After arriving from Brisbane, I needed to make my way to Terminal 3 which is on the complete opposite side of the airport. There is a free terminal shuttle that operates every hour but wasn’t available the night I was there. So I got a Taxi which cost $20.

The Qantas Perth Business Lounge is the newest of the airline’s domestic offerings. The Brisbane lounge is the next to open in 2 weeks.

Guests in Business Class, Qantas & Emirates Platinum, and Oneworld Emeralds can access the lounge.

The lounge wasn’t too busy at 8:00 PM as there were only two flights departing at 10, so it was easy to get photos.

The lounge has a great amount of seating, enough for 350 passengers.

The lounge was designed by Woods Bagot and the colors, and the design was inspired by the Western Australia landscape.

The lounge has a lovely airy, natural feel which I love. It’s also well lit.

The lounge has a few stations which are basically bars. The lounge doesn’t actually have any self-serve drink options, including soft drinks.

Here are some of the wines available:

The main buffet area which is almost identical to the International Business lounges. There is quite a good selection of both hot and cold food available.

As you can see, the only available self-serve drinks available is water and milk for tea and coffee.

The main attraction in the lounge is the Pizza bar which is a brilliant concept, and the Pizza is always hot and fresh.

Just past the Pizza bar is the actual bar. There are staff always walking around asking if you need anything.

The lounge was very quiet until about 30 minutes before boarding which is a little surprising.

The lounge is quite big for a domestic facility and is 50% larger than what was there before. The lounge is 1365 square meters.

In the middle dining section, you’ll find a stand with a few types of reading material available.

Bottom Line

The Perth Business lounge is absolutely stunning. The wood finishings, lighting, and space is great. I’m excited to see how the new Brisbane one will compare.
