CX. Great lounge.
CX is leaps ahead of the JL and WY when it comes to design, comfort and food IMO.
Should you fly business and have access to the QR lounge, I'd still pick Cathay.

If we (consider the CX lounge to be far superior and) remove the CX lounge from consideration, how would you guys rate the remaining OW J-accessible lounges?
namely JL, QR & WY

Chirping into this thread - greetings to everyone!If we (consider the CX lounge to be far superior and) remove the CX lounge from consideration, how would you guys rate the remaining OW J-accessible lounges?
namely JL, QR & WY
JL is a "don't bother."
I was in WY once but don't remember. It used to be considered the best Priority Pass option, but is no longer PP accessible.
QR is the best overall in my opinion, but it is business only. The range of food and bathroom/shower facilities are particularly good.
CX is the second best overall but is the most comfortable for just relaxing and lighter meals. Unless the noodle bar is interesting to you then it would of course rank higher in the food category.
JL is the third best but is really just in place for its own flights and I see no reason to go there if you can go to CX unless you want some Japanese dishes such as Katsu Curry. Assuming they still have it.
WY is fine but don’t really care for it. The food is acceptable and it is an ok enough space. It was good for a PP lounge but as it relates to other OW lounges it is last in my opinion. It has a shower, but a pretty miserable experience compared to other lounge shower facilities in my experience. However, there are worse places to be camped out while waiting for your flights.

QR lounge will also move towards the end of year from Concourse D to Sat-1 which is inaccessible unless departing Sat-1.
The EK lounge has already moved (which impacts QF FFs due to their separate partnership)

Never had the chance to try the JL lounge because my flight time never overlapped with their hours. I've been to the CX lounge many times, but I also like to go to the WY lounge for a change of flavour. I recall there are maybe 2 daybeds there and a shower room, which CX doesn't have. The 2 lounges are quite close to each other anyway.
