    Posting of SQ flights to Velocity

    I'm in the same boat, had the first left to SIN credited but the flight to HKG about an hour later still has not credited. The return flights, HKG to SIN and SIN to SYD also has not credited, I've just hit the 14 day mark for one of the missing legs but will wait to Friday and do a retro claim...

    Discounted Access for Velocity members to Delta EconomyComfort Seating

    When I looked last night the prices seemed to be the same as the last weeks, i.e. $7.50 USD per person per leg LAX-LAS-LAX. Maybe only the more expensive legs have been discounted? *shrug*

    Sydney to Hong Kong on points.

    I do a stack of travelling around south east asia on a quarterly basis which is always on SQ, I can give you some insight into Y but unfortunately no J. I returned home direct on VS200 the other day HKG-SYD and it was a pretty average experience, I found the plane quite old and rundown, IFE was...

    Discounted Access for Velocity members to Delta EconomyComfort Seating

    Mrs Nitro and I have LAX-LAS return in late October and I nearly paid the $7.50 USD per person per leg but thought meh might wait until closer to the date. If I can get this for $15 USD total I'd be one happy camper, will give it a try on Tuesday! Not a bad little birthday present :)

    Velocity Status Levels

    This! I retained platinum in just on 3 months so the remaining year is kinda getting my wife onto Gold/Platinum just for the sake of it really, she doesn't really fly that often other than the yearly family holiday though. I refuse to fly QF anymore so they'll never see another $ from me or my...

    Slow (/Non)Posting of VA Points / SC's since the SABRE switchover

    I flew 4 legs on SQ last week and all posted in 2 business days. The previous 4 legs from two weeks ago still only have 1 leg posted. Will follow up with them again...

    Slow (/Non)Posting of VA Points / SC's since the SABRE switchover

    I guess I'm 1/4 at the moment, surely that is worthy of the Sabre drinks session I read about late last week...

    Enough is Enough

    I had the exact same thing happen to be about 4 months ago flying from MEL-SYD. Cabin manager started serving J class but in this instance he stowed too many items down one end of the trolley and it literally fell backwards causing wine bottles to smash everywhere. Similar effect, wine gushing...

    Bonus Status Credits

    Agreed, this frustrates me also. The lack of double SC promotions heading my way, lack of these bonus SC's. I attained Gold and now retained Gold and now recently about to hit Platinum, all the hard way by being dedicated to Velocity Frequent Flyer. *shrug* Meanwhile, my QFF account is going...

    Nothing here, as I sit at 970SC however I do have about 360SC worth of travel booked up until the end of November...

    Sorry. This booking has more than 2 flights...

    I would note the phone experience I had in calling VA to be sub par, the lady advised me she was brand new on the phone so I am trying to not be overly critical... I just got impatient by the end after her repeatedly telling me that my assigned seats were the best they could do, I told her...

    Sorry. This booking has more than 2 flights...

    Thanks for confirming, I tried to book seats with the help desk but seemingly they could only book me in row 20 for all of the legs. I told her to just leave it and I will deal with it at the airport. Agreed, they need to overhaul this online system, it can't come soon enough. Trying to lure...

I'm currently a Velocity Gold member on the cusp of hitting Platinum and can never modify a booking nor use advanced seat selection when I have an itinerary with more...

    Qualifying flights reset

    I re-qualified for Gold back in May even though my review date was August 17th. For the last two weeks or so my membership has been stuck on assessing activity. Between May and August I got myself in a position where I am about 100SC short of qualifying for Platinum and have also also exceeded...

    Maintain Status Offers Plat/Gold Silver (Two return flights or other)‏

    A little frustrated by this. I have earned and retained gold already and will qualify for platinum and I have never received a single offer from VA, all be it double status credits or anything. C'mon VA, show others the love!

    Retain (Status Matched) Velocity Gold

    Was gifted gold to lure me over from flying QF. Took a few flights and was pleasantly surprised by the experience. Unfortunately work has a domestic policy of flying QF which I think I now have a way around :) I have 4 legs a year on SQ - SYD-SIN-HKG-SIN-KUL-SIN-SYD in Y (Flexi) as well as 4...
