I'm sitting in Melbourne Qantas J lounge not feeling too impressed. Flying on QF9 to Dubai, I was hoping to check out both Qantas n Emirates J lounge.
My expectation of qantas lounge wasn't high in terms of food, and i certainly wasn't proven wrong. No warm food option except soup for dinner. So i thought i will go check out Emirates lounge as my previous experiences with Emirates lounge in other parts of the world were always positive and food offering always top notch.
I was surprised i was a REFUSED entry, as apparently I'm only entitled to use Qantas lounge as the flight is operated by Q. I questioned the receptionist a few times and she was insistent thats the way it works.
So begrudgingly i return to Q lounge, not that it's a bad place to hang out as it was spacious and with pretty good alcohol options, but the lack of warm food is puzzling.
Certainly makes me less likely to fly Q international in the future, esp if there are Code-shared flights operated by Emirates.
This is my first time flying Qantas J long distance, and unless things change in the future Im likely to shun it in the future.
Now hoping for better food on board their A380...
