Brisbane Qantasclub - Domestic Terminal

The Brisbane Domestic QantasClub is another vast lounge with six or seven separate areas, and yet despite it's size this QantasClub can get a bit hectic at times, with hundreds of people milling around, on the phone, or returning to the bar for yet another top up. The entrance is on the main concourse, at it's lefthand (Eastern) end, before the L shaped corner for the pier. At the desk where membership is checked, QantasClub is to the left, and Business is to the right. Past this point there is a desk where you check in or ammend your booking. Then there is a vast room with comfy seats, however since the Business Section was built there is no longer a good view of the apron. Then carry on in. The Qantas Brisbane Lounge hasn't changed much in about 20 years, except for the new Business lounge taking away half of the light and the views. There is also now a small children's room which has been added. Further in there is a raised area, with a view of the sky train which is quite pleasant. As you carry on round, the seats at the far end are often much quieter, with a great view of the carpark. Not many people venture this far round, except when it is very busy, which is typically 4 to 6pm.

Food

The food counter is beside the bar. When the lounge is busy, often a queue forms. There is a soup (which varies every day) and the usual bowls of salad, cheese and ham.

Bar

The bar is on the left - unlike Melbourne, the wine is kept right by the bar, where the barstaff can keep an eye on it. It features Qantas' favourite wines of the month, with 2 reds, 2 whites, and a sparkling wine.

The bar staff are however really helpful and will mix your preference of cocktails. Ahead of it is a long low dining table, with a magazine rack on the left of it. The magazines are in plastic covers, so you can't swipe them. Beyond this point are two rooms with TVs in both - one of which has Foxtel.

Bathrooms

In lounge, and quite swish.

Business Facilities

The Business Centre has 8 computers, most of which are quite fast and have a flat screen, but a very bad Cyberpatrol which blocks many innocent sites. Annoyingly, music often plays in this area.

Access

Although you can access the Domestic Brisbane Qantasclub with a domestic business class ticket, you are much better going to the new Business Class lounge next door. However, if you want to access a lounge and pay for it the Brisbane Qantas Club Lounge is available - but only to some passengers. Qantas used to sell lounge invites to everyone, but now emails invites to only some passengers, for $49AUD (or 7,000 Qantas Points). Otherwise you need to pay for Full Qantasclub membership, which can cost upwards of $1000 a year.
