It's a pretty nice lounge. I didn't see a separate F section, but no worries, this was fine to relax before my flight. Food selection was better than a lot...

One of the better Emirates lounges in the world for business class travel.

The food and refreshment options are superb, catering for all tastes and moods.

As all of the Emirates flights out of AKL leave in the latter part of the afternoon, I have only ever been exposed to the late afternoon and dinner options and I would presume this is all they do.

That being said, there is always plenty of room and seating available with the various dishes and drinks replenished as soon as one option gets low.

The shower and bathroom amenities are excellent.

Tip: If you are a Qantas member and want to fly Business class, book via the Qantas website but choose one of the Emirates code share flights so you get into the Emirates lounge and not the inferior Qantas business lounge which is poor by comparison.
