    Row 3

    It is only one, maybe two aircraft. This will answer your question: http://www.australianfrequentflyer.com.au/community/virgin-australia-velocity/row-3-v-paid-exit-66081-3.html#post1197717 Also, have you considered being less precious? The row 3 on that plane still wasn't too bad at all. I...

    What's the furthest you've flown without telling your 'better half'?

    *** reaches for popcorn *** This will be interesting - I wonder how many fresh "throwaway" accounts will be created for commenting on this thread.... Edit: I guess I will share mine (the one I'm willing to share) - Work trip to the hunter valley (legitimately :( ) on Valentine's day...

    Making an excuse to go on an indirect routing

    100% promise they won't care. 110% promise if you are buying a residence fare from them!! Say I want this flight via this port and you're good to go. Little tip is that you want to be on what is called a 'through fare' as in you buy your ticket from BNE to AUH but you will be routed BNE -...

    Don't miss out on great fares to Sydney!

    Urgh I get this all the time even if I have made a booking!!! Our corp travel system is amazing (I can see so much more info there) but to use that I have to log in, create a draft trip, cost centres ETC. So normally my first port of call is the VA website if I want to know something really...

    15% Bonus Pts (to 31 May) and 15% off Reward Seats (to 30 June)

    Just waiting until this months points hit my CBA account (12th) and then making the transfer. Nowhere near the balances others are sitting on but enough to get what I want :) (I did do a trf 11 months ago so accrued more than enough in just a year!) I do wonder if this means they won't be...

    Getting toward the front of the plane

    Was it a flight with a code share? I was flying to meet someone in CNS. I was flying SYD - CNS as gold and got 3C to help me nurse the hangover from hell. She has just come SIN - BNE and was put in 3A at time of check in at SIN on a SQ ticket for her BNE - CNS leg. Her boarding pass was an SQ...

    BNE lounge to double, BNE/MEL to get premium entry or exit

    Checked it out today - was still in zombie mode and the sun wasn't up yet so can't comment on the natural light. The new area is nice - it is just another airport lounge. Pretty good though! Getting towards a MEL level (I mean, think of the poor kids in ADL) they have closed the area that...

    VA codeshare options

    Yeah it will be in the ticketing rules - its like when VA BNE-CNS has a SQ code share, even though it might pop up in a fare display it is only allowed to ticketed with a connecting SQ flight.

    Virgin Aust Intl for Virgin Australia

    There is a thread somewhere here about this but not sure where. They are a just the difference between the planes that travel internationally and just domesticity What that means to you and me is the VA International planes have the raft in the ceiling and in the overhead locker on the ABC...

    J Seating BNE to DPS

    /FlammeSuitOn As a diehard VA loyal, IMO, unless you are made of money and desperate for SC I would check out JQ Starclass on the 787 :) Both JQ and VA are what you would call Domestic J Sense > Money I hear the GA product out of SYD is good but I've never personally been on it...

    Single male seating

    Yep that's the price we pay for status and shadows - the lounge angles can be alright and once you know a few FA's it's pretty good. But backpackers bars near my hotels are still the place to beat. 21/Plat isn't bad - I thought I was unique being 23/Gold!

    Air Berlin status match

    Has anyone been successful with a VA Gold card? Some of us are only gold on one airline......

    Single male seating

    I really hope not - still waiting for the early-mid 20's single chick to be seated next to me. BUT as I think I am the only under 25 with Gold status I don't like my chances :( :( Should have spent more time chatting up the reds/silvers when I was seated back with them.

    Velocity touting for point transfers but no bonus offered.

    Nail on head /thread But seriously, I have a truckload of CC points waiting for a bonus offer. I was excited and had already mentally transferred the points but no bonus :( I Bet I can hold out longer than they can!
