    JQ J seat availability question

    I've booked a Jetstar flight from NRT to MEL via CNS in Business Class (Max) in April and am not able to select seats. From contacting the chat team, they say there are no seats available to select on the flight, which is why I cannot make a selection and that I should speak to the agents at...

    Same itinerary different price on QF and AA

    I'm looking at flights for a family trip in October and the same itinerary is around $1500 less if I were to book with American Airlines vs Qantas - exactly the same flights and routing. I'd generally prefer to book direct with Qantas, but $1500 is a decent saving, so, is there any downside for...

    MEL to JFK in J using Velocity points - possible?

    It will be my tenth wedding anniversary in a couple of years, so I was thinking of using some/all of the points I've accumulated to take my wife to New York for a week or two. I was wondering what the options available for this are and how easy/difficult it would be to book. From looking...

    South African Airways partnership

    Hi, I was wondering when we might hear more about the South African Airways partnership and reciprocal benefits in particular? The last I saw was that we'd hear more in 'Early 2015'. I'm likely to be making a trip to South Africa at the end of May, so it would be great to use my Velocity...

    Help me get to WP... JASA options

    Ok, so I'm currently on 890SCs with a status renewal date of 30th September, I have a return to Singapore booked in Discount Economy (60SCs) and have 2 trips to Sydney to do. If I book these as JASA's, they'll net me 80 SCs each, so that'll take me to 1110SCs, still 290 short of the target. I...

    Los Angeles in October - when's the best time to book?

    I'm looking to book for 2 adults and 1 child to go from MEL to LAX in October. At the moment V Australia is around $4500 in total and QF is around $7000. Any chances of these prices coming down, are there regular sale events that I should look out for etc.? Cheers, James.

    Can my status earning date be changed?

    Does anyone know if it's possible to change the date at which status reassessment occurs? I've just qualified for Gold, and have until the end of September to get Platinum, which won't happen, but I will probably accrue around 300 to 400 SCs in that time, which would be better used if I could...
