    Virgin Australia flights to Doha

    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...

    Virgin Australia and Air NZ form new partnership

    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...

    Virgin Australia and Air NZ form new partnership

    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.

    Virgin Australia flights to Doha

    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?

    Virgin Australia flights to Doha

    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...

    Virgin Australia UpgradeMe pricing and success

    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...

    Virgin Australia flights to Doha

    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...

    Velocity platinum

    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 😕.

    The Velocity Status Run Master thread

    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!!

    How to maximise Virgin Australia status with other airlines/hotels etc

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