That's kinda annoying as I imagine the QF lounges close shortly before QF155 departs around 23.15, so there's an hour or so gap before the EK lounge opens to accommodate EK405.

QF155 boards 11pm - but it has been removed from schedule from end of January - last QF flight then is QF95 (11pm?)

Wonder whether they'd still keep it open for JQ217?

Wouldn’t have thought so.
I’d imagine it closes as soon as QF95 is boarding

ET just published this … assuming HND also will be ok?
The Qantas-Emirates lounge access agreement is not worldwide: it applies only to lounges in Australia, New Zealand, Asia, the Middle East, North Africa and Europe. In addition, you can’t visit an Emirates lounge in Australia if you’re on a Qantas flight to a destination outside of that group, such to North America or South Africa.

I'm currently on an EK flight (in Economy) and was surprised lounge access at MEX was printed on my boarding pass with my QF number

Singapore Lounge Current Open times:

Singapore Lonunge Current opentimes:

Afternoon opening time seems to have been pushed forward from previously.

I was at BKK earlier this week for the QF flight to SYD (in J). The Emirates lounge opened at 14:30 (14:00 previously), but was up to its usual high standard. In fact they had two different types of champagne for self pour, Moet (my preference) and Mumm.

I think that EK beats the QR lounge, which I find pretentious (my personal opinion), and I stayed in the EK lounge from opening until I had to leave for the SYD flight around 17:25. It was a good trip...

And steak?

And steak?

Good eyes

 

[OATEK]

Is that satay chicken and curry?

Yes, satay chicken and curry, and both were excellent. The dessert selection was very good as were drinks.
And yes, MrsOATEK went for the steak.

From earlier this month when I was in Auckland:

(On another note, the EK lounge was opened prior to 5pm. Not sure exactly when, but I observed it was open ~4:55pm.)

Here again - I noticed it was open 4:45pm, so on entry I asked.

To paraphrase "It opens 4:30pm - this will change with daylight saving"

I remember back in 2019 when the lounge in SIN ran out of champagne and offered white wine with lemonade as an alternative

Hello
Can anyone tell me if I am booked on Emirates flight (QF codes) in business am I able to bring a guest (who is travelling in economy on the same flight) into the lounge with me? Currently QF gold but will lose if before this upcoming flight so can't fall back on that option.
