NRT lounge crawl 8 June 2025

Keen to join this (consider my Gold for the moment). If I do will be on the last CX service out. Just want to put out a feeler to check it's still happening given the QF flights will be at HND by then.

It is going ahead. Some have booked non-QF flights to safeguard against the changes.

I am still going although I am now on a slightly earlier JL flight back to AU.

Airport Limousine bus?

I am staying at the NRT HH the night before. 25,000 points seemed a better deal than A$500.

The Hilton may not let the riff-raff like myself in, I have booked into Mystays which is near by.

I thought everyone would be staying at the Christmas hotel


The Hilton is great value, their special $700 steam toasters are worth checking out at Breakfast

Damn, missed that.

It was reported the change will take place before 30 April 2025. I know a few members have booked QF flights and will need to make a call.

I am looking at the last CX flight as well.

Matt, I have spoken to the Hilton, and they will let you in if you commit to cleaning up your act.

I may even stay there myself.

Actually, I booked the ANA Crowne Plaza - got a decent rate as well.

I'm Platinum now. Have book CX542 to HND on 5/6, and CX501 from NRT on 8/6. Will probably just stay somewhere in Tokyo for all 3 nights and head to the airport in the afternoon, depending on when others plan to be at NRT.

EDIT: Also I'm QFF WP so can guest one person into the JL F lounge. Flying in J. The cabin on CX501 looked almost empty...

Early/mid afternoon is the usual start time.

Early/mid afternoon is the usual start time.

If checking luggage, ensure there is an early check-in. They can be pretty strict about these things in Japan.
