Thanks so much chater, I can't really ask for higher praise than being told that you feel like you've already been

I was back this weekend and it was super busy in both lounges, until the midday CX departure, at which point it suddenly became very empty! So perhaps (hopefully) you're right.



Thanks SPBanker, not long to go now! Have a safe trip.



There is a full service bar in the J lounge, serving almost exactly the same drinks. I quite like that there is only one bar and that the serene ambience of the F lounge is maintained by keeping said bar in the busier of the two lounges.

The LPR is a bit of a loss but the BdR is definitely ^



Thanks OldFruity (what a name)!
I'm so glad you've enjoyed my trip reports, I hope I didn't oversell the CX lounge and that you loved it as much as I did




I was back in the lounge on Saturday and was able to sample the breakfast options. I had the eggs royale, which were better than a similar dish in The Pier F HKG. I also got a fresh fruit salad, which was quite decent and my friend had pancakes which he said were really good.

Overall, nothing groundbreaking but I just love the atmosphere in the F Dining Room. The coffee could use some improvement (it was either not made in an espresso machine or it was made with too few shots).

The english breakfast has no black pudding though , which is almost enough to convince me to head to BA F... almost



It is just as good Smiley90, as you'll see in my review!



Ditto Neilgcal
Thank you, I was waiting for this I'm hoping for a near-equivalent of the new CX J/F lounge at YVR that opened this spring - you havent by any chance been to that, or anyone else here and can compare? If not I'll just make the comparison myself next weekend. The YVR one is fantastic.

Looks near-identical at least, though the food looks very different. This one with a noodle bar & buffet, the YVR with dim sum made-to-order. I'll miss my BBQ pork buns!
