There are niche insurers in London who insure contractors going to warzones like Ukraine and in Africa, they can do a policy for you, but you may not like the price. London is the insurance capital for bespoke insurance policies which are "very hard to price", they can underwrite anything you...

The business class redemptions were already of horrendous value, and to me not really with it, in very old aged A380 cabins with 3.5k fees for a return trip to Europe. First class was really the only valuable thing EK offered on a trip to Europe (and pretty much never possible from Australian...

I am still unclear, maybe someone can post about this if you have done this recently - If you fly on a Qatar booked flight which is VA1/2 (or equivalent) but with QR codeshare, do you get the normal VA SCs since its technically operated by VA?

Put me down as gold, that date works well :)

Everything the government does is such a rort, unbelievable.

Well done all these years! Good luck in your future endeavors.

That's not bad, from 61% to 87% just in 2 months, I bet it's above 90% now!

Recently Qatar has doubled their flights to Australia. I've only flown a couple of times but in J. What I'm curious is in economy, how is the utilisation? Did they really just double their flights and they are almost immediately at capacity? Is the next move to go to 3x with VA as they...

Didn't they say they are upgrading catering as part of this lounge upgrade? Anyway, why on Earth is it taking so long? Seems pretty unreasonable.

Can you confirm where this information is? So I guess if you are at least gold with VA and use VFF to redeem, you will be able to select seats? I guess that is another new "benefit" by way of removing a previously free feature.

That's kind of weird, so does that mean that for instance with VFF reward booking, you will be able to select for free?

Well when booking these on QR website, it says, "flights operated by Virgin Australia". I know it's funny, but it is what it is?

Just a question, with this again; I booked an iteniery with QR through them and all flight numbers QR of course, but it uses VA1 & 2. Since they are operated by VA, would they count for this?

Thanks, disabling the ad-block actually worked, really strange.

I've been using chatgpt for a while (and other models for coding), and have the pro plan - I have to say, it's an absolute life-changing blessing. I've found it really good to give ideas for itineraries for holidays and even simpler things like hikes locally. Something which used to take hours...

Unfortunately their support just replied to call them to book and debug - I'll give that a go next week. I highly suggest you guys contact them also, so that they know it's not an isolated issue.

Hey In the last 1-2 weeks, every time I try and log in, I get this endlessly: I filled out a contact form yesterday but not expecting much. I tried different browsers, but always the same outcome. Has anyone else had this happen?

I've been waiting for Virgin to fix their stupid inconsistent pricing so I don't have to pay a 2k premium over booking identical flights with Qatar, but they haven't, so I will let my platinum status lapse into gold next cycle.

I'm confused how you guys are seeing any F - could it be status related? F even as a column hasn't come up for me in months on any route.

I think they release some seats once every few weeks, an they get bought out very quickly, like overnight. You need to be on it like a hawk.
