It literally is a safety list - to put anything there for political reasons is the very definition of invalid.

It says platinum to gold though when I try and do it, did it say plat to plat for you guys? And now they have the fee again.... oh man I can't believe I missed this deal of a lifetime, I might try and email them.

What no way, how can I get a platinum status match - is it still happening?

Probably another point to consider, if you're living in Europe, it will be impossible to get the correct amount of SCs flying QR from Europe to Asia (ex Australia), since those flights won't be codeshared, right?

Oh yeh another question - so would it be a fair assumption that plats will continue to have access to Etihad F lounge until 1st of June, regardless of travel class? Can anyone also remind me if that access comes with +1 (on same flight)?

Can they at least put some meat in the meals at the lounges.... my god. 1733310726 VA has shipped a lot of features and UX Improvements to their website and app (IMO It's much better now regarding clear benefits, what's there, what's left, etc), and improvements to booking reward flights. I...

Yeh plat plus is fair enough, didn't think of that.

Maybe I am not following, but what changes did they make which would incentivise those people to travel more with VA? If someone is flying SYD - MEL once a week and previously they were only doing the first 6 or 8 trips with VA, what incentive is there now for them to do all their trips to VA? I...

Thanks for the interview, it was very insightful. I guess those here who suggested VA doesn't want people who mostly fly international were right, but I am still perplexed by these changes. If that's the case, why drop the requirements with flight segments? Why not increase them instead? If we...

I really like Dan's videos, and I find him having a very refined perspective, but it's just an annoying shame he doesn't drink alcohol and eats vegetarian, because food & bevies is one of the most important things to me, and I feel like I get nothing out of his reviews in that regard.

Hi I have a ticket from SQ which is on a group booking, and another which is a reward flight ticket (through VA). In both cases, it's not possible to upgrade in any way from the manage booking feature on SQ's website because of the type of ticket it is. Both are economy. My question is, would...

RBA always asleep at the wheel, needs to commission a review just to state the obvious.

I think email support and let them know, they are probably changing their search to only include QR and it's having side-effects.

Not my experience - overcrowded, the same garbage food as in every generic lounge (I mean so literally, it's the same catering company that caters this garbage for star lounge as well as plaza and probably others), even if you can get the food - so crowded its gone half the time! Didn't like...

On Sunday, I made it out of BNE on the very last flight, after being stuck on the tarmack for an hour. Very very very lucky, every flight was cancelled in and out after about 8pm. I met a poor gentlement on the train who was down in Sydney for a game for the day, he said the the airlines don't...

Ultimately they will change their mind if and only if they think it will cause many FFers to leave them. Unfortunately, I don't see any way for them to know until it's too late.

The beer in BNE is great - balter, probably the one of the best mass produced beers. In SYD they used to have asahi, but not anymore, very sad. Anyway, I have been mulling and mulling, and I am increasingly thinking either to give EY a serious go, or KF/TR combination (Star). I guess points...

Not sure about other cities, but the AMEX lounge in city is the biggest sh*thole I've ever been to. It makes the Qantas international J lounge actually look good by comparison - and that's really saying something.

I will address this point generally - having more QR flights is good, but it doesn't need to come at the cost of VAFF exclusivity on the way to EMEA! These things are NOT mutually exclusive! SQ flies to Australia far far more than QR was even proposing earlier. Did they insist on being the only...

I submitted my comments to ACCC about this, it's still open until the 7th - would urge others to do the same, as it clearly stifles competition for all VA customers heading to EMEA.
