Article: Qantas Auckland Lounge Upgrade: The End of an Era

Changed my flight. Too much uncertainty

Yep always a good move avoiding JQ

This time of year the Emirates lounge opens around 5pm giving an unrushed hour for those on the Qantas 7pm Sydney flight and more time for Melbourne PAX on the nights when the 8pm flight operates.

So I wonder if QF staff will effectively staff the EK lounge until it's normal opening time.

From memory Strata had similar hours to the QF lounge.

Last hurrah in the AKL F lounge today and I’m pleased to report they’re going out with Hokey Pokey!

And today’s champagne:

 

[Captain Halliday]

Do-it-yourself Affogato with Hokey Pokey.

Hints of crème brûlée with a little bitterness form the espresso. Delicious.

So by prior reports the lounge should be closed today, with pax heading to Emirates and Strata lounges.

That's odd. I don't suppose the particular flight would make a difference to the messaging? My onward flight is QF3.

Mines now has a different message saying it’s already closed.

Anyone been since Sunday?

If I was the last AFFer through, do I get a plaque or a something?

If I was the last AFFer through, do I get a plaque or a something?

Or, an AFF-do held in your honour. Or, at least a toast at the next Auckland one.
