Qantas has not indicated where in BNE/SYD/MEL terminals the domestic business class lounges will be located. They may use the existing Chairmans Lounges or they may build new facilities. Time will tell.

There is plenty of roof on T3 in SYD that I'm sure they will utilize. I would expect also that they will keep with the current escalator arrangement in order to access it.
Now it would be lovely if they built this new facility in a way that gives plane spotters like myself a better view of runway ops.

It was sent out as a Program News email. Are you set to receive Program News emails from QF?

Sorry to bump this thread, but a quick question...
If travelling on UA from Sydney, is there any difficulty getting to the other side of the terminal to visit the QF F lounge? Do you have to exit one immigration departures area, and enter the other to get to the other lounges?

Note that long corridoor will shortly become a construction zone (and I wonder if the terminals will be temporarily disconnected)

Saw the expansion news last night on tv. It certainly seems as if T1 will be in for some major work and not all of it involving Macfields concessions. Probably taking this thread off topic so I will post a new thread relating to the expansion and relevant links.

Well, as we used to always says here. QF always looking at ways to cut WP's benefits. This year had been a quite year for me in terms on traveling. 360SC with no QF flights, am I on my way to hell back by end of this month. As I did not receive any letter/e-mail from QF, I'm sure I'm not in the free renew slot. But would they throw me right back to silver, that is the question I have for myself at the mean time.

The following quote now also appears next to the International Business Lounge Access for WPs on the QF website:
I hope this is an error because the E-Mail was saying there is still anytime access to international J lounges.
Must be travelling, not necessarily on Qantas, British Airways or Jetstar to access the lounge. From 1 April 2008, you must be travelling on the day with Qantas, Jetstar, British Airways or any of the other oneworld members airlines to access the lounge.
