I'm in the QF Lounge thread

[JohnK]

BNE domestic business lounge until ~3:15pm.

Airport slow today.

 

[JohnK]

MEL Qantas First Lounge until ~12:30pm.

I can't believe they did not recognise me when I walked into the First Lounge. They wanted to see JQ boarding pass and confirm I'm still Platinum. DTKWIA?

So last time I was in Domestic Melbourne Qantas lounge was pre COVID.....
Can someone post what you can eat and drink from it now as they're are no new YouTube videos of Domestic(non business) Melbourne Qantas lounge. Is it self serve for everything now?

I was in the MEL J lounge last week, seemed back to "normal" except Spice Bar wasn't operating.
I assume the QP is the same in terms of service. Self serve everything except some alcoholic beverages from the bar.

Normal being what available at what times of change over?

 

[DrJ]

PER J lounge for next 30mins until the BNE flight boards.
Security an absolute zoo this morning, and the premium lane has been enhanced

I plan on being in the SYD QF J lounge at the International Terminal tomorrow (Saturday May 21) afternoon (i.e. 1 - 4 PM) as I'm travelling on a JQ "domestic" flight to HNL. If anyone wants to meet up (or guest in), feel free to PM.

I am in the SYD F lounge for the next couple of hours.

 

[DrJ]

BNE Dom J lounge (finally, after negotiating non existent premium entry). Can guest 2 until 945 to PER departs.

Also, cantina deserted tonight, as it was on a brief arrival visit on Wed @1315. BNE people, has it permanently closed? This used to be my second home, but this is my first post Covid time back.

Interesting - is the spice bar open? Any pics of the menu?

 

[PLANT]

This is General side QF just buffet and no menu
Did the walk round the lounge and no sweets to carry on plane ie. mentos????
Also the photocopier is it of order.... so even though paper in it not working .... seriously..... no computers anymore.... never seemed to work well anyways.

Actual glassware back in SYD Dom J

Glassware definitely in BNE Q Club (Not allowed into J as on an Air NZ ticket and only Gold)

Just thought I'd provide a few photos from my recent trip to the SYD QF INTL J Lounge when I visited back on Saturday May 21 around 3 PMish (in no particular order):

Fairly empty lounge, perhaps everyone was busy at the polls that day?


Menu I snapped (there was another station as you'll see from my plate):


Usual drinks selection you'd expect in an INTL J lounge:




My "lunch" at the lounge:


As my flight was taking off shortly I did not have enough time to evaluate all amenities in the lounge, most notably the shower facilities which we know is crucial in this COVID era to stay safe. That being said I will be flying again, "domestically" on QF in January to AKL, and should have some time to report on such pressing matters!

So they still have the large lamp globes? I am looking forward to Qantas F lounge in June. Unlikely to keep QP as very little flying before anniversary date. But have LTG so back to INT QJ and Dom QC. I'll be seeing those globes again. I'll keep in touch.
