Melbourne Airport - AustraliaMelbourne Airport in Australia is a massive airport forever expanding. It has everything you could want in an airport and more. Here I have listed only the items that suit our needs.
Private Airline LoungesFor International visitors all the lounges are together on the first floor in the international terminal known as T2. You need to go through customs then walk down the hallway and right at the end of the concourse are all the lounges.International Lounges 
The last two lounges are situated above the other lounges. All you need to do is take the escalators or elevator up to the next level. Here you will be above Gates 9 and 11.
Domestic visitors can find the lounges for Qantas in T1 which is used exclusively by Qantas and its subsidiary Jetstar. In T3 you will find The Blue Room which is the lounge for Virgin Blue situated in the domestic arrivals area.
