Are there two PAGSS lounges in MNL NAIA T1? I believe the other one is Miascor lounge, where QR used to have contract with.
Re: boarding. I think the staff now is now making some real attempt to group passengers by row group. It makes the boarding quite faster than before. Good job to dnata staff.

As an update, Qatar no longer uses the Admirals Club or Flagship Lounge out of Chicago (ORD). They now use the Air France/KLM lounge.
There are no showers or even bathrooms within this lounge. However, food and beverage selection is a big step up from the Admirals Club (never tried Flagship).

Search isn't throwing up any obvious results or I'm bad at searching but does anyone know if I can guest someone flying Qatar Economy into the Dubai lounge if I'm flying Business (marketed as First), I know they can't be guested into the proper business/first lounges in Doha but don't need to anyway.

wripro according to https://www.oneworld.com/ffp/lounge-access the "Bidvest Premier Lounge", but you probably should also be able to use the "British Airways Galleries First and Galleries Club Lounge"

The QR Lounge is being put together as we speak, and I'll try and talk to a colleague at CDG next week to get an update.
