Thanks Skoogle - look forward to catching up with you.
I thought I would do a recce for our members flying up on QF175 - so I took it on Saturday. Met up with a couple of AFF members and escorted one into the First Lounge.
First impressions - brilliant. Loved the breakfast area and waiter service with view to the open kitchen, along with the Library and lots of computers (and even private work rooms). Loved the old fashioned flight departure "clicker" at the top of the escalator.
Not so hooked on the seating (shape) and shape of the wooden beams, just not my taste.
Did get the pleasure of seeing the SQ A380 taxiing past as I walked to the plane (on final call) and saw it take off while seated onboard waiting for us to leave the Gate. Presume that it was an on time departure for the A380's flight, so might make a photo opportunity.
