The Westpac card with the same service has since ended, so I found the below alternative.

What is Flight Delay Pass?
You register your flight with the Mastercard Flight Delay Pass service before travelling. If the airline announces a delay that meets or exceeds 120 minutes, you will receive a LoungeKey™ pass that provides access to a lounge at the airport where you are delayed. LoungeKey™ gives you access to a network of over 1,500+ of airport lounges worldwide. The service is available to the main passenger (cardholder) and up to 1 travel companion(s) on the same flight.
Regarding children: Each individual lounge has its own policies on the admission of children. To check the policies of a specific lounge, please visit https://loungefinder.loungekey.com/Pass and to read the Flight Delay Pass FAQ click here.

How to get access
You need a Cash Passport Platinum Mastercard, you'll need to add $100 to the card( fee free with BPAY) to order it, according to the FAQ, you can login and withdraw this once you receive the card, alternatively just use it as a normal card. Once you have received your card, you then register your flight via this link: https://flightdelaypass.mastercard.com , if your flight has a delay of 2 hours+ within 24hrs of depature, you will automatically be sent access to the airport lounge (over 1,000 airport lounges & free food included). If flight is canceled, no lounge pass is granted.

    Yep, can just register all your flights using this card number until it expires.

      Is it another 50c after it expires?

        I'd assume you just order another, if they even still do the deal in 2+ years.

  I just did a Bpay payment for it and there is no fee with Bpay btw

  • 

    CodeXD on 02/12/2024 - 20:03

    I just understood what you mean when trying to get this card haha

    When it asks to load the $100 onto the card (default is debit card), click on bpay tab.

    Thank you, ordered.

    EDIT: you cannot use zip pay to bpay this card haha

      yeah, wasn't specific enough of me, my bad, sorry.

      had some flights coming up and thought i'd get it before we leave so i was in a hurry to get 2 cards at the time.

      Also no fee with bank transfer BTW, so it's only 0.5% for debit card payment.

      My 28D is still free for me, and even used the flight delay pass earlier this year. Worked perfectly well. EasyJet cancelled our flight out Milan, and I used it at Manchester the next day when repositioning. Great lounge and a couple of hours away from the hordes.

  You need Australian passport or drivers license to register. Sadly, I have neither of them

  I used the 28 degrees "Lounge Key" service five days ago in Bangkok when my Jetstar flight was delayed by five hours and it was an absolute lifesaver. I got to choose a first class lounge out of 20 choices and the SMS was sent to me immediately when the airline registered that it was delayed. The food was great, unlimited cocktails, and a 15 minute time massage. It was awesome.

  Was tying to get this through st.George, however it is still “ New Worldwide Wallet travel cards are currently unavailable. We apologise for any inconvenience.”
  Might need to try Bendigo.

    I know the description talks about getting it from Bendigo, but the image link takes you right to Mastercard direct and you can get it from there

  This service is amazing! If you're travelling with friends/family, you can also register them as well as yourself. On the way back from Europe with 3 other mates, we copped a big delay for one of our flights - sure enough four lounge passes arrive in my inbox shortly afterwards. We saved them up and used them in Singapore to grab a nice dinner and shower - made the trip so much less exhausting!

    randomdude on 03/12/2024 - 13:33

    One thing I noticed was was that the FAQ/Help says "Lounge Pass for you (cardholder) and 1 travel companion(s)"

    Now that plural text is confusing. I know with 28 degrees I was able to register a family of four (2 adults 2 kids) on one card and I got four lounge passes issued.

    For this one, just to be sure I'll get two cards (one for me and one for wife) and I'll just register all flights on both cards and one child each.

    If it lets me add all 4 travellers to one card - well then I might just be sneaky and register all of us on both cards and use the extra passes later :)

      3:
      Can more than one person receive the complimentary airport lounge access?

      Yes, the service is available to the main passenger (cardholder) and a travel companion on the same flight

      1:
      Who is eligible for this benefit?

      Flight Delay Pass is provided to selected Mastercard Prepaid Platinum Travel cardholders in Asia Pacific. The benefit is available to the main passenger (cardholder) and an accompanying passenger

      8:
      If I register myself and a travel companion, can my travel companion utilise the benefit without me being physically present at the lounge?

      All passes will be sent to you, you may then choose to send it to your registered travel companion(s), who will be able to access the lounge, with or without your physical presence, as long as they have the lounge pass with them
