Hi team

Just checking if anyone knows what time the F lounge in Melbourne closes? Website says “till last Qantas departure” which isn’t that helpful. For reference I’m on the 2:25am Emirates departure and am wondering if I’ll have to slum it in the Emirates lounge.

Will close after QF155 about 23:30
 
Do they really close 11.15pm as per website? I'm here at 10.30pm as I'm on MH128 and I thought I could go grab a quick bite for 30 mins... but it's closed already..

I suspect it's because they may not be flying the MEL - AKL flight and the last QF departure is to LAX departing now (thus boarding wouldve happened 30+ mins ago). If AKL was still running they'd open the lounge until that flight boards.

Yeah see that now... sad to have missed out :( Far cry in Marhaba lounge.
 
Does anyone have the current closing time of the MEL QF F Lounge? Qantas website and Google Maps say 2045, but I have noticed that the 2130 QF95 to LAX stopped flying on 11/07/24. The current latest daily flight is the 1830 QF157 to AKL. Does the lounge now close around 1800?

We are flying on a OW carrier later that evening and wondering whether to go early to have dinner at the First Lounge. If it stays open until 2045 it may be worth it, but if closes around 1800 it definitely isn't.
