[Cancelled] SIN lounge crawl 7 June 2020

[AIRwin]

Lounges – QF J, QF F, BA, EK (if flying QF), and Priority Pass {edit: And QR?}

And CX (in T4) if flying the red-eye to HKG...

If flying out of T1,2,3 you can't access T4. Can you access T1,2,3 if flying out of T4?

Can you access T1,2,3 if flying out of T4?

Yes I've gone for a shower in T1 before my CX flight from T4...

I guess I should be a Platinum for this event as I will still be a WP by then. May have to find a cheap J fare though so I can access the Qatar lounge (if it opens on time). Might even head to KUL from SIN instead, as I'll only miss the EK lounge.

 

[JohnK]

Please add me to the list.

I'll sort flights out later. We're going to Thailand in May/June so there could also be another 2 on the list.

Qatar Airways is opening its own lounge at Singapore Changi T1

Oneworld passengers departing Singapore Changi T1 will soon be spoiled for choice, with up to 4 airline-operated lounges to choose from

Apparently there's also going to be a QR lounge too next year!

Anyways I'm in too

Yes currently under construction next to the EK lounge. From the outside of the hoardings it seems very small.

 

[Kiwi_Flyer]

But it's not the lounges; it's the company you get to keep.

"What could possibly go wrong!"

Some people never learn

 

[Kiwi_Flyer]

Interested. Still to sort out flights, but I have a few ideas.

 

[Mattg]

At this stage I have no idea whether I'll be able to make this, but I'll keep the date in my diary.

 

[Mal]

I'll see if I can attend!

What SIN really needs is a proper Amex Centurion lounge, like in HKG and other locations. Not that most of us will get into the private dining side of it, but I was reading a review of the Centurion lounge in HKG the other day and must say that it sounds like a very competitive offering.

It would also be nice if QF36 was a reconfigured a380 there should be a few done by June.

If they are doing one a month there should be a pretty much 50:50 chance.

Are talking about the same airline, how long did the a330’s take

Well QF said it, so it must be true.

 

[LinaLee]

Am hoping to make it this time, fingers crossed. Gold please.

Hoping to attend my third AFF lounge crawl.
I'm keen to take advantage of the current QF Asia sale and maybe do a couple of mileage runs to/from SIN.
Is anyone else taken advantage of any intra-Asia deals?
Now to do some research...

Rumour has it that Amex lounges only open for two reasons:

1) The premium Amex customer base in that city is huge.
2) The number of folks using Priority Pass or their Amex to enter third party lounges cost Amex more than it would than if Amex had their own lounge.

So basically, Amex lounges are churn reduction and cost reduction, and marketing tools for Amex.

Well considering Hong Kong as a peaceful city-state is now forever-ruined, some of those Centurions might be moving...
