MNL Lounge
 

Anyone hear when Cathay Pacific might open its lounge in Manila?

Dunno, but the PAGSS lounge is offered as an alternative now: https://www.cathaypacific.com/cx/en_...um-lounge.html

Passed by three weeks ago. So sad to see the furniture still covered in plastic. Closed and deserted. Meanwhile, they were delivering lampshades next door at the SQ KF lounge, along with a mop. SQ lounge has since reopened last week to service 4x/day MNL-SIN flights. CX still about 3-4x a week, down from 7-8x/ day. :(

Anyone have any updates on this lounge? I'm passing through in early November and would love to be able to visit here rather than the PAGSS lounge...

The furniture was covered in plastic when I passed by in July :(

Thank you; doesn't sound promising though.

Still wrapped in plastic today. Likely to remain that way until the schedule increases significantly I guess.

Just as an update...all the lights switched off tonight and deserted, although the furniture appears to still be present inside so hopefully not closed for good. No signs / notices indicating what's happening though.

My guess would be early 2023, since they will resume another flight by January. Making it 4 daily flights to HK (although I am not sure if they will close mid-day after CX930 departs)

Any news if this lounge will be open by January?

Flying over in Feb.... hope it would open by then. is there another OW lounge we could use now?

JL has a lounge in MNL but in a different terminal. Not familiar with MNL so don't know if that's an option. Other than that, no.

It's not an option. There are no airside connections between the widely separated terminals at this atrocity of an airport.

Seem to be up to at least 5 flights a day - what is going on!

And as Post 13 above inter terminal connectivity is chaotic verging on dangerous.

It wont work.

We're catching an 8am flight, no time for breakfast at hotel. Is a full breakfast served in the J cabin for the early morning MNL-HKG flight?
