    FA forgets to serve meal!

    No announcement except that coffee and tea would not be served in the main cabin. There was no reason given. The couple in 1A and 1C seemed a bit perplexed after a conversation with the FA at the beginning. I didn't hear the conversation however she seemed to over service them during the flight...

    FA forgets to serve meal!

    A little bit. They didn't serve hot beverages in the main cabin however a few in J had coffee and tea. It was only bumpy through the clouds.

    FA forgets to serve meal!

    I flew SYD-OOL last night in J and we were not offered any meal. Don't know why and it didn't bother me. I had eaten in the lounge. Nobody else seemed worried about it as well. (7/8 in J)

    United Flight Credit

    We recently received some flight credits from United to the value of $400USD approx. This was due to a flight change we had to make that resulted in us getting the same class fare but at a cheaper cost. However, we incorrectly thought that we could use these flight credits on a VA flight...

    Virgin Australia Delays/Cancellations

    As we had too many for our car my wife elected to go via public transport and caught the 777 bus from OOL and then transfered to the tram to North Surfers Paradise (we were only going as far as the JW Marriott in Surfers) It worked well and she got to the Marriott in less than 1 hour.

    Virgin Australia Delays/Cancellations

    ....and not a good time to hit the highway between Coolangatta and Brisbane. We drove up around that time on Sunday and it was choc-o-block between Tugan and Mudgeeraba. (although I am guessing a lot of them were coming back from the weekend)

    Velocity Gold - Family Member Benefit such as priority boarding/checkin

    As long as they are on the same PNR it shouldn't be a problem. A few years back my daughter was travelling with her friend and they wouldn't let the friend line up in Priority checkin because the friend was not on the same PNR. SIA I think. (I think my daughter was Platinum back then)

    Philippines call centre for WP?

    Interesting.... perhaps the call centre was busy and you got automatically rerouted to the overseas call centre. That happended to me once many years ago however they were able to sort me out so it wasn't an issue. Perhaps wait an hour or so and call back again.

    can I do a status match with delta? im a VA Plat

    .....as for your Virgin Amex card it will only get you into 2 x visits into Australian Amex lounges. It won't get you into any other Amex lounges around the world. For that you will need a regular Amex Platinum card or higher..... (check out this link) Airport Lounge Access | American Express...

    Etihad J award using VA points?

    Yes, we booked 2 x J SYD - LHR (Sept.) and MXP - SYD (Nov.) On Etihad. However we booked them back in November 2021 so I guess that doesn't help you.
