SIN Lounge Crawl 11 June 2023

[JessicaTam]

The world is opening up but there are still some restrictions. So to ensure we have the best chance to get to a number of lounges I have decided to head back to SIN once again. The QF F and QR lounges are now open, so adding some variety.

Just in case this is all new to you, here are the previous crawls for reference:

SIN lounge crawl 24 Aug 2013
HKG lounge crawl 8 June 2014
KUL SIN lounge crawl 7 June 2015
HKG lounge crawl 12 June 2016
NRT lounge crawl 11 June 2017
HKG lounge crawl 10 June 2018
KUL-SIN lounge crawl 9 June 2019
SIN lounge crawl 12 June 2022

Potential lounges – QF J, QF F, BA, QR (if flying in J/F), EK (if flying QF), and Priority Pass.

Edit: current lounges

QF J	opens 4 hours before first QF flight	T1	QC, OWS, travelling J
QF F	opens 4 hours before first QF flight	T1	OWE, travelling F
BA	1600-2200	T1 near QF J	OWS, travelling J
BA CCR	1600-2200	T1 inside BA lounge	travelling F only. No entry by status
QR	1800-0300	T1	travelling J or F only. No entry by status
EK	1710-0050	T1	OWS or travelling J on EK or QF only
SATS premier	24 hours	T2	OWS or travelling J on MH only; Amex +2; PP +2
Plaza Premium	1200-2200	T1	Amex +2 guests; Priority Pass +2

To access the QR and EK lounges please note the requirements. There are usually enough members with OWE status to get everyone into the QF F lounge.

Depending on interest, there may be a 'breakfast crawl' starting in KUL before heading to SIN.

If I can find suitable award flights, I'll be there. From a quick look, I can see QF52 in J on the 12th, but obviously one day too late. Will keep an eye on availability.

 

[serfty]

Booked in anticipation. Can't access EK, but others should be OK.

 

[Kiwi_Flyer]

Interested but way too early to confirm.

 

[astrosly]

Nuts, I am going through SIN a day earlier

 

[JessicaTam]

I am sure those getting to SIN in the days before would be happy to have a dinner catch-up 'pre-crawl'.

 

[Princess Fiona]

I’ll follow this thread. I’m a slight chance of being in SIN that day.

 

[JessicaTam]

If three mods are in the same airport, does that become an illegal gathering?

 

[JohnK]

I'd love to attend but only if airfares return to normal or award availability opens up and I'm not overly confident either of those will occur.

 

[mrsterryn]

I am determined one day to get to a meeting OS lol.
Sadly from mid Jan for about seven or so months I am apparently barred from flying

I'm actually already booked MH623 on the 11th departing KUL 1:25pm, arriving SIN 2:40pm.

 

[jswong]

Look forward to this. Flights booked and flying out of SIN on QF2 to SYD

 

[Bindibuys]

Bugger, will be in ANC on 11th. I WILL make it one day.

 

[Matt_01]

I will most likely be attending as I have managed to secure some flights SIN-SYD, I could also get up to KL if it starts there.

Great - what could possibly go wrong!

 

[serfty]

No, no, .... no!

@jswong and I still bear the scars from that involuntary downgrade to business class.

 

[trippin_the_rift]

Tentative for SIN
Likely yes for KUL pre-whatevers

 

[GoldCanyon340]

I'd like to do this but it's around the time of Mrs 340's birthday so hmmmmm. If fares get less stupid then I could consider.
