Domestic flights ex intl terminals - eligible for lounge access?

[burneracc]

I have to fly PER <-> SYD fairly often for work and I'm able to book flights on the 787 which departs and arrives from the international terminals at both airports respectively. I don't have any QF status (yet) but I have an amex platinum charge + priority pass which give me various lounge accesses, and I would love to use both the aspire premium lounge in Perth + the centurion lounge in Sydney, however I'm not sure how much they will scrutinise my domestic boarding passes. The reason I am posting in this forum is because I figured maybe there are other people who have tried this.

My main query is just whether it is even possible to get into either a priority pass lounge in SYD or the centurion lounge via amex with a domestic ticket? Do they check the tickets that much, or is being in the intl terminal enough to get in? I would rather not gamble on this and then have to go through intl security just to find out I have 0 chance of getting into either lounge.

I really would love to visit the amex lounge in SYD seeing as there isn't one in PER so I am thinking I might book SYD -> PER via the intl terminal either way to try my luck, but any experience around this type of trick that other AFFers have had would be much appreciated!

You'll have no issues - so long as you hold a valid boarding pass and can physically present at the lounge (and provided the lounge is open and you have an entitlement to use the lounge of course), you're all good to go. These lounges are remunerated per entry, so the distance you're flying is not of much relevance to them.

On the Sydney end you should be all good.

Qantas flights in Perth operate from Terminal 3/4 so you won't be getting anywhere near the Aspire lounge which is in Terminal 1
