Re: DJ Priority Boarding.. calling Plat, Gold, silver, partner airlines and then the Even if it was for all pax with partner airlines (e.g. a non-status Y pax on a Delta codeshare) maybe it is just being polite. I would assume that over 95% of pax on codeshares on VA metal are most likely from...

My bad... Was looking at wrong dates!

How did you get J seats for $200?

6 hours in Perth Airport? You're keen!

Where are you? I can recommend some awesome bars in Perth.

:p Flew that a few months ago, was offered a soup to start with (but asked for a pie instead as I was starving!). Not sure what happened for the next 3 hours as I was asleep but woke up 40mins prior to landing and had a light breakfast with fruit, yoghurt and bread.

Can't be SYD-PER dep midnight, do you mean PER-SYD?

I doubt it. Don't know of any airline in the world who will tell you the aircraft registration as any last minute subs would result in too many DYKWIAs.

Yuck... Oaked Chardonnary! What is this... the 90s?

We must have different definitions of fairness. I think DJ's is a lot harder on FFs to maintain/gain status, but it's their business and can do what they please, as long as they are upfront about it and don't treat different pax differently then it's still fair. I think the fact that many QF...

Not correct, the mileage on the Virgin calculations is 147 miles more for CBR-PER compared to SYD-PER.

Wow, if my employees tried to disparage my company like that I would be firing them all.

I wouldn't call it unfair, it's the same for everybody. Just DJ's decision to base their rules like this.

I think it is incorrect to call the trans-tasman routes 'International'. Most people/airlines class International standard as long-medium haul (e.g. 8+ hours). The trans-tasman service should be compared to intra-europe or intra-asia services. Virgin's PE still is poor in comparison to those...

I disagree. To make companies responsible for losses above what the price of the product/service (apart from negligence etc.) is is setting a bad precedent. My $1.50 fare for the bus then becomes a million dollar risk to the bus company if they get a flat tyre and I miss my meeting to hedge...

There was an article floating around that it would be shared between the SYD-PER and MEL-PER flights so you aren't guaranteed even if departing from MEL.

Got an op-up from Y to J and received points/SC based on a full J fare.

And SC and points for 2 peplos.

You will get SC and points for each leg, so BKK-AUH and AUH-LHR

Surely there is some demand for an 8:30pm flight though...
