    Will you still earn/retain Velocity status beyond 2025?

    Actually yes this is so true. Also their lounges (domestic) even make the VA lounge look good. 😁

    I stayed one night at the Jakarta airport hotel at T2. Good enough room with excellent apron and runway views. Friendly staff. Plenty of eating places also outside T2 ground level.

    Major changes to Velocity Frequent Flyer announced 17/10/24

    I've just completed six sectors on SQ down the back. Route was PER-SIN-CGK-SIN-BKK-SIN-PER. Quite a slog for 90 status points only (and that was booked prior to even a further reduction in partner status credits on VA?). At least it was also booked during the SQ 50 percent points promotion...

    Minimum connection time Sydney?

    I guess a VA flex fare is also expensive? Keep your QF points? I have done once NH to VA with one pnr and it was quite seamless. Transit time was 2 hours thirty mins.

    Article: Car Rental Loyalty Programs Compared

    I think some of the published as advantages are a fallacy...such as "skip the Q" and priority. Half the time you are lucky if there is one person working the desk and a long Q. Also booking via consolidators or such as Vroom Vroom and Holiday Autos often result in the same car from choice of...
