Just got a note about renewing for another year - not bothering. I'm finding they are terrible value overall, and after a year enjoying Virgin's superior service, I won't be back.

Yes of course - I know the difference between beer/wines and spirits on this service. I fly domestically 40 times a year, the exact same route and anytime I've wanted a wine or beer in the previous 12 months on VA, it's not been a problem. Something has now changed apparently. Seems the FA's...

This could be it - I meekly sat and asked for apple juice like everyone else. I figured it was just another change I hadn't been aware of. Should have pushed it - but to be honest, I wasn't gagging for a wine anyway, so no big deal. Still - would be nice to have some consistency, and some...

I think this is all a smokescreen. VA want to limit their spend - in every way possible. They are simply over-reaching in this situation and have offended a repeat customer in the process. Poor show boys...

It surprised me too - especially since our flight last week left at 5pm precisely, but nothing was offered!

I sat next to an elderly South African woman from PER-MEL the other week - she was going MEL-Auckland later on, to meet with her daughter (w/2 kids) who had lost her husband through heart attack, aged just 47. She lived alone in a retirement village (her husband dead), but really enjoyed the...

I had a PER-MEL flight on Wednesday last week, 5pm departure, and all alcohol was paid only?!? We got the usual hot meal, gratis. Have never had this happen before?

Re: Happy Hour returns For those who haven't got the email today, the Promo Code you need is : CJX27 2 hours to go...(nothing for me, so best of luck)

You'll get a meal on PER-MEL and back, every time. Hope you like Chocolate Mousse? Same dessert, every, single, f l i g h t.......

I missed the sale completely - worked throughout the day and never raised my head. Anyone score anything worthwhile?

just arrived in today's mail - This week we welcomed the arrival of our first 787 Dreamliner into Melbourne. We're celebrating with an exclusive sale event on Tuesday 15 October 2013 for Club Jetstar Members only! Sale fares will be for travel on our Airbus 320/ 321 and A330 aircraft and not...

Sorry both - referring to Virgin both cases. <blushes>

re-booted (twice) again on Per-Mel this Friday night just gone. And I'm so heartily sick of Chocolate Mousse desserts on this flight.... I mean, OK the first few times, but EVERY meal guys?!? Don't they do vanilla? How about a cake every now and then. Ice cream maybe? I'd even settle for a...

I got PER-MEL return for $358 Saver on a November weekend - that's about 30% off what I pay every fortnight.

Just got the 1st Club Member SALE email with the fares for tomorrow. No good for me. Very limited dates... Melbourne (Avalon) Sydney $1 400 seats only Book Available on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Saturday evenings flights only. Adelaide <--> Melbourne (Tullamarine) $1 300 seats...

Had 4 flights on Virgin MEL-PER in the last 4 weeks and 2 of them had their entertainments systems rebooted (to no effect, I might add). The other flight of the 2 was fine, and the last had no system installed or iPads at all (now that was a first for me!). I can't remember Qantas ever being...

Solid advice Oz, thanks. The only complication is my 30kg electronic item is one piece, of 30kgs and cannot be split between bags.

Guys/Gals, You'd be aware that on Jetstar international flights, for example, a small fee in the hundreds will usually secure you extra baggage up to flight limits (less if booked in advance). I know that canny Aussies, wanting to import heavy items from overseas, have used that extra baggage...

I understand - worth watching out for. However, we stayed at the MGM, ate at the buffet every day and never had any trouble (stayed away from fish and anything that wasn't very fresh, or very hot and cooked in front of us, like to-order omelettes, for example). No troubles - great deal.
