So, I returned from Korea this morning on the QF (Asiana operated). There are two Qantas check in counters (one for business and one for economy). There wasn't a line (the line was massive for the Asiana counters).
I used the Qantas business counter (with QP card). I had pre selected economy 12H, but they gave me something right at the back of the plane... Unhappy!
Then I was given a voucher to use the Asiana business lounge. Very surprised as I wasnt expecting this (due the previous response here). Anyway, the lounge was really nice (showers, live pianist and violinist, lots of reading material), but is was very crowded. You get that with *lounges though.
So, I thought I would let everyone know that I had access to a lounge as a QP member.
Cheers,
K
PS I was very surprised at how nice the Asiana flights were. Makes me wonder if I shouldn't be so stubborn with my loyalty to Qantas...
