Qantas Business Class Lounge LAX Reopens

Matthew Klint Posted onDecember 18, 2021December 18, 2021 10 Comments

After nearly two years, the Qantas business class lounge at Los Angeles International Airport (LAX), also known as the oneworld lounge, has reopened. The first class lounge will open in “early” 2022

Qantas Oneworld Business Class Lounge LAX Reopens

With Qantas restarting weekly Melbourne to Los Angeles service along with its daily Sydney to LA flight, the lounge has once again opened its doors. Currently the lounge is open daily from 3:00pm to 8:45pm.

Longhaul business class passengers as well as oneworld Sapphire and Emerald members can gain access before their flight. American Airlines elites can only gain access if they are traveling to Mexico City or on a longhaul international flights (for Latin America, that means South America, not Central).

Lounge passes are currently not accepted.

I last reviewed this lounge in 2019. You can read my full review here.

View From the Wing thinks the Star Alliance Lounge is better, but I greatly prefer the oneworld lounge for the wonderful coffee bar and Vittoria coffee from Australia made by an expert barista. The Star Alliance Lounge is much more beautiful, but the coffee is horrible (bitter and the machine is not great).

It is great to see this lounge reopen, hopefully not prematurely as new cases spike as the weather turns cold.

    What about those flying AA A321T domestic premium services that come with Flagship lounge access?

    Great news! Are we 100% certain the Mexico City/Central America rules still apply since Admiral’s Club and Flagship rules have changed?

      I’m not 100% sure. I wasn’t aware of the rule change at Admirals Club. Can you tell me more?

        MEX is good for AC but not Flagship. I thought that was the latest change.

        How about AS elites? Will they be allowed to access OW lounge when flying on AA to MEX?

        Pax in business class or with Platinum and up, or OWS or OWE get AC access on itineraries to Canada, Mexico, Caribbean, PR, and USVI. Central America, Mexico City, and Northern South America no longer get flagship, only Admiral’s Club.

    Can’t wait to return to Australia. Any idea when LAX Polaris lounge will reopen? Pre-pandemic I normally flew UA IAH-SYD and accessed the Polaris lounge in Houston. However, I’ve not yet tried the Polaris lounge at LAX and would like to.

      I believe SFO Polaris lounge is opening early January and LAX Polaris lounge is opening late January.

The new United Polaris Lounge at Washington Dulles The new United Polaris Lounge at Washington Dulles is the most beautiful of all Polaris Lounges. Stay tuned for a detailed look and many more photos on the blog tomorrow. Well done @united.
@malaysiaairlines just announced it would retire i @malaysiaairlines just announced it would retire its A380 fleet. While not surprising, it is sad to see the growing list of carriers retiring this superjumbo jet. On Malaysia Airlines, I flew the #A380 once from Kuala Lumpur (KUL) to London (LHR) and had the entire first class cabin to myself (full review on the blog). It was a beautiful flight that I will always remember.
