Thanks to View from the Wing over at BoardingArea - Free Accor A|Club Top Tier Platinum Status - View from the WingFree upgrade to Platinum Status for all Accor members.*edit*Apparently the first link isn't working for some. The actual link for the promotion is here.

As others have commented, i'm sure there must have been big improvements otherwise they wouldn't be allowed to fly to the EU. It's going to take a bit more than just 4 years without crashing to build my confidence in them. If i can avoid travelling with them, i certainly would. Maybe in a...

My tags last week were priority not business...

Credit Card companies are a strange bunch! I'm self employed and got the Virgin High fligher card with a 10k limit, an additional Westpac Earth card with a 7.5k limit. But was declined by Woolies Everyday rewards card for the 1.5k or 2k limit i applied for. Go Figure! Virgin Money weren't too...

When they actually tag your bag it works really well! Mine wasn't tagged on my first flight and it took ages to come out. On the return leg it was tagged and was one of the first few out!

Lets hope the migration across goes smoothly and they don't completely screw it up!

Save for starting a new thread i'll just post in here.. :) I popped both my Virgin Australia and Business Class cherry in one hit last week and i must say i had a ball! Before i go any further take note of the following disclosures!: - I'm far from a QF or DJ fan boy. I don't fly very...

haha remind me to travel with a ruler next time to bring a conclusion to the great pancake/pikelette debate of 2011. On a side note, great idea - had them for breakfast last week when flying from PER. Very tasty :)

I have very fond memories of a mystery flight with Ansett back when i was young. First time on a plane, first time out of the state and spent the day in Sydney visiting the sights :) As i remember it we were notified the day before the flight what the destination was and flight time etc...

Howdy All, Quick question for those that have travelled in Virgins Business Class product. What's the go with the carry on baggage, the website is kinda generic. I was planning to take: 1 x Backpack with my laptop 1 x Camera bag - medium size (IE fits my SLR) I figure according to the...

I just rang the normal number 136789 and went through to the other options until I got a person

Another great trip report anat0l! As i'm about to embark on my first business class trip next week doing the PER - SYD Rtn, very useful to see exactly what to expect. I also pondered about the limo transfers being i'm also on a points + pay ticket, but when i called the Guest line this...

This is the bunch running it. Looks like they have quite a variety of cars, all of which look very nice! Brunel Worldwide Chauffeur Drive For transfers after the free period runs out - you earn 5 points per dollar spent. Not sure what their pricing is like but! *Edit* Does anyone wonder...

Brilliant service - and really saves quite a bit of money, let alone the hassle of getting people to drop you and pick you up from the airport. Interestingly i had the same issue today trying to book the limo transfers, spent ages on the call, about 25-30 minutes before i was transferred...

So does this mean that the price won't change on these routes since they're a guaranteed business class product already?

Thanks for the info - are you flying full paid fair, or using points? (either points, or points + pay)

Reading through the info there's no mention of status anywhere so don't believe thats the case. That said, i haven't had any information sent to me about my booking. I would have thought something in the booking information to call and organize would have been good.

Very interesting - last time looked it ended this week i think. For those that have used it, am i right in reading that its transfers to the airport, then from the airport to your destination with each segment? Or is it one way either to or from the airport per segment, or one per booking?

I'm flying points + pay, was a far better deal 13k in points + $350 for return. Where did you read about the limo transfer extension? i haven't heard anything about it, but very interested!

Thanks for the info all - picked out 3a on the way there and 2a on the way back :) Can't wait only one more week to go! Interesting about the menu - its the only thing i have an issue with in regards to J or F, as i'm quite a plain eater. Not really a fan of fancy caviar and the smoked fishes...
