    For those that booked on the old B11 (when it first came around, now in the archives) and was 'withdrawn', were you contact by VAA or rerouted?

    Thinking it's time to give VA the flick

    Successful and Successful are two very different things. Have tried a few bookings on their site and it's not playing along.

    I have only been able to get this one to work if you book them separately. If I try to do a return booking in the one PNR it comes up with that same error.

    Virgin Australia Business Class - Meals, Menus & Service

    Latest J class trip from the weekend. MEL-PER A330 17:30 departure. The pre-departure sparkles were served nice and cold and was replenished during boarding.

    Velocity Changes incl SC earn on ASAs, SC by sector and baggage changes

    Re: VA: Earn Status Credits on Reward Seats I don't think the Saver Lite fares allow baggage to be purchased even at the airport. From memory you would need to upgrade to a saver fare and pay the change fee and the fare difference. seems the info on that page is confusing as all of the other...
