So interesting that Virgin have let this slip so much, just as Qantas has used tech to competently fix theirs…VA should really look at tech enforced boarding groups IMHO - it’s obvious the staff are of the thinking just jam them all on at same time to get a OTD… Once again out of SYD on VA (but...

The comments are the best part…. (Although I feel terribly sorry for the passengers stuck on that piece of junk!); “When Virgin said they were a budget airline, nobody thought the toilets would be cut from the budget.” “They should change the slogan to: ‘Virgin Australia — taking the piss...

Just saw it on no news…. Multiple people apparently soiled themselves… 😧

I thought I’d share this, perhaps it’s linked to the Velocity devalualtion / softening business bookings etc etc but our Virgin Account Manager approached our Procurement team as they’ve noticed a drop off of our bookings with Virgin. (Note our total domestic travel is actually +18% so clearly...

CX still don’t have them in J right?

I think MEL got the inaugural A220 flight as well from memory. I guess the plane is named after Victoria too.

Would hard blocked show as a block on EF or occupied out of interest? Looking at my first flight, looks like all F seats are ‘occupied’ sadly…. Won’t bother going to airport T-3 hours if they’ve already been allocated to diamonds…..

Have they announced the inaugural first flight route?

Hopefully they are similar to the new QF A220 fleet which I find really comfortable (for Y). The new VA737 seats I find very very hard and on a slightly odd angle for me. I haven’t flown NZ Y for a very long time so couldn’t compare!

Thank you, looks like I’ll be heading to support to be there right on T-3 hours (MEL)…!

For benefit of anyone trying, I tried to call up - no dice. Interestingly told that F is reserved for those travelling with infants 😂 Will try at OLCI.

Don’t suppose you’ve ever tried calling ahead of OLCI to beg? :) I try to minimise time at airports… but might have to break that rule if can’t use OLCI!

Hi there Flying shortly on some CX 777 flights in paid J as a OWE (QF WP). F seating is on the flights but not selling F, so they are blocked off for now for J seating later. I saw on some blogs that you can request these seats as a OWE at physical Cathay check in at airport? Does anybody...

Disappointing but not surprising.

You will get them in business on that flight :)

That will fall for sure…. Checking if my corporate rates have loaded…

Had first QFLink group boarding out of LST the other day. Great to see it in action outside the main ports!

Also in the camp of avoid Air NZ. Only exception is when I fly them (domestically) on a QF code which has actually been a fantastic arrangement long may it last!

Personally I won’t be changing any of my business trips to the US. Don’t go there by choice for leisure anyway, so no change to that plan. Clearly though there is a significant reduction in travel/planned travel into the US though, the UK and Canadian numbers are quite astonishing.

Well we can only hope the hot dogs aren’t thawing out somewhere in hiding ready to make a reappearance….
