Departing from Brisbane: Elegant time before heading to Taipei ✈️ Singapore Airlines & Air New Zealand VIP lounge experience
#5月好去处2025
After finishing my trip to Australia, I was ready to fly directly from Brisbane International Airport (BNE) to Taipei. This time I took a direct flight of EVA Air. After arriving at the airport, I successfully completed the check-in and exit procedures. I also took advantage of the free time before boarding to experience the VIP lounges of Air New Zealand and Singapore Airlines, which made the entire trip back to Taiwan a comfortable start.

🛫 Flight process: Brisbane Airport exit is simple and smooth
The EVA Air counter is about the center right of the exit floor. The check-in process is very fast and the ground staff is very friendly. After checking in the luggage, you can go to security and exit customs. The overall process takes about 15 to 20 minutes, which is very smooth compared to many large airports.
The Brisbane International Terminal is not very large, but the lighting is bright, and it is quite pleasant to go shopping in duty-free shops or have a cup of coffee. Since we had plenty of time before boarding, we went to the VIP lounge to take a short break.

🌟 First stop: Air New Zealand Lounge - bright and comfortable, with many food options
This VIP lounge is located on the mezzanine above the boarding floor (you can go upstairs through the automatic elevator). As soon as you walk in, you can feel the natural style design of Air New Zealand. The space is spacious and the seats are diverse. Whether you want to eat, use a laptop, or just relax, you can find a suitable corner. The overall atmosphere is relaxed and open, which is a very suitable place to relax at the airport in advance.

✨ Second stop: Singapore Airlines SilverKris Lounge - small and exquisite, quiet and calm
Then go to the Singapore Airlines SilverKris Lounge on the same floor. The space is a little smaller than that of Air New Zealand, but the style is very elegant and low-key. It is a relatively quiet and private VIP lounge. The seats are business-style, with large spacing and soft lighting, which is very suitable for people who want to read or work quietly.
Food and Beverage:
• Provides Southeast Asian style hot food options, such as fried noodles, fried rice, and snacks
• Drink options include coffee, red and white wine, and soda
• The atmosphere is more like a small boutique VIP lounge, and the service quality is meticulous
This is suitable for a short break, not too noisy, and is a good place to clear your mind before boarding.

📝 Summary: Comfortable departure, perfect ending
This time I took EVA Air back to Taiwan from Brisbane. Whether it is the airport departure efficiency or the relaxing atmosphere brought by the two VIP lounges, the whole journey has a high-quality start.
Air New Zealand Lounge is suitable for relaxing meals and enjoying the sun, while Singapore Airlines Lounge is like a quiet corner in the city.
If you are departing from Brisbane in the future, you might as well arrive at the airport early to enjoy these facilities and make the "return" a part of your journey worth looking forward to.
