    The Qantas Status Run Master Thread

    For a last minute booking, for 160 points for QF FF I think that cost is excellent. Even better, you get to Inverness!! Perfect. Enjoy.

    Virgin Australia Business Class - Meals, Menus & Service

    What's wrong with just pasties, croissants, rolls. Hams and cheeses. It's not that hard. 🙄

    Virgin Australia Business Class - Meals, Menus & Service

    Even Italians don't have pasta tortellini at 10am!!😂 Yes of course it's hard to please everyone I know. The airline CSD also called it "lunch"......but well its not lunch at 09.30. Anyway each indeed to their own, but my point really for this sector is that it's a 5 and half hour flight. A...

    Virgin Australia Business Class - Meals, Menus & Service

    I think that's the issue though ..VA market Business Class...not a "LCC up the front "product. They also can charge very much Business Class fares east to west and back. The flight length is a due consideration. It does not need to be dine on demand ....although again for 8 pax, come to think...

    Virgin Australia Business Class - Meals, Menus & Service

    they have hours to clean up! Seriously.... VA say they want to keep elites those who fly with them regularly. Not on this evidence. 😜..this flight is long. It's only going to be about 45 mins shorter than some standard Europe to Doha...indeed longer than others. . I don't need reminding what...

    Virgin Australia Business Class - Meals, Menus & Service

    Missing the point. Other airlines can do it....just not in Australia.! Pasta at 09.30am is ridiculous and is beef ragau for your 1500 dollars ticket.

    Bet you can book it in Expedia.

    Virgin Australia Business Class - Meals, Menus & Service

    I would rather have had that short haul breakfast I think as I still think it's a bit odd that VA serve up lunch between BNE and PER on a 09.10 departure. What's wrong with a decent breakfast on those morning flights of over 5 hours followed by a snack or something? Or if it's lunch then some...

    Points/Bid/Platinum upgrade to/from Bali

    Does that mean in theory....the PER -DOH flight "should" also qualify? VA flight number one? I need to read more in these forums!

    Points/Bid/Platinum upgrade to/from Bali

    This is actually news to me. In theory what I am seeing is that you can actually "try" and use Platinum upgrade vouchers on short haul international? (Provided booked in flex?). I'm sure when I read the blurb going ex Perth you can't even choose BNE as a destination but seemed to be restricted...

    Virgin Australia Business Class - Meals, Menus & Service

    BNE-NAN. Peppered chicken , rice and a bit of broccoli. Tasty enough but a bit short on the chicken really for lunch. Comfortable Max flight, well looked after so far with much smiles. Good internet and a new one for me ...the sparkling served directly from the bottle, prior to and during and...

    Today (Sat) Perth to Brisbane. It was ok. Lunch time flight. Despite announcement at start of flight...front Loo for biz only yet is in use for Y class. No barrier, no shower curtain.... 🙄. No baggage weighing at Perth!!! 😁

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

    I guess, all things considered, many pax would have no issues in checking bags if the handling agents and airports were much better in the check in experience and the deliver of bags after arrivals. This I think is the major issue. After a short flight and indeed a long flight no one really...

    Cost of Pet (Dog) Insurance

    The initial costs (year 1) can be reasonable with must suppliers I think. If there are existing conditions it changes the scenario though. Some incentives available including Frequent Flyer points can be found if that is a driver.

    As do easyJet. It's amazing actually watching them and how they do it with such precision.
