CX - 6 (HKG x1)

That’s a bit less than it used to be but honestly it’s been a fairly stable number for as long as the lounge has been open.

I’m not convinced OWE numbers have increased much post-COVID either.

I pass through this lounge 5 or 6 times a year and it’s never close to capacity (and hasn’t been since I started using it regularly in 2017) so I’m at a loss as to what has really changed that would prompt this restriction.
to be fair these past two months in weekday evenings the lounge has been quite packed with some wait (around 20-30 mins) for dinner
