Will you still earn/retain Velocity status beyond 2025?

Oddly there are plenty of flying choices, not connected with Virgin!

For decades, I stuck within their pretty limited network and worked within it. Worked for us, and worked for Virgin.

Looking now at flying Qantas Business Class to Santiago Chile, as Qantas has a very cheap deal on.

Would you really, really (!) have looked at a Virgin partner airline for the convoluted flights needed to get to Santiago?

Will be intersting to see VA's half yearly results on Friday to see if any of this matters. As someone who travels both airlines - Qantas is killing it at the moment.

Despite my expectation of dropping from WP to SG for the coming year (at the time of the poll), it looks like I may just scrape by to retain WP for the coming year. However, my bookings with VA have been significantly less this year so far compared to last year.

I also responded that I would drop from plat to gold, yet my next review date is in August and I'm already well past half the required credits thanks to some Qatar/VA flights and Air NZ in J to Auckland.
So despite my response, it appears I was very wrong, and I'm honestly surprised. At this rate I'll be gifting gold by August.
