HKG lounge crawl 10 June 2018

[JohnK]

Heading off to Pier J to tick off 9 lounges today.

 

[Aeolus]

TTR...Mh433 gate is now 208, just wore out half my lunch scrambling from 214 to 208 which is on the other side!

 

[JohnK]

Interesting surprise at gate 61.

 

[JohnK]

And about to head off on QF128.

Pleasure to meet everyone again and to meet new people. HKG is a great place for lounge runs with so many options.

 

[Ewing]

Finished up in Centurion with Fifa and Hvr after a lovely meal in the Pier.

If I knew HKG was this excellent I wouldn’t have been so late!

Looking forward to the next one!

Sitting on QF30 after a great day.

Thank for coming everyone!

Wow ... Tired just reading that ...

Were all attendees ever in the one lounge at the same time?

 

[Hvr]

Now in SYD domestic J lounge. My J seat had a shadow. Slept well.

Had a great time meeting lots of people old and new. Thanks to @JessicaTam for her organisation.

Look forward to next year.

I don’t think so. A large number in the Wing F before everyone had arrived, and quite a few in the Pier F after a few had left.

There were 12 in Wing F and another 2 turned up a little later in the other lounges.

I just had a look at the breakfast buffet in the SYD Business lounge and had to look away. I'm all "fooded" out.

 

[Hvr]

I didn't eat on the flight home. As soon as the seat belt sign went off I laid the bed flat and slept.

Still not hungry.

 

[JessicaTam]

Is it wrong that I turned down a refill of my pre-departure champagne?

Pictures or it didn't happen.

 

[Fifa]

A big thank you to @JessicaTam for organising a very successful HKG lounge crawl!

It was great to catch up with those I already know and also new AFFers. How the time flew!!!

We had a fantastic crew on the upper deck of QF128 and I was asleep before supper was served .

 

[JohnK]

The pork on QF128 was quite ok. Couldn't resist.

Great to catch up with everyone and see a few new faces.

Big thanks to Jessica for organising!

Did you notice the damage Sodexo has done to the quality of CX F lounge catering? Most CX FF now see the QF lounge food as superior.

@JessicaTam thanks for organising it was a great day.

Now back to the grindstone, arrived just after 5am this morning, 12 hours with the family and now back at the airport for the next flight

The VA toasted sandwich is not quite the same as the CX short ribs or the QF cheesecake from yesterday.

And for those who thought the dining in Pier F was better than Wing F! Same menu. Hahaha!
