Qantas First Lounge in Singapore

[Sprucegoose]

yeah, pretty chockas now

QR does the same until around 1900

Surely can’t be denied on a QF flight number. That would be insane!

They might look at the BA card stock and not like it. (BA CPH-LHR, QF LHR-SIN QF*JL SIN-HND)

Could ask the QF lounge at LHR to reprint boarding pass?

It looks QF2 was close to boarding for a 740pm departure.

Most had left by 7pm. It was genuinely busy.

In my experience QR has the same issue until around the same time.

Yeah, the DOH boards after 7:30pm at this time of year.

I was just denied entry to the QF 1st lounge here in SIN at 4:45pm. Arrived on QF291 and departing on EK355 at 9pm. Told lounge was at capacity due to flight from LHR just arriving and as I was on travelling on EK, would need to come back later. I’m a WP.

Slight change to my transit plans required. Currently in EK lounge, very quiet and food just starting to come out.

*edit I just watched QF2 land. So denied on expectation that lounge would be full?

Wow - that is a new low for sure!

I believe the pax was travelling on an EK ticket. I was in the lounge, and with the return of School holidays, it was chookas around the 7pm mark.

 

[Sprucegoose]

Will have to see how I go next week.
Have QF2 > QF4025 (JL36) on 30th

Let us know how you get on, please, Himeno.

About to leave CPH on BA805. 5 hours in LHR, then QF2 to SIN.

3 boarding passes on BA card (once they unjammed their printer). I think they reprinted the QF4025 pass on QF card at SIN when I did this same route in mid 2023.

It's been mentioned several times here, that if it's full and you are not flying on QF metal, you won't be allowed in due to capacity restrictions.

I agree <redacted> but OP states a timing of 1645 SIN time. How many QF flights have already landed at 1645 and how full is the lounge at 1645 with QF pax on average <redacted>?

I suppose the issue would be if the lounge is already "full enough" - as Sprucegoose mentioned - regardless of what flights the pax were on.
The point is if you aren't flying QF, there is a risk you will be turned away.
