Yes, its a oneworld benefit.

There is such a thing in MEL, some are not aware of this oneworld benefit.

Conversely, many QF Elite travellers at HKG will use the QF/BA "Hong Kong" lounge rather than the "The Wing/Pier" (which are far better IMO).

Re: SIN and HKG OW Lounges

The "shortly be ceasing" have been circulating for a while though. The current oil crisis probably isnt helping and QF having Y+ probably doesnt help either.

Just check around for F awards SYD-SIN and you will see plenty on BA...

I wouldn't worry too much about rumours.

If flights to SYD do cease then most likely you will be accommodated on a QF flight or worst case scenario onto the JQ flight.
