I recall reading something a little while ago that VA let's platinums use their domestic lounge network as arrivals lounges. Just wanted to see if anyone in the AustBT universe had heard of this and if it was just platinums or business passengers too?
Yes I believe it's also extended to VA golds as well. I've done this numerous times and never had any issues. Not sure for business passengers without status though but I'd assume they'd still let you in!

Yep - scanning your Business boarding pass will get you into the Lounge on arrival, regardless of status.

Yeah I have never had any issues with Arrivals access as a VA Gold. Particularly useful while waiting for another flight on another Airline (Rex)

Thank you @New Mint and @Opto80.
Alas I don't have status with VA so it would only be for me if it were a business ticket.
