    Virgin Australia flights to Doha

    Yes, this seems odd to me too. The general thrust of the new chart seems to be that they intend to offer single through award bookings [Aust port]<>DOH<>[Euro/Gulf port] and vice versa. But as far as I understand, VA prime codes will only be between Australia and Doha. And award seats are...

    Qatar Airways to acquire 25% of Virgin Australia

    Is WSI actually exempt from the current caps? It could be like ADL or CBR or OOL, as another port they can add without the limit?

    Flybuys Velocity Status Credits late to Post

    Yes. After emailing FlyBuys and then webchatting Velocity I was told to email Velocity and it's being reviewed.

    Virgin Australia Business Class - Meals, Menus & Service

    I have an evening flight this Thursday and because of late booking the business fare was worth the increment. Are they serving spirits in J on SYD-MEL flights at the moment?

    How long does NAB typically take to post sign on bonus points?

    Datapoint: NAB Rewards Signature (the generic one, not a QFF-sweeping one) Applied early Sep; initially declined Pushed for review; finally approved two weeks later, right before departure to NZ (had to activate Google Pay without receiving the physical card, and absurdly, some places in NZ...

    Yeah, Y seat maps are still not working for me on a desktop browser, either.

    Credit Card Offers Amex Platinum Card Benefits, Offers & Discussion

    Has anyone else received info about a general solution to the problem of lost Radisson status? Or has it just been on a case-by-case basis for people who specifically raised it either with Amex or Radisson?

    Al Safwa lounge access on First Class Reward ticket

    Yeah, I passed through DOH about three months ago with an outbound F ticket to BKK. They were oversubscribed for sleep rooms when I arrived (circa midnight) but I booked for a (paid) massage treatment and the masseuse afterward offered to run me a jacuzzi and let me doze on the treatment bed...

    New Amex statement credits

    Were these DJ gift cards, online? Often an online purchase for gift cards processes as a different merchant than standard merchandise, and accordingly doesn't count. But I have no specific experience with this. (I have purchased DJ gift cards in-person for VAEFNO before, and received the credit.)

    Credit Card Offers Amex Platinum Card Benefits, Offers & Discussion

    Paying by the month? I think they upped the monthly charge so it will now exhaust the rebates before the end of the year. IIRC my rebate was reduced in September. I think if you pay annually you get it fully rebated.

    Credit VA flights to AC

    Where did you get the 8000 points for SYD-MEL from? Is that possibly their redemption chart? Earning of redeemable miles and status miles by fare bucket is as per the percentages on their website, 25%-150%, but as you've noted only domestic earns SQMs. (And I don't think it's possible to earn...

    Mine has not (yet) been reinstated. Did you get any response regarding the general problem?

    New Amex statement credits

    Last card now received the cashback, but still shows the offer as "active" rather than "redeemed" for some reason.
