    VA 1M seat sale and 3x points

    If I could get beyond the spinning circle of death I'd actually book a flight. I've cleared all website history. Weirdly this seems to happen most often if I'm searching for a oneway flight ‍♀️

    Virgin Australia Golds lose LAX lounge access

    Thank you, exactly a month too early. I was considering NZ this year anyway, so will probably do that and looks like I'd still have access.

    Virgin Australia Golds lose LAX lounge access

    I'm still digesting this, but my initial reaction is relief. I'm a self funded traveler who has fought for the last 6 years to maintain SG. Travel is primarily to the USA to visit a grandchild. The extra luggage is welcome, as is priority check in, however, the main reason I've maintained...

    DL and VA systems integrated pretty well

    Distance is 4500 miles, earn will depend on fare class booked for both miles and SC. Do you have status with VA?

    DL and VA systems integrated pretty well

    Enter your Virgin FF # during the booking process. Only once in 8 years had trouble with points and SC's crediting and I'll assume that was because we took a voluntary bump. I love Delta, their extremely reasonable first class prices are all that keeps me gold

    The Velocity Status Run Master thread

    I've checked my Mother in at the priority lane but that was flying VA, and at OOL so no huge lines. What I have done for her at other airports is purchase a pass at one of the pay lounges

    "Something big is on the horizon" email from Velocity re a new 4 digit PIN

    ahhh, I don't think "we" will be the suckers, but I suspect there are a large amount of people who have points, but no hope of achieving high enough status to redeem for international upgrades, or know to book far enough in advance for reward seats. What about the people who got a FF card from...

    Whoops... what did you forget you had?

    A set of brass dividers, that I needed for a training exercise I was flying to. Another case of so much for HLO. It looked rather odd coming out on the conveyor in a clear plastic bag with an attached priority tag. October last year BNE/LAX/LAS I get to the rental car desk, trying to find...

    UpgradeMe pricing and success

    OOL-AKL 17 June, upgrade bid of $225 accepted at 71 hours. Looks like I'm currently the only one in business

    Delayed Velocity Points Posting

    My last monthly statement posted as normal, within 4 days, problem was it double posted. I got email notification from Velocity that it had happened and that they were working on fixing it. That took another 10 days

    To unpack or not unpack...

    Complete unpack if more than one night. Maybe I'm messy, but if I don't unpack the suitcase becomes such a rats nest that it needs emptying to repack anyway

    Using Satnav

    Thank you to the previous posters I purchased Sygic prior to leaving Australia. It's performed exceedingly well in the USA, I like I've been able to have settings in metric still, "turn in 500m" makes sense to me. It has also been fun to use on a cruise just to see where we are. Only issue...

    VA-DL Interline (separate PNR) + MCT in LAX?

    I've tried the flexible first seat on a layover time that allowed for delays, with the intention of changing to an earlier flight. Unfortunately it's never worked, as soon as the question "do you have checked bags?" gets answered in the affirmative, there is no flying ahead. I've still not...
