Next year I'll be taking a trip to Malaysia and will be returning to MEL with Malindo. It'll be an early morning arrival at 0415 with a number of hours to wait before my 0700 flight to HBA on Jetstar.
I've recently been approved for the Citi Prestige card so will happily have free access to Priority Pass lounges and eateries on arrival. However, I'm struggling to see how to best take advantage of this! As far as I can see, with no arrival lounges my only option for somewhere to go and wait is the landside restaurant Picketts Deli and Rotisserie? Or I presume the Rex lounge at T4 once checked in to HBA?
As I'm new to all this, perhaps I'm missing something and there's a way to access other lounges and eateries in the other terminals?
On a related note, what happens when you want to visit an airside arrival lounge (is there such a thing?) or eat airside before collecting your luggage? Where does luggage go if you don't collect it from the belt?
Gratefully accepting help and suggestions!
