I'm a little confused - if there is no customisation/labelling, then what's the point (I thought the whole point was for found luggage to be able to be indentified) - other than functioning as an advert on your bags?

They do, and VA are still often cheaper (but not always) at least on the west-east routes. It's actually this that's decimated my chances of maintaining status, because I did a lot of flying on VA metal as it was the best fare, but now the SC earn is priced on the $ amount, I have no hope of any...

Yep, same here (Firefox).

IMHO, it's all laid out quite clearly how it works and it's usually people skipping reading and making assumptions that causes misunderstandings. The only legitimate complaint might be how this has now affected "Lifetime Gold" eligibility.

Yep and there are only 8 seats in the cabin, therefore none have been sold as yet.

When searching for business reward seats to use my complementary platinum upgrade, I was surprised to see that some flights don't appear to have any business reward seats available. Maybe I'm misremembering, but it seemed that until now, nearly all flights had 1 or 2 seats available on them...

Remember when Bain said VA would become tech based/run, self service, and the separate apps (Virgin/Velocity) merged with added functionality? Whilst there has been minor improvements to some things like rebooking on cancelled flights, and luggage tag viewing, pretty much nothing else seems to...

"Seamless experience"

VA have stated that unless swapped out due to problems, all their Doha flights will have QSuites.

They asked their customers, and it's what they wanted... /s

This is all very wrong information and isn't how passkeys work. Please don't spread around FUD.

Had a fantastic CM and flight VA684 PER-MEL on Thursday - felt very well looked after, and couldn't have been better IMHO! Food was tasty as well! Only minor downside was older (non Boeing sky interior) aircraft with no power or internet. On the plus side (and more than balances that out)...

Reward bookings are never issued under codeshare anyway, they're always issued under the operating airlines flight code, so I don't see why people are reading removing codeshare as removing reward seats?

I knocked together a little script today for fun to try and summarise where I'm at with Forever Gold (much less than I assumed!). I was able to scrape my data from 2013, and have a look at how it was classified. Interestingly, some of the older double status credits promos applied as double on...

Not necessarily the case here, but in my experience a low minimum password length is often a sign that the password is not being hashed and stored securely. There should be no technical reason to limit the password length this low (other than ridiculously long passwords that could stress a...

I'm not so sure that's 100% true (but maybe I'm mistaken)... I think a family transfer may not count as "activity" for the receiver, so maybe their own points could have expired, whilst the points transferred from a family member are left behind?

Think about it in two different ways: For obtaining/upgrading a status on any given date: Count all status credits and VA sectors flight segments within the last year. For maintaining current status: Count status credits and VA sectors since obtaining the status (and before the review date)...

Petbarn, Pet Circle, and PETstock are velocity e-store partners.

VA1373 LST-MEL, with fabulous and friendly service from Kaytlin, depite the short flight time and additional pressure of some turbulent weather: Really liked this chicken, salsa, pita meal!

Snap - but VA691 MEL-PER the day after: One strange thing - apparently the pantry wasn't available on this flight, and the FA could only offer a serve of cheese and crackers later in the flight instead.
