    Thanks for the heads up CaviAck. I naively went and booked multiple W class seats and then read your post! So I've reached out to Velocity and got a call back today. Not promising (yet). They said yes indeed, no points or SCs on W class! I asked when it would be looked and she said they will...

    Hawaiian A330 Extra Comfort experience? Row 13 or 33 middle 4?

    Anyone experienced these seats and willing to offer any advice? Travelling in a party of 4 - only these two middle banks remain. Which is better - 13 in the front part of the cabin or 33 which seems separated from the rest of the cabin? Row 33 looks like it's separated somehow from row 34 - or...

    Anyone using this for Syd Water? How much time do I need to leave between payments of same amount? Keeps rejecting it. Min 5c payment so I'm incrementing, but whenever I come back to a previous amount it rejects it.

    Free Qantas Aquire Registration?

    The one that closed in November was not free, but pay the $89 fee, and get 10000 points on sign up and additional 10000 points after 100 points earn (by end of Feb). I assume they'll run something again soon.

    65min connection Intnl to Dom at BNE doable ?

    As a reference, Qantas' minimum allowable connection time is 90 mins, so I reckon it won't be enough. You will have to clear customs, checkin at the transfer desk and catch the bus between terminals. Easy enough to do but it'll Probably take 45-60 mins. However if they ticket it as one, then...

    I booked in November...now Jetsar requesting $2.60 to proceed with booking?

    I had a similar issue once but only at the airport checkin on a flight to Japan. Jetstar said I owed $540 and wanted that settled before I checked in. It ended up being a problem with their system.

    Is International Virgin Reward availability now worse that QANTAS?

    I've only just woken up to this issue. Going to book annual-ish end of year flight to LAX only to be dismayed with zero availability. For the past four years I've had no issue with redeeming 4x Syd-lax and back again. So I called the plat line and got a lady who was quite hesitant (waiting for a...

    New Flybuys redemption partner - Etihad Guest

    Anyone linked their Etihad and Flybuys accounts yet? I've got linked FB accounts, and linked the first FB account to Etihad Guest OK.
