Oh Dear Your wife was holding you back! Who was holding the baby? Sounds fabricated to me.

Great! Now the lounge will be pack with domestic AA travelers wanting to visit. The admirals lounge in terminal 4 is crap. Be interesting to see people complains when the lounge is overcrowed with these domestic travelers.

Sofitel runs the SYD & MEL Business & First lounges.  Do you know if they will be running the lounges in HKG, SIN and LAX? I hope they do, they do a great job!

Ive also been told that Sofitel staff manage the lounge, I understand that Qantas staff man the reception desk as you enter.
