"Be happy with what little you've got. There are people with nothing who still manage to smile." Free food, free drink, place to sit! Look on the bright side!

And think about the poor souls at HBA and their "lounge"!

May hopefully

Sorry, read it as may hopefully as in (probably), has another read, then it tinged in my slow pooch brain, you mean May as in the month of May.

No. Building works ongoing behind high walls cutting space in half. Small cordoned off area for statused members

I believe that’s the temp CL area. Paper menu and wait staff.
I transited ADL last week. I think the new QClub is actually pretty decent. Hopefully the J lounge will be good.

The decor is nice, it just "feels" small. The old QP felt spacious and had various corners and nooks and crannies you could head for to get away from the throng. The new QP is pretty much just one room.

That’s okay, Poochie. We knew what you meant.

Hi All,

Anyone with current personal experience of WP arrival access to ADL lounge? I’m flying in this weekend with a guest on QF-OMG o’clock and looking to spruce up in the lounge before heading into the City.

Regards,

BD

Sorry Franky.
May hopefully, that can be read 2 ways.
May hopefully (ie, be completed)... by when ever they do complete it.
May hopefully, as in the month, ie, next month, as in May 2025.

I’m not sure it was said as “tongue in cheek”

But the lounge might open tomorrow 17th April ….

Wow. Was not expecting the new lounge to be open for my early May trip. I guess there’s a very good chance it will be now.

Can't wait to see photos of the new Chairman's lounge also

Nice. I am there on Saturday. I will report back if no-one else has by then.

Went through yesterday. Absolute zoo and was advised on my way out that it's at least another couple of weeks away by who i think was one of the lounge managers. I made a comment about how they could've done with it over the next 2 weeks and he replied it would've been handy for the last month so it seems they are quite strained for space even without school holidays...

The new space for the Q Club is nice and well appointed, but obviously much smaller than the previous iteration. I do think the natural light at the rear is beautiful but it's a shame it doesn't really reach the front closer to the entrance. Will be interested to see how it plays into the CL and J sections.

It’s progressing on rapidly

Lots of workforce on deck

New entrance ready. QC to the right of the reception, J directly behind and Chairman’s to the left. Looked beautiful, can’t wait to see the finished lounge. With the old entrance now blocked, QC have been expanded as well. Note: they’re not letting guests through to the J and Chairman lounges yet.

Might be worth a weekend jaunt in June.

So the opening tomorrow proved correct for the entrance foyer only

Funny - I just checked the Qantas Newsroom and nothing about it there. It is, however the airline's 90th anniversary of international flying
