    New A330's

    I think I've come up with a solution that meets lovestotravel's needs: 1. Withdraw all planes except for 1 - cant have any inconsistent planes 2. Close all lounges except for Sydney - cant have any inconsistent lounges 3. Fire all cabin crew except for 5 - cant have any inconsistent crew 4...

    Dealing with foreign customs when travelling?

    Only stories about nuding it up in a German sauna with the locals, but you probably want to hear stories that are the opposite of that!

    OOL Lounge

    Media launches are no place for customers, even high revenue customers like WP FF's. I have no issue with disappointment as the lack of FF launch, but to think that FF's should have been invited to a media launch is crazy.

    Plane Talking or Plane Biased?

    You know that IR is Industrial Relations, I think you mistook it for IT.

    Virgin Business Class Lottery - Pay for Business, get Premium Economy! Now 0 for 2.

    Re: Virgin Business Class Lottery - now 0 for 2. Pay for Business, get Premium Econom But if he only had saver on the first leg he can't move onto an earlier flight and be in J.

    Virgin "Business" from Bali to brisbane

    I didn't say they were the same, I said that I don't believe VA to be worse. I haven't been in Starclass, but looking at the review on Ausbt I'm glad I haven't. Seats look ****, poor leg room etc. Yes VA J on a 737 isn't great for 5+ hours, but I would rather it than J*. And the only point...

    Virgin "Business" from Bali to brisbane

    The problem is that there is no definition of Business Class. Plenty of Europe and Asian shorthaul Business class is similar to DJ/J* which adds to the confusion.

    Virgin "Business" from Bali to brisbane

    I think Bali and Thailand are those odd destinations where the length of flight is enough to justify wide body international class planes/service, but there isn't any money in it as the 'demographics' of pax to those destinations won't make the flights profitable. Maybe someone needs to build...

    Virgin "Business" from Bali to brisbane

    I honestly don't believe that DJ J is worse than J* Starclass. They use the same lounge in DPS, the food isn't anywhere near as good (excluding the hair issue for the OP) and unless I am mistaken J* use recliner J seats too.

    Awful Service from VA for Platinum Members

    I thought you already had, and then rebooked a few J flights when they were at discounted rates. The irony of claiming you are a loyal customer who switches to their competitor when things go wrong. 'I'm a loyal Bulldogs supporter unless they play badly then I'm going for another team until...

    Virgin "Business" from Bali to brisbane

    Firstly... Virgin ATLANTIC is not the same company as Virgin AUSTRALIA. Different company structure, different owners, different destinations, different planes, different seats. Now to your complaints: - Lounge Internet: Pretty poor to have to pay for Internet, but unless it Virgin Australia...

    Virgin "Business" from Bali to brisbane

    To be fair it is Bali... I wouldn't be sending my best planes there for the bogans to vomit and sweat on.

    Have You Ever Met A Gorgeous Qantas Flight Attendant?

    She is stunning, I can post links to some videos I found online if anyone else wants to see.

    Have You Ever Met A Gorgeous Qantas Flight Attendant?

    I've never seen a QF flight attendant within 20 years of my age... VA, SQ and CI most definitely... lucky my wife agreed with me and had a perve herself ;-)

    Flight oversold on virgin

    I'm sure if you bought 100,000+ flights like AMEX buys they would probably let you have it for that much.

    J Fares Syd to Honiara - 3x Y

    Yes but those airlines don't just offer long-haul J, they all have short-haul international J at similar prices to VA with a relatively poor J experience.

    J Fares Syd to Honiara - 3x Y

    Subjective... there are some pretty poor J seats going Intra-Europe and Intra-Asia that charge outrageous amounts though. Yield Management confuses me.

    J Fares Syd to Honiara - 3x Y

    I don't get it... 3x Y is pretty cheap for International J class. Good luck getting a QF/VA/SQ/EY/EK J seat for 3x their Y price.

    Were the fares a different cost?

    Second Sydney Airport

    The travel time for a lot of people in Sydney is already longer than flights to those destinations.
