Lounge access is available after 16 May 2011 when services commence.
Lounge operated by Gideon Toal Management Services.


So, NOT the AC ... what's the Lounge like? How strict is the 6pm start - am connecting off the inbound BA193 arriving 3:25pm ... any ideas on the interim?

That is a set of 3 or 4 lounges operated by a 3rd party for various airlines (BA lounge amongst them); small and not as nice as the AC (which is open until 11pm from past experience), with worse food and drink selection (hard as that is to believe, but Texas is like that). As it is a contracted lounge, the 6pm start is probably strictly enforced (most likely it is in use by other airlines during the day and reconfigured for the QF start). Maybe QF is using the BA lounge and this becomes a JSA lounge
