Hi Team, need some input please. I have booked a OWCA SIN-HND-LAX-SYD-CGK-CMB-CDG-LHR-AMS-HEL-HKG-SIN. Five stopovers are LAX, SYD, CGK, CDG, HEL. I completed the first part (SIN-HND-LAX-SYD) in April 23 and would be commencing the second part in September 23 (SYD-CGK etc). Availability in J...

I just received the 3rd month’s 25k bonus points for the virgin flyer card today. And also received the 30k bonus points at the same time. Promotion was activated before the 3rd statement was generated.

Unfortunately I am in the same boat, but I am going to activate it anyway as the last two lots of 25,000 points may trigger the offer. Keen to hear from people's experience from the previous offer in 2022. Virgin cards provide the bonus spread across the first four months, and wonder whether...

I agree with this, I had an issue with a cancelled UL flight in a OWCA (see previous post). I emailed the new escalation team and also called qantas few times over the last 8 days nothing happened. Yesterday I sent a message via twitter and few hours later I was booked on the replacement UL...

Thank you @Mr H. I called them again, this time got Fiji (I think). They saw what the previous agent had done, but said ticketing raised an error which is now resolved (they waited until I called again to fix the error!). Again was told to wait 24-48 hrs, I insisted that I am happy to wait he...

I am in the same boat as you. probably worse as the cancelled flight is with Sri Lankan between Colombo and Paris. Qantas don't even fly this route to open award seats. I am hoping Qantas liaise with Sri Lankan to open three J seats on the new flight. Good Luck.

I contacted Qantas and the call was answered quickly. I think I got to the Manila call centre and they put me on hold for a few mins and said it will be ticketed in 24-48 hrs. I think they were fobbing me off, when I told her that the replacement flight doesn't have three reward seats she said I...

Hi Brains-trust, I have a Qantas OWCA booked in Dec 2022. I was checking Qantas bookings page yesterday and noticed that UL563 (Colombo to Paris) has been cancelled and the booking system proposed UL501 instead for travel in September 2023. I accepted the change on the Qantas website, but I have...

Just an update, received my points two days ago (25k bonus for month #1 + 2k regular points).. Strange this is after I was told everything should come in the February points credit.

Hi all, I applied for this card in Dec 2022 and the first statement was generated on 3 Jan 2023. I still haven't received the points from this statement which shows the 25k bonus + another 2k of points for the spend. I have contacted Virgin and they are saying that there was a system issue and I...

thanks @SydneySwan. Are the confirmed transactions posted on the same day for both of you? My only transaction is dated 28 Dec, hope the other two get posted soon.

Hi all, I made a OWCA for 2 adults + 1 child on 22 Dec which showed the taxes in SGD as we are commencing the journey from SIN. Taxes were shown as SGD $3894.70 for the three of us. When the booking was made online, there was a pending amount of AUD 4427.18 immediately shown on my card. Today I...

Thank you @kangarooflyer88. Sorry yes I am based in Australia. Appreciate the comprehensive response.

Hey guys, I am a newbie here. Am I right to assume the easiest way to get a lot of aeroplane points is to buy them right? Currently the promotion is only 20% discount and I think I have seen better offers in the past. I was excited to find out that MEL-SIN only cost 45k + taxes in J (Bamboo +...

Hi everyone, I just received a flight change notification by email in relation to a OWCA I have booked to commence in April 2023. The only BA flight has come forward by 5 mins, no big deal as it has no impact to other flights. Should I accept the change by clicking the "Review and Accept" button...
