Lounges in Singapore Airport
 
I will be flying out of Changi Airport with JAL. Anyone visited recently and can make any recommendations on lounges, I have read good things about Qantas, Qatar and BA.

Are there any First Class lounges that I can access with a BA GGL card, I have seen mention of a Qantas First Lounge:, is this within the the Qantas Singapore Lounge or are they one and the same lounge?

I have not been to Singapore for over 20 years, from what I understand I can check in at the Jewel at any time and then go directly to our terminal, is 2 hours enough to explore the Jewel?

I know little about the airport so any recommendations welcomed :)

Thanks in advance.

There is a QF F lounge but that can reach capacity quickly, especially before the cluster of QF flights departing SIN.
They will send you to the QF J lounge at that point and it will be a zoo over there. So, try to get into the f lounge ASAP.

There are 7 lounges in SIN for oneworld flyers:

Singapore Changi Airport (SIN) Lounges

My fav are QF, QR. If time allows, I stroll over to CX for some dim sum and soup noodles

Just note the Qatar lounge is Class of Service only - ie. You need to be in J or F.
And BA has its small Concorde Bar inside the lounge

BA and QF J are literally next door to each other.
QR is just behind the BA lounge but accessed via a different escalator.
And the QF F lounge is maybe 5min away on the other side of T1.

I did not know about the Concorde Bar, thanks. Flying J (with JAL) and GGL so assume I have access.

EDIT: Does access to the Concorde Bar make a difference to choice of lounge and edge it above QR and QS lounges?

I've enjoyed the Concorde "cupboard" on many a BA flight via SIN. Though usually as somewhere to dump my bag, do some emails in a quiet space and then go an lounge hop. Concur that the QF F lounge (even its J lounge) and QR Premium Lounge are better. If you're hungry, I don't recommend what's on offer in the Concorde Bar, beyond satay.

From photo archive: SIN QF F Lounge
 
It served all my fav food. The champagne was for photo-op only (non-drinker, I know what a pity!)

since the refurb late last year i thought the cupboard had gone and it was now a much bigger and better dining space? https://www.flyertalk.com/forum/brit...rly-dec-3.html

Thanks. I haven't been through SIN since then so hadn't realised it had changed. I might be in a minority preferring the previous, dimmer lighting, especially if seeking sanctuary between the arrival of BA11 and the departure of BA15. Though the brighter lighting is likely what customers have asked for.
