    Qantas and Jetstar to launch new Vanuatu routes (Approved by IASC as of July 2024)

    Bit of an extra cost though with the hotel add on?

    Will you still earn/retain Velocity status beyond 2025?

    Yes for sure. If also VA regulars lose out on say lounge access (we all know other methods are available to get) but find that QF are price competitive and also give you a meal on board in the price of the ticket it will change attitudes.

    VARA A320/737-700 Replacement

    True...well until there is no VARA crew to fly the aircraft.

    VARA A320/737-700 Replacement

    Well yes ..naturally! Ofcourse it will be subject to yet another review and in 5 years maybe.

    New Qantas route - Perth to Paris from July 2024

    The taxi voucher ...well that is interesting they would not allow it for T1. Kinda sums up QF. Hopeless....just like Perth airport! I'm sure you are on SQ now and having a good flight. 1742860183 Probably only when their "bed partners" refuse QF pax!! 🤭

    Virgin Australia UpgradeMe pricing and success

    Yes you are correct! It's ADL from PER that I have popped in 60 dollars (min 55). It's a min of 200 for MEL. Should I? I only see 2 seats on expert flyer being free. Maybe just stick and save my money. Currently in 3A.

    Virgin Australia UpgradeMe pricing and success

    Why give a miss? 60 dollars say seems worthy. I've just said 60 dollars from PER to MEL so doubt that will work....but who knows. ,🤔🤭

    What plane is this at PER

    That A400M is on its way to Avalon. Came in from Singapore. The Germans also went last time to Avalon and took a month roaming around with funky routing.

    The Velocity Status Run Master thread

    I've decided and have just booked PER to NADI and back via BNE in "biz". . Would have preferred via SYD as I think it would have accrued a few more status points but it was more expensive (at least of yesterday). Never been to Fiji so thinking 3 days there at a nice resort will also be rather...

    Actually yes it could have been ADL as I have used both in recent times.

    Out of interest can you not use the VA domestic lounge at BNE for international? I'm sure I was in that lounge flying to PER and they had QR pax in the lounge and made an announcement for its departure...

    Melbourne SkyBus gone up again

    Not forgetting that if you book in advance you can get and do often, Heathrow express to Paddington in relative comfort for as little as Five pounds! Amazing really.

    Melbourne SkyBus gone up again

    I do chuckle sometimes in the UK where for example flights between Gatwick and Spain are often cheaper for a return journey than 3 days car parking. Never mind the cost of rail travel to and from LGW. I guess no matter where you are...airport charges, getting to and from are far in excess of...

    That though was probably easy enough with what 55 credits to 110 coast to coast and also more when doing connections. Wonder just how easy it is under the "new enhanced" system to achieve the same. Highly unlikely for most I suspect!

    CM cleaning economy? Industrial action?

    .🤭🤪 1742376358 Yeah the 20 mins when I want a drink and a snack bar for my 1,500 dollar flight across Australia. One wonders what the reaction would be if I actually did "fend for myself" in the front galley ..happy to trial it....🤭🤪

    Which is the best airline to fly from Australia to Bali?

    I agree. Never been to Bali before and certainly did consider ex PER via SIN but in truth from PER flight can be done in not much over 3 hours and with the Jetstar max price still only around 600 dollars return kind of reckon it's worth a pop. It will.be first time on Jetstar also!! 🤭
