Qantas, Cathay Pacific and British Airways have finished a substantial expansion of the Oneworld Business Lounge in the Tom Bradley International Terminal at Los Angeles International Airport. The lounge is managed by Qantas.

The project increased seating capacity in the lounge from 400 to 600; tripled its total floor space; increased the number of shower suites from nine to 16; added six workstations equipped with iMacs; installed a dedicated dining area, a new cocktail bar and a Californian food cart; and put in a second buffet line with a make-your-own juice bar, hot dishes, salads, snacks and desserts.
