To celebrate the recommencement of Trans-Tasman travel, and the reopening of the Plaza Premium Airport Lounges in Sydney and Brisbane on 31 May, LoungePair is offering a $10 credit for ChoiceCheapies members who create a new user account between now and midnight Wednesday.
Note that the re-opening of the Plaza Premium Lounge in Melbourne has been pushed back due to the lockdown, but will likely reopen in the coming month.
Plaza Premium will be offering 30% off the standard walk-up price for 2 hours of airport lounge access between now and August, which will drop the price to approximately AUD$38 when purchased directly online.
LoungePair guarantees that if you make a bid at NZD$39 for any of these lounges, you'll get access, so this means you'll effectively pay NZD$29 per person.
Note that the credit will show in your account, and can be redeemed towards your first successful bid for any lounge available via LoungePair, not just these three lounges.
It has no expiry as long as you have a user account
You'll want to keep an eye on the opening hours on the Plaza Premium website, but currently, this is what they propose (all in local time):
Brisbane
Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday 0630 – 1400; Sunday 0630 – 1200; Wednesday Close.
Melbourne
Monday to Sunday 0600 – 1300
Sydney
Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday 0600 – 2000; Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday 0600 – 1400
In other news, Plaza Premium has entered into a joint arrangement with Menzies Aviation, which will see two lounges in Christchurch and Queenstown respectively be re-branded. This means these lounges will also be purchasable at some point in the future.
