I think that the problem is that you can't see photos uploaded to AFF unless you (a) join and (b) log in.

In addition, AFF also only gives non-members a limited number of page views before you're locked out.

I'm in the brand new QF SIN lounge at the moment....

What a lounge!
- Medium busy at 5.30pm (compared to LHR T5 First lounge, not to mention Club) edit (6.30pm): Ok, the lounge is starting to fill up and drink/food service is slowing down quite a lot...
- Drinks are made to order (Two mojitos, please)
- As is food (wagyu beef with noodles or salmon? Hard choice... both, please!)
- There is some buffee selection as well. Everything seems to be quite fresh. Salads and desserts... nice.
- Wines are superb, but then again I don't know much about wines so for you they may be rubbish.

I like to travel comfortably but tank tops not allowed (except for women apparently). I was quickly escorted to showers to change a t-shirt on. Weird, but whatever... CX Wing F or any other F lounge staff have never had any issues with my bare shoulders.
So heads up if you (have a penis and) want to enter the lounge wearing a tank top.

Me likes very much. I would have to rate this best business class lounge I have been to. Better than First class lounge in T5/T3 LHR also.

Until tomorrow the lounge is available only to people travelling on Qantas. After the grand opening normal ow rules apply.

AIUI, there are single lounges now for both QF and BA.

This is clearly intended to make F BA pax on this route even more hacked off.

That's the new QF lounge which opens tomorrow. It is the former BA/QF J lounge.

I'm not too keen on the dining tables - reminds me of everyone sitting down for school dinner. Would have preferred seperate tables, like in the SYD F lounge.

Now that the QF lounge has opened, BA can close theirs for a refresh. It would not have been practical for both airlines to close their lounge at the same time.

I tend to agree... what were they thinking?

Is the restaurant and cocktail bar only available for QF platinum (OW emerald) or for all lounge users?
