I'm sure if you subsequently exit THAT area into the main hall, you can find somebody. DPS arrivals are rarely pleasant, as one of my favourite places in the world I've never enjoyed the airport experience. Having somebody waiting to whisk you away (albeit at a cost) is generally how I like to roll.

And skip the new Premier Lounge when you leave, it is a joke.

Originally, I was going to use points for stays, but I might save it for my europe trip where points are much more valuable, esp Paris.

Lol I was going to use premier lounge since I'm flying Jetstar (lcc). Is it better than no lounge?
