Lounge Access in Singapore

Wonder what my chances are of getting Lounge access in Singapore given that I am arriving at 3AM on QF31 then catching a Jetstar Asia flight at noon, I dont like my chances, then again I am flying on a QF operated service on that day, I will have flown it by that time of course. Is the lounge open at 3AM in case I just want a post flight shower??

The lounge opens at 2:30am, so it looks like you're in luck.

As far as I can work out, paid QP members flying Jetstar can access the lounges so I don't see why Gold members can't. There could be some wierd policy somewhere though... :?

According to this: Qantas Frequent Flyers flying Jetstar Asia, NO:
Quote:
Lounge access is not available to Qantas Club members travelling on Jetstar Asia, and Qantas Frequent Flyer points or Status credits can not be earned when flying with them.
WP's would have access for sure, and as an SG you may be able to talk your way in.

For the transit of QF31 to London, QF often just uses the F lounge rather than opening both F and J. They invite J passengers and Gold/Sapphire members to use the F lounge.

However, they are likely to close up again after QF31 departs since there are no more flights for some time.

Lounge access no problem - Plat

I am QF Plat.
On March 7, after a day in Singapore I left flying "Jet Airways" Singapore to Chennai (Madras) departing at 9:15am.
I had no problems getting into the QF/BA Business lounge (effectively the Qantas Club) at Singapore but sadly the First lounge was closed.
Because there were no scheduled BA/QF flights for some hours, the Business Lounge was deserted, I was the only person there.

Only disadvantage is that flying a non One World Partner, there were no boarding calls.

BTW... Jet Airways are very very good.
Better than QF in Economy, both Domestic and International.
(this is not JetStar). They have new 737-800s, great catering and really attentive staff.

Agree with Luckydog, Jet Airways is a great flight.

Kingfisher is another good airline flying Indian domestic sector - complete with personal entertainment in economy.
