That was on yesterday as well. Have they brought out the chicken sliders and onion rings yet??In the SYD lounge, not as busy as I expected. Vegetable biryani is the main on rotation today, I usually like biryani but this one is pretty bland.
I thought there is an additional exit...near the loos? I think MEL lounge has a lot of room for improvement. As a major transfer point also it should be better.Sorry, we all know this of course, but I have to gripe.
I like the SYD layout of the VAd lounge there, at the least, they have the upstairs open(able) if the needs arise, and the premium entry.
MEL since the redevelopment, is now bad, ie, no premium exit, you have to enter and exit the same way, and if there are a lot of people wanting entry/waiting, its not a good set up.
The old way, with the side exit was good, in the sense that you or I could pop out onto the gates that way.
When they did the most recent redevelopment, that spot where the premium exit was, got taken over by the beer shop, and the sign also does not allow premium exit.
And when that area is packed, its packed, no way for people to go.
But due to way the airport is set up, I guess, there is nothing VA can really do.
Loos are ok, tho, had a look see into the shower area, grout still is white, ie, no mould.
Under Bain, lots of cost cutting, but also due to MEL airport, VA has also itself saved a lot of $.
What was your routing?OOL Lounge reasonably busy.
1st Flight cancelled next flight
now delayed. Estimated departure time nearly 3 hours
from original booking.
Baked beans, scrambled eggs and pancakes.
Wonder if we will still be here
for dinner.
Never mind the bar will be open in an hour or so.
OOL - MELWhat was your routing?
With the delays and issues currently there is no way I’d be doing that on the same day. I’d be flying to SYD the night before if possibleOOL - MEL
The delays concern me - next Friday we fly to SYD to depart SYD to ZRH
Our Sydney flight departs at 16.10. What time should we leave OOL ( separate tickets VA and SIA) to comfortably transfer from Domestic to International ?
All the line breaks meant I read this like a poem. I like the conclusion tooOOL Lounge reasonably busy.

Saturdays are always my favourite times to be in VA lounges. They never seem to be busy.it's not very busy
Not brilliant...but maybe needs to be cut some slack....probably booked on a 2 hour flight that has been cancelled multiple times and then routed via MEL 24 hours later!!Virgin Lounge Melbourne.
Am I old and tired if I find this inappropriate?
And at least took his shoes off.Not brilliant...but maybe needs to be cut some slack....probably booked on a 2 hour flight that has been cancelled multiple times and then routed via MEL 24 hours later!!
But it's the dirty socks that really add the final touch !And at least took his shoes off.
As most Mums will attest to, once they've been worn once, white socks are never truly "white" again.But it's the dirty socks that really add the final touch !
