This is a question, not a whinge.
Just wondered if anyone had some industry knowledge as to why almost none of the lounges in Oz accept Priority Pass or Veloce.
Is it size? ------ Bristol (population 500k) has a lounge! Ditto many other UK cities so that argument doesn't hold up.
Have the Priority Pass people tried hard enough with our big two.
Is there enough volume for an independent lounge to open in say MEL or SYD
Would love to hear peoples' thoughts.
p.s. I know about Cairns and the Amex Sydney lounge - I'm thinking more about domestic and the other cities.
The private owners of Australian airports and the $$$ they charge makes it uneconomical to have their own lounges. Even if it was cheaper .. space is a issue. Also a majority of the target market would already have a lounge to access based on cabin or status, so not really necessary
