    Virgin Australia Business Class - Meals, Menus & Service

    Enjoyable flavours, the one I had though hadn’t had a chance to fully defrost though so was still a little icy in the centre!

    Virgin Australia Business Class - Meals, Menus & Service

    Couple of meals over the past few weeks Carrot Cake Bircher - CBR-BNE Mushroom Bruschetta - BNE-MEL Corn Fritters - ADL-BNE Really loved the heirloom tomatoes with the corn fritters. Just wish they could warm the pastries - would be so much more enjoyable.

    WP Unsolicited J Upgrades

    I actually had this happen to me a few weeks ago on a BNE-MEL for the first time. I was on a reward Y fare and had myself in row 5. During boarding I was paged and upgraded to row 2. Wasn't given the catering spiel but was served last. My original seat remained empty and J was full with me...

    Alaska Mileage Plan Award Charts

    How can you get over to Perth? Wouldn't you need to use more than AS + FJ to get there?

    Most efficient way to get to Europe with Velocity

    Yep around 580k points will give you both Etihad and Singapore as options. Etihad comes with a fairly hefty carrier surcharge though.

    VA Temporarily reducing LAX flights mid 2020

    Yep I had a flight affected by this. BNE-LAX is now BNE-SYD-LAX. System changed it automatically but I did have to call to get an updated itinerary sent through as it also wiped my ability to view the details fully online.

    Hawaiian Reward seats

    Yep have been searching in D class. Thanks - guess I’ll just keep being patient or end up going with a VA/DL mix instead.

    Hawaiian Reward seats

    Fairly flexible, preference would be BNE-LAS but BNE/SYD - LAX/LAS/SFO would all work. Economy is out there, but no business as far as I can see. Surely I haven’t missed it already? Been checking fairly thoroughly and have EF alerts set up. Perhaps they release availability in blocks.

    Hawaiian Reward seats

    Availability seems to have dried up for partners now. Was hoping to snag 2 J seats during August sometime but not seeing anything !!
