Cathay Manila Lounge

[akenne21]

Just wondering if the Cathay Manila lounge in T3 is still closed?
What options are there for QF Plat lounge access at Manila if so?

As of a few weeks ago it was still very much closed, no sign of life at all. Options for QF Plat are nil (unless you have Priority Pass or Diners in which case you could access the Marhaba lounge).

Still looking very closed and deserted tonight,,,despite 2 CX flights being called while I have been in the terminal this evening.

Is the PAGSS lounge still closed?
That was the lounge used for OW pax on our last visit there but that was pre Covid

I got in the PAGSS Lounge with my Gold membership back in August.

It felt nicer than my memories of the Qantas lounge from my last trip through Manila in 2018.

The PAGSS lounge has indeed been open for most of this year...CX currently use it as do QF/QR/TK and several other airlines.

Off topic for the thread, but anyone know the status of the JL Sakura lounge in MNL?

Walking past the CX lounge just now, was still looking very closed but there was at least someone inside who appeared to be doing some setting up. Scheduled opening is apparently in April?

Can confirm that as of tonight 25/4 this lounge is back open.
