Flying Kangaroo is designing a dedicated Qantas precinct at PER

Qantas Airways also known as the Flying Kangaroo has begun developing a Domestic Business Lounge at Perth Airport (PER). This lounge will be exclusively available for business class travelers, Platinum and Platinum One cardholders. The lounge will be open to Oneworld Emerald members of British Airways and Cathay Pacific. It will be constructed at the south-east corner of Terminal 4 allowing easy access of Terminal 3 and 4 to the passengers of Qantas, QantasLink, Jetstar and Network Aviation subsidiary.

The lounge will cover an area of 1,365 square meters with a capacity for 350 customers. It will offer quality service, modern facilities and luxuries. The Business Lounge will be designed in a manner that it offers conference and meeting facilities in a dedicated work zone. A dining area will feature an all-day coffee shop and a special “dish of the day”. A variety of books, journals and newspapers, wireless internet, buffet and full service bar will also be included in the standard facilities of the lounge.

Helen Gray, Qantas Head of Domestic Product and service stated that the lounge will open in late 2015 with contemporary design, drawing some elements of the lounges in Singapore and Hong Kong. The Perth Business Lounge will adorn the colors and effects of Perth’s landscape. Architect, Woods Bagot is designing the Lounge who has also designed the domestic and international terminals at PER as well as Los Angeles Business Lounge.

The downstairs extension of Qantas club will be closed after this Lounge is ready to seat more passengers. This domestic lounge will increase the existing lounge capacity of Perth by 30%. Qantas Airways is also planning to redesign the international and domestic lounges in Brisbane next year. The airline is also considering the thought of closing the international first class lounge and creating an integrated lounge.
