Your flight will likely leave from the main terminal, this terminal only has a regional business lounge.
The F lounge is in the satellite terminal and at this time the transfer train is not in operation (it might be from next month). You will need to take a (premium) transfer to the satellite terminal for now, it all depends how much you want to use the F lounge and how much time you have. You need to leave the F lounge back to the main terminal 1 hour before departure.

Thanks Globalist. I didn't think I had an issue myself with the gold status but I was inquiring on behalf of my family who do not have status. I think we'll just stick to the J lounge in the main terminal to save any mucking around.
Appreciate the reply though.
