SIN lounge access when flying CX
 

Flying CX in business SIN-HKG on Wednesday evening with wife and daughter. CX website only lists Dnata lounge. Would I be right in thinking we could access BA and/or Qantas lounges instead?

Yes, you can

You can use any oneworld lounge within the terminal that has a business class lounge.

Go to the Qantas lounge for the food, BA for the bar, and is quieter outside the hours when the BA flights operate. The lounges are right next to each other.

I actually quite like the DNATA lounge CX uses, it is a huge step up from the skyview lounge.

QF is definitely a good lounge but at busy hours can also be a bit of a zoo. BA is fine. In any case you can access any OW lounge and you can do a little safari trying all of them :)

I was in the Dnata lounge this morning and found it quite nice--good food. My one complaint was that the "comfy" chairs are not particularly comfy (the backs are very straight and seats somewhat shallow). I had two hours to kill but didn't feel like hauling myself from one lounge to another, so didn't try the BA lounge.

QF lounge opens at 2.30pm and the BA lounge at 3pm.

As long as they open, u can use any of ow lounge (2:30pm-about 11pm)

depending on which flight you could be at either the C or D gates. unfortunately they are quite far from each other (~15 minute walk maybe?) but the BA / QF lounges are at the C gates while Dnata is at the D gates.

if you get a chance though, definitely try out the BA lounge. Food is meh but it has an amazing bar and really nice ambience. Dnata lounge as mediocre bar and mediocre food so it's not my favourite place all around -- if that's the only lounge you can visit you are probably better off spending an extra half hour in Singapore city itself (the trip to the airport isn't long, immigration queues tend to be short, and security is at the gate vs. before immigration)

qantas has nice and ample shower suites

Thanks everyone. I'm doing a side trip to HK in the middle of a 4-month stint in Singapore, so don't need to spend any more time in the city. Will arrive at the airport in ample time to try both BA and QF before my 8pm flight.

I just used both the QF and BA.

I posted photos and comments on the BA forum. I have not posted photos or comments about QF.

Seems I have a different opinion of the 2 lounges than others here. :D
