T&C's : Bonus Points will be allocated the member's Velocity account by 29 February 2024 It seems they will provide the point bonus in a single transaction. So bonus points will be received between 1st and 28th February (as 31st Jan is the last day).

Yes, you are right and you assumption is right too.

You mean Virgin Australia. This has been part of the commitment for sometime to bring more services in house with unions.

Bain are probably doing bi-weekly checks at best, and most likely monthly and review board content etc. So many years down the track, pretty much hands off and left to the management team. After all that's why company's have a management team. Also, you are assuming they are going to to...

The media swing is definitely turning to the positivities at Qantas and the negativity at Virgin Australia over the last few months. For all the IPO commentators, with the economy and the currently VA issues, its a poor business state. I fail to see much traction happening in 2024.

If you're doing that through the website, try through the mobile app and it normally works. That's been a strange quirk for a long time.

Same here. With a DSC promotion think I'd do it haha.

26 October is the seasonal timeable change.

VH-VUO is currently flying and has scheduled flight upcoming. How's it in progress? I'm surprised they are doing the VU* aircraft, I thought they would be exiting the fleet soonest.

Wasn't directed and you. Some people tend to think it.

Doesn't matter is you have no status or the highest status the is no difference in the hard product once on board , there's no special "economy", "premium economy", "business class" or "first class" which differs for those with status ;)

The initial complaint from the unions was crew being fatigued. The new deal includes extra bonus payments when working over 9 hours. Well, that's enticing fatigue with a cherry on top!

Booking.com is fine for hotels etc. The issue is booking flights. From what I can work out, gotogate was purchased by the company who owns and operates booking.com and they have simply incorporated it into booking.com without solving any of the underlying issues with gotogate.

But not everyone is as educated. If you are short for cash and have the points, you'd use the points.

That's inflation for you ;)

An odd suggestion, if you paid for the flights you wouldn't burn so many points. Plus you'd earn some points on the flight booking. Does that drum up your interest ?

Looks like they have walked away (or lost) their VARA contract with Consolidated Minerals. Likey due to Woodie Woodie being serviced by F100’s and not able to handle the A320 / B737-700 ? https://australianaviation.com.au/2023/11/national-jet-express-lands-two-new-wa-fifo-contracts/

Years ago any business complaint you would get 10,000 velocity points. I’ve only flown business class once with Qantas and they didn’t have my choice available and what they had I was allergic to. I said I was happy with an economy meal and they responded that they’re unable to offer the...

To be honest, if you were issued a FFC this was issued towards the later part of 2020. They've been extended a few times and it's been the same rule of using and traveling by 31st December 2023 for a while, maybe almost a year or longer. They could have probably been used countless times, but...

The article (which now seems to be paywalled) also mentioned the entire current 737-NG fleet will be fully decommissioned in favor of the MAX. Kind of obvious, but reflects they are going to stick with Boeing so expect ongoing new orders for the MAX.
