SYD/MEL/BNE-HNL in premium economy for $2,399 return isn't bad.

I'm not aware of any specific incentives for re-joining Qantas Club if you previously had a membership that lapsed a year ago. If your membership lapsed in the last few months, you can avoid paying the joining fee again if you purchase a membership renewal and back-date it to the date when your...

Correct. (Or at least, the SQ legs need to be booked on VA flight numbers - only possible through the VA website or a travel agent who knows what they're doing.)

I wonder if Qantas will be a bit "stricter" on these flights with offloading passengers who appear to have any sort of signs of illness or other possible issues upon boarding? All of the empty seats were in Economy.

Well this is a new one for me. If I search for Classic Reward seats from Perth to Melbourne for this coming Saturday on the Qantas website, there appears to be availability in both Y and J on QF780, the 16:55 departure at the bottom of this screen: But if I log into my QFF account, it only...

This is probably a good example of why Qantas has chosen to avoid flying over Russian airspace. There were 411 passengers on Sunday night's QF2. Arranging visas for all of them (plus the crew, I guess) is no simple task. But imagine if they'd had to divert to somewhere in Russia under the...

No, you don't necessarily have to book separate flights. Just that searching one-way (i.e. SYD-FRA and FRA-SYD separately) can be helpful if flights aren't available every day. I just searched SYD-FRA on 22 April 2026 and there are multiple options. Once you find an outbound journey you're...

I assume you're on the Virgin Atlantic website, have logged into your Flying Club account, and have selected "Search for reward flights" when doing your search from the home page? Maybe as a test you could see if you still get an error if you search for (say) Sydney to Ho Chi Minh City? Also...

Second time in 3 years: https://www.australianfrequentflyer.com.au/community/threads/qf1-from-sin-diversion-to-baku-azerbaijan-gyd.107599/ I guess, since this isn't Baku's first rodeo with having an A380 full of Aussies arriving unexpectedly, the process of getting visas/hotels for everyone...

Welcome to AFF :) Where exactly are you getting an error? If you can explain in a bit more detail how you're trying to search, we might be able help further. You shouldn't need to use the multi-city option.

Sometimes, when a relationship becomes too one-sided, it's time to move on.

Sounds like poor service from TK, but Qatar Gold is not actually eligible according to the T&Cs. If you're matching from a Oneworld airline to TK Gold, you need to have Oneworld Emerald status. QR Gold is Sapphire.

Another option coming soon: fly Vietnam Airlines from Ho Chi Minh City to Copenhagen from December 2025. https://www.aeroroutes.com/eng/250608-vnnw25cph

I thought the information on the Velocity website is pretty clear that if your review date is on/after 1 October, the new requirements apply?

More likely rebooked onto the following night's QF1 (or Emirates via DXB, at a stretch).

This is what the FAQ on the Velocity website says: If you're maintaining an existing tier, my understanding is that your review date is always 12 months after you upgraded into that tier or last renewed it. I could be wrong on this though.

If you upgrade to a higher status before 1 October 2025, the old requirements would apply as this resets the review date. But if renewing an existing status, my understanding is that the requirements that are in place on the actual review date would apply.

It's a shame to see this card being withdrawn - the net effect will be less competition in the market.

Yes indeed. Edited my post.
