Nothing to do with VA. Depending on your destination and your citizenship situation QR may have to do a document check to make sure you have the right visa/permit for your destination. Some airlines will still issue you a boarding pass when checking-in online, but will actually still conduct a...

That's too bad. I really do prefer SQ (or QR/EY/NH even for that matter) when going to the US East Coast (namely New York) over via SFO/LAX. The 2 West Coast hub are just way too busy and connecting onto a domesitc flight means there's no nice duty-free / lounge option to kill time.

Does Velocity get access to SQ's North American routes? I've been looking at J rewards space to the US (specifically SIN-JFK/EWR on the 359URL) and found some pretty decent rewards space on SQ (Saver/I Class). The spaces is availabel on both SQ's own website and Aeroplan but doesn't seem...

I’ve read some of those submissions to both ACCC and NZ MOT and can say they’ve only stated the obvious while lacking any evidence to back up their claim. They are, perhaps fanciful, to think VA will just restart trans-Tasman services absent this arrangement in the near future. I couldn’t find...

This will be great news for PT, it might finally make sense to use those upgrade vouchers now flex fares are more reasonable.

Why would that be unfair? Regrettable is probably a better word for it. We'd all like VA to have standarised and far reaching and recriprocal alliance type arrangements with more airlines instead of the current patch work of partners but that is a business decision VFF has made and have been...

I recall after the signed the interline with Delta they were even making cabin announcements welcoming delta connecting passengers onboard.

VA is really trying to pump up those forward bookings. Not really a surprise but just shows that demand across the board is continuing to be soft.

I think we should all raise feedbacks with VA/Velocity such that they step up the account protection game. When the tech world is already moving from MFA to Passkey, VA without even basic text based MFA is stuck in the early 2000s.

They should be able to. However Multi City with a stop-over greater than 24 hrs will be priced the same way as 2 separate tickets. If both flights are on the same day then they are not technically multi-city. It's just a normal connecting itinerary and you happen to prefer/book this particular...

Even during the winter peak? Thinking of just gambling without a backup Y ticket for my trip in mid Jan 25. Dates will be slightly flexible except I’ll need 2x J and it won’t bankrupt me to book Y last minute if the plan fall through 😬

Surely even a sheer curtain like the US carriers have would do just fine. Also they also uses a sky divider from the looks of it.

if someone could be a historian for just a sec, when and why did VA got rid of its ERJs? I think I read somewhere that they brought in Fokker for Skywest to replace the ERJ they sold so it definitely looks like a deja vu moment 😂

Use a password manager and randomly generated password - never reuse passwords between websites and never share your master password. It should already be built in to any relatively modern device/browser. For most people that will stop 90% of attacks on your account that relies on password...

Certainly not. You are an unsecured creditor and last on the list to get anything if Rex is liquidated. If VA is interested in anything in Rex it would just submit a proposal and negotiate asset purchase with the administrator. It doesn’t need to crowd source via Rex ticket holder.

Not exactly a fair way to do the math? If they want the keep the 737 going for another decade the cabin refresh will be needed regardless of whether they want to install the extra row or not. At most you can count the cost to purchase the 6 extra economy row plus additional labour to install.

Really? I thought you need liferafts to fly over the great Australian bight which is typical for PER flights?

I love the days when VA would price captial cities $5 below Rex pretty consistently. VA flyers are sure to see fare edge closer to QF levels now. A sad day for everyone indeed.
