I was gold and it took me 2 weeks to get diamond. I chased them after 10 days and they told me they had no record. So i just thought i'd wait the 4 weeks. I was trying to get it done in time for a stay and luckily got processed the day I checked in two weeks after the application.

Nice report va777. Good to hear about the clubhouse and it seems that the hk staff know about their VA benefits. Your experience with Toll ground staff mirrors mine with VA in December where I got hassled with bags and seat issues. Any report on you hk wanderings?

I got an email offer for triple points for 1 month but that us all I've seen with this card.

Obviously housekeeping doesn't know about it. A couple of weeks ago i caught a staffer charging her phone on my charger at hsp when I walked in on her cleaning the room. She got a fright and ran out of the room and left her phone. Had to come knocking to ask for it back.

Just check you can fit your luggage in a car or cab.

Can't vouch for DL never having used J, but my experience of service in the last 12 months puts VA ahead of QF.

Hope they don't call you up like they did with a relative of mine a couple of months ago and say it was a mistake and offer PE instead. They got offered another carrier but decided to cancel altogether.

Theres another touristy trip you can do that takes in a temple, Aberdeen fishing village and Stanley markets and the peak tram. That's the "typical" tour. If you had an extra half day you can do the Buddha yourself via the cable car. Easy 15 min taxi from the airport, or 20 min from Kowloon...

Thanks for that clarification. I'd suggest your alliance staff need to work better at promoting this across your partners and your call centres as I have personally experienced trouble getting DL staff to recognize this. And when I queried your service centre, they tell me that i needed an...

Va66551 - That'd be virgin Australia code share with DL17. Probably not a VS code share?

Close to none unfortunately. Not for the last 2 years from memory. cba first time not that I can recall.

Thanks for the info.... I thought great... then looked and no CBA! What's going on there? Normally a bonus participant. Bugger :(

I think you have to do it 24+ hours beforehand. So I think you'll be out of luck. From memory 45k each person each way for the upgrade to the next level.

Can you point me to that info online? *panick*

Thanks Markis, looks pretty good for a dt.

I asked the same thing, but told no I'd have to ring ANZ. Still have to do that. Will report back when I find out.

My recent stay from 15-17 March during the GP was excellent. First stay as a diamond, having previously stayed in Sep as a gold. Booked a city view king, got a suite. Four water bottles, lounge, neuvo brekky, and Internet plus turndown. No personal note, but got the standard letter and...

For reference, I applied in Feb and got itjust in time for my first Hilton stay on feb 18. Took about 10 days to process. I tried to hurry them up given the impending stay but the call centre had no info on the promotion. They actually offered me some points instead (gladly taken) as they...

I'm seeing trouble in getting value from the card in the next year. Can't seem to book a room in Aus for more than around $200 as DaveB says. Used the lounge access a couple of times. But for me the attraction was the o/s spend with sign on bonus, rather than any other reason. No use of the...

Ouch! Think that's a bit rough. Cove, or Sir Cove as I reckon he could be anointed by some, is a legend around these parts. Always helpful, never critical... So suggest we watch those sorts of comments.
