I can definitely see the lounge getting more crowded as time goes by. It's distasteful that OZ and KE are accepting PP holders in a country where "everyone can get unlimited PP for $30".
Completely agree. They really need to stop doing that and let the PP members go to the HUB or the other (Matina?) lounge. Perhaps they get good money from PP for each visit, but it's gotta hurt their business some with the overcrowding affecting paying business class customers.
Back before I was D+, I complained about the overcrowding situation once on a particularly busy day when I was flying in C and they responded by giving me access to the F lounge. I doubt they'd do that now though being the F lounge is much more crowded than it was back then.
