Qantas Reopens Hong Kong International Lounge

The improved 2,000sqm lounge features an updated warmer colour palette and new furnishings by Australian designer David Caon, with a seating capacity for 290 customers overlooking panoramic views of Hong Kong’s famous Sky Bridge.

The original design of the lounge has been retained and finishes such as tiling and screens have been refreshed to create different zones within the lounge and a sense of privacy for customers.

Qantas Creative Director of Food, Beverage and Service Neil Perry has designed a menu of local dishes inspired by regional flavours and ingredients and said there was one key element from the previous offering that had to be included.

“Our customers absolutely loved the Yum Cha trolley so we are pleased to confirm we have fired up the dim sum steamers for its comeback, and will bring back the much loved char siu, Chinese barbeque pork dish.”

The large bar area will serve up a wide selection of premium Australian wines, beer and spirits along with Neil Perry mixologist designed cocktails such as the Chi Chi, made from dark rum with pineapple, lime and vanilla. Qantas’ Quench hydration station will be on offer with hot and cold beverages which support wellness while travelling.

Customers will have the flexibility to dine in the formal dining area, which features a communal table, or in the relaxed lounge seating area.
