| 3-Hour Time Limit for Virgin Lounges |
Virgin Australia's new "The House" lounges at Sydney and Melbourne airports opened just a week ago.

The lounges are a nice space for Virgin Australia passengers to wait for their international flights. But there's one catch that an AFF member has discovered this week... you can only enter within 3 hours of your flight departing.
