SYD domestic VAustralia lounge access?

I have an VAustralia domestic Eco flight upcoming, entered my Virgin America Elevate Gold card number but it shows no lounge access on boarding card.
Is that correct?

I understand
Sydney Lounge Premium Entry is available exclusively to Virgin Australia Business Class, 'The Business' guests, Velocity Platinum and Gold members and partner airline reciprocal status members travelling with carry-on baggage only.

So bec i checked in a bag i am not allowed?

I removef my checked bag and bought a 2nd on my partners name... Now i should have access plus guest but still shows no access?

Premium Entry is a specific mode of kerbside lounge entry for pax with carry on only. This applies to all pax.

If you're allowed access otherwise, do bag drop or counter check-in, pass security and then go to the lounge as you would any other lounge.

Your status may not be recognised on the Boarding Pass but flashing your Virgin America Elevate Gold card to the staff at the lounge entry will do the trick

Drop your bag at the premium bag drop and then go outside to the vehicle drop-off, turn left and walk to to the premium entry. It's generally quicker than the security queues.

Thanks for side entrance tip, worked well. Lounge also access, it was meant no checked bags allowed in the lounge.. Vamerica gold was not been able to be entered, not even at checkin desk, but lounge access no prob.
Lounge very loud.. Urgs..

Sadly it doubles as the Virgin creche. Not sure what URGS stands for, I refer to them as F*** Trophies

Just been to the CNS lounge, one baby entertained the whole room.. But 10min the checkin desk guy came over and asked the group to calm the baby down or leave
Nice touch
