Please can I ask why? Previously I've enjoyed QF for breakfast - always gone to CX from lunch onwards

Much appreciated. Thank you!

All the oneworld T3 lounges are within easy staggering distance :)

I'll try to keep my staggering to a minimum at 9 in the morning. :D

Cathay lounge is much more classy than the QF

That's cos you're doing airporting wrong ;)

I'll be in T3 next Friday; I really must get over my weird thing of not liking to use lounges of airlines I'm not flying that day, even though that's kinda part of the point of alliances. I've got about 5 hours there, so might do a bit of a tour.

For the first time after covid, I am back in T3, and twice this week! Once for a 10am departure, once for a 2pm departure. What are the best breakfast & lunch options? I am BA Silver (and also have the Amex Platinum card).

potentially I would say Centurion Lounge for Breakfast (had very good eggs Benedict’s last time around) and lunch at Cathay Pacific lounge. If flying on Sunday, maybe a visit to the BA lounge for the meat pies.

Been cruelly forced into BA GF T3 today 😂 as the Qantas lounge has a power outage and is shut. Am self medicating with Lanson Extra Age.

There appears to be new chairs since I was last here?

Does anyone know what the other lounges CX and QF charge BA/IB for passengers entry?

CX F has definitely suffered with the influx of AA F pax in the morning, it’s a lovely space but anything approaching 50% capacity makes it feel crowded.

You could add in the fact that the QF lounge doesn't open until 8am, and the restaurant part until 9am, so people on early flights aren't going to entrench themselves elsewhere.

I had breakfast in the Centurion lounge today. Hot options were restricted to shakshuka (very tasty) and British cooked breakfast items, these were a step above the quality in T5 Flounge IMHO.

Afterwards, Cathay F lounge wasn’t too busy and I managed to get a window facing lounging seat. Didn’t seem as many AA pax as usual, unsurprising given there were only c90 on the AA101 to JFK (25 in J, c65 in W and Y).
