Time to grab something to eat in the restaurant. As CX trying to improve service and catering a decision was made to take over the lounges from 3rd party contractors and manage them themselves. The first and only lounge so far that is run directly by CX is Pier F in HKG. Staff members got...

Time to get massage. Wait was only 35 minutes, not bad. I chose foot massage which was great, very relaxing. Wasn’t hungry yet so went to rest in one of the day suites.

Lounge #5 The Pier First Class Located in T2 near gate 63. Note there’s train from T1 to T2 but not vv so if your departure gate is at the other end better leave about 10 min earlier to allow leisurely walk back to T1. Such a beautiful lounge, love the decor. Let’s kick off...

Lounge #4 Qantas Located in the northern side of T1 just after security. Frankly the only reason to visit this lounges is if you too much time and nothing better to do. Ah and the caramel cheesecake, gotta have the caramel cheesecake, it’s sooo good! Apart from that it’s a nice...

Lounge #3 The Deck This is one of CX J lounges. Located in T1 near gate 6. It’s a smallish lounge but with nice decor and spacious area overlooking the terminal. I was there just few minutes There’s buffet and dining area with small menu to choose from. Everything is selfs serve...

On the other side of the bridge is the Sky Bar which offers set menu for PriorityPass so I’ve decided to check it out. Sadly I forgot to take photo of the menu but the choice was between pasta dish or 3 Pinchos, choice between 3 coughtails plus tea or coffee. I chose the Pinchos and sour coughtail...

Lounge #2 Sky Deck & Sky Bar While technically not an airline lounge this is the place I was most excited to check out for the first time. Access is opposite gate 24. It’s basically a long bridge with amazing runway views. On one end is the Sky Deck which I can only describe as an avgeek...

Some more photos of The Wing before moving on.

Had some time before my flight back home last week to do a cheeky lounge run for old times sake and to check out what’s new in HKG. Lounge #1 The Wing First Class Located in T1 near gate 2. Can be accessed after security on the south end of the terminal or from gate 1-4 downstairs. Let’s...

Got some tucked away from DM clearance few years ago, glad to hear it’s good 👍

Screenshot booking is gone unfortunately. Can only book what’s available online and it often doesn’t match other *A websites 😞

In fairness they did invest in two brilliant F lounges, something most airlines don’t offer particularly to F pax who don’t fly with them.

The *G lounge in T3 right next to SK used to be a hidden gem back when it opened as pax didn’t know about it. Haven’t been there in a while, need to check it out again. In SK I’m always going for a sofa, if available, in the small section (former F) which is more quiet.

JD Secret Wine #725 down from $60 to $19.98 is Carlei Green Stephen Thompson Yarra Valley PN 2019 (SK95). https://mailchi.mp/jdcellars/2858-2667068?e=64bd0157d5 Never heard about the wine and the only published score is by our favourite reviewer for hire. Hmm 🤔

The T3 SK lounge is disappointing, I’ve said that from the moment it opened. SQ missed an opportunity and instead created another boring lounge as the previous one just with nicer decor. Even after the *G lounge next door opened SK remained constantly overcrowded and I don’t think the T2 lounge...

This Chard is still a baby but the nose is incredible and it has beautiful long aftertaste, love it! Left half of the Stonier in the fridge to see how it develops and went to finish this bottle I’ve been Coravining for two weeks. This is modern style Burg, quite different yet very good 👍

That Montepuliciano looks lovely, hope you’ll score it on your next SQ flight 🤞

They’re great undies, for men at least.

Used to be a favourite of mine back when I was Plat and Rydges offered 50% off F&B with no restrictions!
