Rex Lounge (Terminal 3)Sydney Airport (SYD)

SYD · Terminal 3 · airside

Paid Entry

Rex's newer Sydney lounge, in T3 near its gates while T2 is rebuilt.

About this lounge

The Rex Lounge in Terminal 3 is the Rex lounge Sydney flyers should use right now. Rex opened it at Gate 16 in July 2026, because Rex departures moved to T3 during the T2 upgrade works, which run until late 2026. Rex flights board from Gate 14 and check in next to counters 35 to 36, so the lounge sits right by your departure. Entry is for Rex Lounge members (plus 1 guest), Rex Flyer Diamond members and Rex passengers who buy casual access for 2 hours with a same-day boarding pass. The offer matches the T2 lounge: continental breakfast until 10:00, brunch and supper snacks from 10:00, a bar from 15:00, and Wi-Fi. Rex lists hours of 05:30 to 19:00 on weekdays, 06:00 to 19:00 on Saturday and 08:00 to 19:00 on Sunday.
