Sydney Domestic J Lounge Showers

.I appreciated the shower after a long day out including Coogee Beach

I recently appreciated one after a long workday before the long flight home to Perth.

But they are clearly in need of a renovation, the mould in the tile grout is beyond the reach of bleach. It makes me worried about the dirt I can't see.

What I detest though is the air freshener they use. It is way overpowered for a tiny shower room with limited ventilation, it feels like I was inhaling that spray directly.

The shower head also squealed extremely unpleasantly on and off while the shower was operating.

How long till the knock down rebuild?

FWIW I’ve noted a couple of times that while the SYD Dom J showers are busy and messy during the morning peak of int’l connections, the QP ones next door can have better availability and are potentially in a better state too.

Yes, the J lounge showers were installed well before the current Qantas Club showers.

They were the original Qantas Club showers built in the latter 90's when the Qantas Club moved from an area near gate 16 to upstairs over gate 4. (Back when there were no domestic Business lounges. )

Before the 2000 Olympics the Qantas Club was extended to the West and then occupied the combined footprints of the current Business Lounge and Qantas Club. I am not certain but the current Qantas Club showers were built eIther then or when the lounge area was divided to make a J lounge.
