Long wait in BNE for a flight connecting my domestic VA to the late SQ246 out of BNE (schedule change increased 5 hr transit to 9 hrs).
Small mercy I could check-in using the kiosk before the official check-in actually opened, because I had carry-on only. So time wasted in security and passport control didn’t take reduce lounge time. The KrisFlyer Gold in BNE opens the standard 3 hrs before departure, and I was second in.
Unfortunately the SQ lounge is tiny with a poor selection of everything. I think the dessert option took the cake: chocolate crackles … yes, cocoa Rice Bubbles in a cupcake liner like a 5 year old’s birthday party.
To top it off, two red wines and the heavier option was Penfolds Koonunga Hill Shiraz 2021 rrp $8 in Dan Murphy’s.
Maybe I will skip BNE next time.
