    The Velocity Status Run Master thread

    Hi All, I have been trying to find a cheap way to earn 127 SC before 27 Feb or 168 SC by 03 Mar to get to platinum but I am struggling. I need 3 more segments. I am based in MEL. I am happy to do it in economy or business. Preferably same day return or 1 night. Thanks for any advice.

    Most Obscure Commercial Airline That You have Flown

    For me I would say Air Costa in India. When I flew them they had a fleet of 2 E170 and 2 E190. I flew on the E170. They currently only have 2 E190 and I have read they might be closing down. edit: According to wikipedia they suspended operations 28 Feb 17.
