depart from concourse A and the QP is on concourse G, about 1.5 kilometres away :shock: in a totally separate part of the airport.

I'll be flying the same route (BKK-CNX) next Sat and was surprised to find out that none of the three listed lounges available via priority Pass (Louis Tavern) are accessible to domestic pax.
If I'd known at the time of booking, I'd have booked in J for only 1100baht extra (2,900 vs 1,800) and had access to the TG lounge.

Yes we're Priority Pass members too and that was the first place I checked but, as you note, no access for domestic passengers. I suppose I could give it a shot and feign ignorance if challenged?
