Ten hours …… ?!?! OMG - you really deserve some sort of medal !

That’s equivalent to five separate visits for me ! My ‘default’ at any airport is to schedule around 90 mins to two hours for pre-flight lounging, because that allows a) plenty of time for a meal and a number of drinks, and b) a cushion for any (minor) departure delay which might take me up to say three hours (that being close to my boredom threshold). Might extend by 30 mins if in need of a shower and / or accessing special lounges such as CX @ HKG.
