AFAIK no priority club lounges in NZ. I'm not sure if I'll be around CHC on 3rd May - if I am and you are flying domestically on NZ (or perhaps QF) then I could assist. Please advise which airline you are flying.
DUD koru club is available to *G and is one of the best in the system.
I'm not sure NZ BNE international lounge (koru clubs are domestic) will be open that time of day - depends on whether NZ has flights in the evening (and certainly wont for the times listed on 10th May).

Kiwi, thanks for the pointer on the Priority Pass thingo - no worries, then we'll rock up a bit later to the airport, probably have a nice leisurely breakfast outside somewhere before saying goodbye to CHC.

We'll be trying out Pacific Blue ex-CHC to DUD for the first time!
(it was such a short flight and the timings were better than NZ's, plus it was way cheap - if you're around, very happy to swing by and say hi, though - but I doubt we'll get into the NZ or QF lounges)

Will look forward to the DUD Koru Club, also!

Regarding the BNE one, however, I remember taking SQ on BNE-SIN in mid-Dec '08 also on a red-eye flight and I did go to the only *G offering - NZ's Koru Club (even showered there whilst waiting).

I do recall though at that time the SKL was still being built/renovated.

For CHC-DUD, if I'm around I can guest you into QF lounge (with my status you don't need to be flying QF). Check back with me closer to the date.

In Dec 08, the BNE SKL was closed for renovations thus not surprising NZ lounge was open - SQ will have been paying NZ to have the lounge open for SQ flights. Now SQ lounge in BNE has reopened I'd be surprised if SQ pays NZ to keep the lounge open at a time when there are no NZ flights.

I'll be landing at SIN T3 around 23:30 and depart to HKG on UA the day after.
Not sure if I want to head into town or stay airside, but I'll be there if I decide to stay airside.

Apologies for my delayed reply. I was in meeting all day yesterday and last night the Hilton's net connection was erratic and just as I went to reply SQ went down for maintenance last night at 10pm. Today another day of meetings and now sitting in THai Lounge in KUL I finally have a moment to get on the net. I will PM you my details. Not sure what the go is with the weather.. big storms here. I am on the 21hrs BNE-SIN... so I have a somewhat tight turn around.. but hopefully we can meet.

That's fine, I'll be there - the rain *just* started falling here 1 minute ago (Raffles Place, Singapore)...

Looks set to become a very rainy long weekend in SIN.

The rain has stopped at the airport area

Thank you and the same. Next time I am through.. we should catch up again. that will be in June more than likely. Hope your run to SYD was good.

Gotta say can't remember on here was talking about the BTC Lamb Chops.. anyway ordered them on my run.. they were superb. Cant understand why I have never used BTC before.
