Qantas debuted an extension onto its Brisbane International Airport lounge. The new addition adds a third floor and increases the space by 25 percent.

The new floor opens every morning 7:30–11:00 a.m., with seating for 100 people. The airline hopes to accommodate more passengers during the busiest time for international flights.

The lounge serves a hot and cold buffet on the ground and main floors. There’s also a “breakfast hatch” on the mezzanine level with á la carte food.

Seasonal menus come from Neil Perry, creative director of food, beverage and service, Qantas, with a focus on local Queensland produce. There’s a bar on the main level and the new ground level, offering craft beer, wine and Vittoria coffee.

The lounge also features a business center, televisions and shower suites with ASPAR by Aurora products.

Vanessa Hudson, chief customer officer, Qantas, said, “With the majority of our international flights from Brisbane departing in the morning, the expanded space will give our customers a more relaxed lounge experience. We’ve taken over previously underutilized airport space to create an additional lounge area that accommodates more customers with comfortable seats, great food and given we go through five kilograms of coffee a day, a stylish barista-station with the latest coffeemaking technology.

“Queensland has always been one of our most important markets. We operate almost 60 direct international flights from Brisbane every week, including to Los Angeles and Hong Kong on the 787 Dreamliner.”
