You can only enter the airside area (where the lounges are) of the terminal from which you are departing (ie. T1 in your instance). In T1, there is one shared Star Alliance lounge, which has separate Business Class and First Class lounges within it. Flying NZ J will permit you access to the Business Class lounge.

Genius1 Jul 2, 12, 5:44 am Actually, NZ puts its Business Premier passengers in the F side of the *A lounge there in T1. That's interesting! Never knew that. Personally I'm not a fan of the F side as it's quite dark, although is generally quieter than the J side. Genius1 Jul 4, 12, 2:35 pm What is in there F side that is not on the Business side? The beverages are slightly upgraded and the food selection is less attacked than in the main J lounge. The seating is slightly more spacious eg. with tables between seats. There are more armchair type seats. Other than that, decor is virtually identical and there is no waiter service or anything like that. The biggest drawback of the F side is the lack of natural light (not that the J side fares much better on that front). |
