Can anyone confirm the opening hours for the International Satellite lounges? Is it now 24 hours?
The website says 24 hours, but I trust FT more than the MH website!

Believe I read here at least the bar closes at night. Not sure the lounge is open 24/7 either. Someone else can maybe confirm definitively.

Hi All,

I think I know the answer to this but thought I’d check. I am OWE (BA Gold) and on saturday will be travelling to Dubai on emirates EK345 which is an MH codeshare MH4503 in Economy.

Will my OWE status get me access to the lounge? I don’t think so since it is booked on the EK number but wanted to check since am travelling with my boss and intend to guest him.

thanks.

Not according to the OW rules. Departing flights must be OW operated AND marketed. You can try, but I would "pre-wire" your boss that you might not be admitted due to the rules..

Does anyone knows if I am flying C Class on MH from KUL to Singapore - will I be able to use the international golden lounge at satelite building?
I am aware that MH flights to SIN usually use gates at the main terminal, hence the regional golden lounge (at main terminal) would probably be the one advised by check-in agents. However, I thought the international lounge would be a better one (less crowded with more seating/better food options?).

Yes you can use the Satellite Lounge as well. If you want a even more quieter experience, you can also use the Cathay Pacific Lounge as well, which is quiet after their flights have departed

It depends what time your flight to SIN departs. Between 930am to 12pm, the Satellite lounge is almost deserted.

And if your flight to SIN is the last one out, the regional lounge is also very quiet at time of the evening whereas the satellite lounge will be far more busy.

was there yesterday at 1130pm (using as arrival lounge) . front desk welcomed me and said lounge was 24h. was the only guest there (loads of staff) got myself a drink when a different staff came over looking smugly at her watch and told me lounge closes at midnight :rolleyes: didn't argue and just "ok-ied" her. saw a few other staff partaking from the buffet ... is it really that hard for MH to keep discipline ?

wasn't approached again about lounge closing but I left around 1230am since it wasn't the most comfortable experience having staff glancing at you every few minutes ... and not attempting to clear the table at all.

satellite lounge bar area was closed, but there was an ice bowl at the main buffet area with tiger, calsburg and 3 types of wines. no spirits.

It's definitely 24 hours. I've recently made a painful overnight at the F-side of satellite. The restaurant at F closes at 2300 hrs I was told, and the J side buffet closes later. The F restaurant doesn't reopen until 0630 am or so, thus breakfast can be had at the J lounge buffet in the early hours of the morning.

The nap area at F lounge is really quite dreadful, it isn't soundproof so you'll hear every conversation from the main area of the lounge. The seats aren't very suitable for sleeping and is better for lounging, quite a significant change from the sleeping rooms in the past.

Yes I miss the previous F sleeping rooms behind lockable doors - right now sleeping in these lounge chairs is uncomfortable and “exposed”!

Hi everyone,

Sorry if this has been discussed before, do you know if there is an area in the lounge (not the first wing) where I can have a call without disturbing everyone around (or being disturbed myself) ?

you can try the business centre just behind the entrance desks. It’s enclosed and I’ve never seen anyone use it. Just that I’m not sure if it still exists....
