Sorry if this adds confusion but isn’t there three levels? Your aud account/baalnce, foreign currency buckets and the Jars that you can move from foreign currency buckets into a further protected Jar…? That’s been my interpretation from the various discussions. Based on this understanding, I...

"Velocity Status beyond 2025" versus start a new thread on other topics...?

Which locations are you getting Beyond lounge access? Are they taking you there or are you using the entry kiosk to scan in at the "hidden" door?

I made a recent change to a DSC booking and the DSCs still posted. If you cancel to travel bank, you lose the PNR, so possibly best to change the flight dates rather than cancel…? But i guess that limits to same routing

I used to get an Australian call centre when I called... maybe it was before COVID. But definitely noticed the accents of international call centres in the last couple years. They still were able to achieve what I needed, so wasn't unhappy.

I shared my experience as Pilot P+ on recent flights over in Thai thread… Post in thread 'Two month trial of Platinum Plus' Two month trial of Platinum Plus

And return flight BNE-CNS Curry with optional chicken And my wife’s Beef macaroni cheese. Note the CSM had added snacks and chocolate in the side dish. I asked later, and that was her own initiative, which was appreciated. ( Though note that the flight down also had the chocolate added.) I...

CNS-BNE recently Teriyaki Chicken.

I've been meaning to report back on our recent trip, which was first time for me with the new upgraded status. VIP was printed on my boarding pass. I had used my (previously-earnt) Platinum Partner bonus to upgrade my wife's status back to Platinum from Gold. We were travelling CNS-BNE-CNS in...

Melbourne (and Victoria) are a bit left-leaning, aren’t they 😆

“We asked our customers and they told us they wanted our offering to be simpler and fairer…”. It’s like dejavu and I call 🐂💩

Ok, let’s imagine you’re the person signing off on the design and you have to consider if 180 people are potentially going to die or not in an emergency… how quick will you sign that document?

And wasn’t the Qantas divider previously a full curtain anyway on the B737s, so I also don’t quite understand the ins & outs of the approval process and potential delays that are being reported.

Yes but remember with many of these type of approval things, just because one country approves something and has it in regular use, doesn’t mean another will just accept that same approach. Rightly or wrongly, they would want to do their own review and approval process. Fairly common in government.

Wouldn’t they be looking at safety issues like does it obstruct evacuation procedures, can everyone watch the safety briefing etc ?

I noticed on my upcoming bookings that my status is showing as "VIP". I wonder if this is where access to Beyond lounge is being granted - possibly there is no disctinction between Beyond member status (VIP) and Platinum Plus (VIP) member status in VA's system, and therefore, "computer says...

Now watch QF dump capacity and drop airfares on any potential competing routes, bleed the competition to death and then revert to usual programming of squeezing the most dollar out of travellers 🤣

I use the Virgin Money High Flyer Velocity Visa card as my primary VA earning card now. Gave up the Virgin Amex during COVID and haven’t gone back to it - converted it to Platinum Edge and now also have the Platinum card to allow for conversions to Velocity.

Have you never had a conversation with someone on the ASD spectrum…. Would make entire sense. (And being frank, some/most members would fall someone along the spectrum - it is a spectrum after all…) 😉😂
