Agreed to a degree. Issue is the information provided by VA states that eligible sectors will be visible from xx.xx.2011 but not taken into account until 25 Aug 2012 so impact until 25 Aug 2012 is nada. However if it is an oversight and they are unaware of it then that is an issue that needs to...

Given that the "Status Credits earned since" and "Additional Status Credits required" are shown and together sum to the 800 requisite credits I would think the line showing "Eligible sectors since" is missing. I believe this is either an oversight on the part of the web designers or a bug. The...

Does not show any eligible sectors. All flights I have done for the status credits earned have been on VA so all sectors are eligible. I believe the number of required sectors should be 0 at this point as I have more than 8 sectors already.

The worst allocation ever. Myself and partner are both VA Plat - son no status. 3 of us travelling on same booking. Flight this evening allocated row 18. On the return on Sunday row 3. What is with that - not so sure it is an improvement.

I enquired about why my sectors were not showing and got the following - note that I have done over 8 eligible sectors and my accounts still shows 8 eligible sectors required - hence my enquiry to VA. Response from VA ... You'll note clearly in their response that Eligible Sectors will be...

In fact it was on/before Jan 14 - last flight I took was Jan 14 and the barriers were up then. I had three sectors that day and each had a barrier up. As for using front toilets - it did annoy me when it was PE and folks would come forward, often queuing in the PE space and often I would need...

Ah I see !! I've never seen a Silver pack - originally got status matched on Gold, then renewed Gold and acquired Platinum. I notice Virgin lacks consistency across all of its material and is not particularly good at highlighting salient points. When it comes to terms and conditions I have...

Agreed and good while it lasts - once eligible sectors requirement comes into the equation and the double status offers evaporate it may be a little harder to get status on so few flights. The pooling is awesome!!!

I realize that - I was just trying to be funny - like a double negative but different. It is good that you took the trouble to explain - next time I'll put a smiley face.

Not for 100SC as yet I don't believe - just had a look on Virgin site and still shows as feature coming soon.

I've got a ton of guest passes from Ansett - they didn't expire. Lounges are in the same locations. Happy to give you some - worth a try :) Pity the airline is not around anymore.

Doesn't that equate to not a frequent flyer ? But that aside I think a lounge pass should have same duration as status (at least).

I'd agree and go further and say not interested in flying Qantas either - the attitude of the whole outfit, management, staff & unions stinks and the competition is going to eat them up and spit them out simply because they are completely indifferent to the folk that made them in the first place...

Given the capers of unions and management I'd be surprised if there was anyone left over there to turn out the lights let alone switch camps.

I've booked 3 return flexi fares in June the A330 MEL - PER and upgraded to Business with the complimentary upgrades (Partner is Platinum as well so had the upgrades available). Awesome !! Speaking to a couple of Virgin folk and they tell me the plan is to take the current A330's out of service...

This is awesome. Keep up the good work !! Next flight isn't for a week or so - looking forward to sampling the goodies.

I travelled from OOL to SYD yesterday on a "I" class fare. I had a booking (Premium Economy) 4pm out of OOL connecting to a flight SYD - MEL. I was early at OOL (Around 1:30pm) so asked if I could get an earlier flight to SYD and retain the connection SYD - MEL (as I was meeting someone at the...

And a few years back DJ been taken seriously as a premium airline was a myth too - they are getting there. Pretty soon the way the unions and management are going Qantas will be a myth too - it already is as far as being a premium airline is conerned - a true fantasy!!!

Never fear - if you miss out - you can both go back on a Nostalgia trip and reminisce about how it was in the good old days. I am glad I am in Melbourne, just gone through an evening from hell, every second flight cancelled, severe weather here. Glad I'm Platinum - sitting in lounge and they...
