Using Complimentary Lounge Passes internationally

[JulezK]

Hi all, I have just recently joined as I have this specific question, so thank you to anyone in advance who uses their valuable time to reply to me.

I have complimentary passes to use from my Qantas Premier Platinum credit card. I am flying to Japan on Thursday with my family and initially I was hoping to use the passes in Japan on the way back since that is an evening flight and I will be able to enjoy an alcoholic drink in the afternoon. However I noticed here it states "The use of complimentary invitations are not permitted in partner lounges." But when I go to use my passes, the Tokyo to Melbourne one is there available for selection as shown below

Does anyone know if I can use it or not from personal experience? I don't want to use it and then get rejected there and waste the pass. Thank you.

You will only be able to use the passes in QF owned and operated lounges.
So MEL ok but not NRT despite what is showing on the lounge invitation portal in your bookings.
