Well they do ..sometimes at 300 dollars or more in my routes ex Perth!! 🤭...so it's not really "free". 😕

I think you are supposed to use this with your calculator out.. https://www.velocityfrequentflyer.com/flying-status/mileage-calculator

You would think so yet somehow VA don't actually even give any food or comfort expectations on their website. I would be trying very hard if I were them to convince pax to choose VA. Sometimes they just shoot themselves in their own foot by concentrating on gimmick promotions and not the art of...

I will be watching over the next few months revenue tickets on the the PER-AKL sector especially as QF are commencing the route also early 26 I think. As VA Plat and never having ever been to AKL and North Island, thinking it could be a relatively good return on VA booking with Air New Zealand...

Actually I believe that shower curtains are now rather chic.....and making a come back...

Ah so the perspect is to follow.....and it's certainly positive that crew like it....for starters...

So we waited ages for.. .this?? Jeez....who is behind this idea?? Couldn't make it up....happy shower everyone.

Has anyone booked through VA an ANZ metal flight with a VA flight number in business and been able to select biz seats? I'm looking at Perth Auckland with Air New Zealand but to maximise VA points and SC.

Is short checking of bags from Australia to Hong Kong but requesting bag pick up in SIN en route and re checking the following day ok? Want the bag for the overnight stop at SIN and happy to re check in the following day.

However this was ticket by QR and operated by QR from what I read above. Try ticketed by VA and operated by QR. That I believe is the issue?

This is mine .after he has hit the champagne and riding in "his" convertible...🤭😁

I just don't understand VAs policy or who is con trolling the pricing on flights from Aus via DOH to Europe. I was pricing with date flexibility to UK and via google options came up using the same flights bookable via BA, QR VA and IB. Each was cheaper than VA and offered as BA Gold card holder...

Well my bid of 70 dollars (did not think it worthwhile going any higher) as I was already in Row 3 for DRW to PER last night was rejected!! Lol. I think I still won with 3b vacant and old style screen in front of me. 😁 By the way .did you know it's over 18 dollars for a pint of lager at DRW...

Is price important to you or are you stating you really want the VA status credits? But confused on you saying the longer option via AY and HEL yet you seem to be happy to spend hours in a DOH airport transit hotel? Always personally thought the VA price was very high via DOH but maybe it's come...

Poor really......isn't it.

A few from the Darwin aviation museum yesterday ...

True (but with BA I think the choice of rewards and destinations remain rather good). ....but you do get TPs for bought upgrades which the Op first referred. Tbh, not nearly as good as ofcourse the previous points allocation 😕.

Funny how though, everyone seems a little unsure....anyway no doubt someone surely has done it. I've just flown PER-DRW booked before the change and received for the "new period" a rather lovely (I say that now) 30 SC!!

Gosh SYD to NRT and a total of 35SC on ANA. I'm assuming down the back?

Gosh the lack of activity in this thread clearly highlights that VA status benefits outside VA is well.....not very much! 🤭😁
