    Virgin Australia changes to carry on baggage allowance effective 2 Feb 2026

    As a WP on VA I've checked an Ikea bed. I was flying anyway and the bed came in 3x boxes all under 23kg. Yes it was oversized but VA have no oversized fees which made much less than the $300 fee Ikea wanted for delivery to Central Queensland.

    Do you have any points in your ITA account? I had a few from a login bonus so perhaps they thought it was activity.

    New Adelaide Qantas Club & Business Lounge

    In Qantas lingo I'd say the lounge is "not match fit".

    $10 would be a new low https://www.australianfrequentflyer.com.au/jetstar-flight-switch they are clearly testing out different things to see how low it is people bite.

    Qantas Wine latest offering

    I ordered this and I'd selected the signature option, when I saw Aramex instead of Auspost that was my same reaction. On the day of delivery I wasn't home but the delivery driver first tried calling then sent me a text asking if it was ok to leave and if so where to put it, after leaving it...

    QantasLink to fly to Christmas & Cocos (Keeling) Islands

    Where did they provide this information. They're yet to announce things like baggage/check in details so impressed that they'd give an answer on the lounge.

    SkyTeam Status Match - ITA Airways

    I've got VA Plat until Aug next year and then will let it drop to Gold meaning VAs covered for me until Aug 2027. Additionally my QF Plat (OWE) is locked with enough bookings to Feb 2027 and now this LH*G until Feb 2027. Ironically Skyteam status is the missing one.

    SkyTeam Status Match - ITA Airways

    Got mine approved. Only managed to use the ITA status once on an Air France flight (lounge + a free bag). The *G status will be much more useful.

    Accor ALL Signature Discussion

    I went for the one month option as it worked out at ~AU$136 for 5000 reward points. Points are a fixed 1000 reward points = €20 so the 5000 is worth €100 currently ~AU$176 (~22% discount). I did the purchase and then cancelled the subscription right away so if a black Friday deal does come up...

    Qantas boosts international capacity, wet lease Finnair aircraft

    Good for me, I often book to/from ROK with hours to spare and have a few times this year snagged a J reward seat hours before departure.

    AccorPlus China

    This depends on where you are cycle wise, if your Accor China sits before Accor plus then it’s still possible for now to go over the 30. Had 10 from earlier on an account as the Accor plus bonus and then bought the Chinese program this week which credited the 30 meaning 40 total this year.

    Article: Qantas Auckland Lounge Upgrade: The End of an Era

    A classic at all EK lounges, my guess they have to send them to head office in Dubai.

    Consequences of Ditching Last leg of an Itinerary

    Don't make a habit of it but shouldn't have any issues. With a stop over of months there is no risk as already mentioned people miss flights often.

    Check Accor Plus free night availability

    From day 1 none were there for April next year so I’ll believe that when I see it. Yes I know they’ve had issues with raffles but still that’s not what the website says.

    Check Accor Plus free night availability

    So the website is a lie? They clearly stated availability wouldn’t be limited but here we are. I thought this thread would be dead but it lives on. Haha excellent for now I’ll sit tight on my previous stay plus and in the mean time wait to see if anything change meanwhile in my dreams Raffles...

    Check Accor Plus free night availability

    Thanks, frustrating if true given I can see Premier rooms where the flexible rate works out at AU$952 total (including taxes). The breakdown shows the total for both nights the same and that taxes are charged on a per night so in theory if one night free the taxes should be free on that night...
