IMHO All CX J and F lounges are great in HKG and I also quite like their BKK lounge which is good for an outstation. But then again the OW options in BKK are thin on the ground - have not tried QR there.

My top F lounges are:

QF F LAX SYD MEL
QR Al Safwa DOH
CX Pier and Wing
I think we should keep this thread on topic. This is supposed to be about AY status, not about lounges operated by OW carriers. Neither CCR, nor AS, nor QR BKK are accessible with AY status.

Any CX run lounge does it for me, hands down.

Do you really think so about their PEK lounge?

QR in BKK is also nice, but it's been a bit of a struggle for me to catch their opening hours, so I'd say it's often out of question.

ADDED: I remember reading in CX forum that HKG lounges changed their operator few months ago, after which the quality of e.g. The Pier dining went downhill. Haven't been there myself since then, though.
This can be confirmed, I was in HKG a few months ago, and there was a noticeable difference in food quality and taste after the change to Sodexo . I've been reading on that thread as well, and it appears that in recent weeks, the quality may have improved, though I can't personally comment on that.
