Nice lounge with little cubby holes. Food looked comparable to the NRT F lounge - I didn't bother as I'd already eaten landside.
i think the lounge capacity line ployed by the Star Alliance member is kak - I think more likely was that CX did not want to pay an excessive JAL charge per pax use of the F lounge and that they might now have relented after getting bombed by unhappy F pax. Then the lawyers can also tell us whether it is breach of contract not to provide what they have taken your money and advertised to provide - kind of like getting a new car without the radio because it came from Japan.
