    Does anyone have experience when QF release last minute Classic Intl Awards?

    I am assuming that because I have picked up last minute business frequent flyer seats to or from Asia (one was the week of travel and one was the day before)

    Turkish Airlines interested in acquiring troubled VA owner (Hainan) stake in VA

    I thought TK had improved their safety. Airkine ratings gives them and VA 7 stars. https://finnoytravel.com/en/reviews/2018/07/24/turkish-airlines-review-the-best-airline/

    Seat allocation stolen

    I hope you didnt get 37J or something awful. When this has happened to me, I have rung and had a polite whinge and QF has managed to find a way to get me back to Row 4. I am not P1 (and never will be) but Platinum clearly counts for something sometimes!

    Virgin Australia Velocity Platinum Club

    Yes I had to ring and get them to manually adjust my Silver to Gold as I wanted to be Gold before a particular flight. Did the same with Platinum.

    Virgin Australia Velocity Platinum Club

    I They are not transferable are they? I would happily gift them! Crazy to have a benefit I never use. I had a huge fight with my travel dept over these. I was eligible to fly Business from CBR to PER so offered to book an economy ticket and use my free upgrade. The cost was $100s less than...

    Virgin Australia Velocity Platinum Club

    I dropped from Platinum to Gold to Silver for a couple of years and decided I wanted Platinum back! Would you believe it took me three months from Dec 2018 to Mar 2019 to achieve it with 14 sectors flown: HX: Business Four sectors 220 SC: TPE -HKG-BKK- HKG-BKK HX have a very good product and...

    Virgin Australia Velocity Platinum Club

    I never seem to use the upgrades. I always want to save them for longer than a MEL-SYD flight and then I find I am on the wrong fare class or the airline upgrades me anyway or I am in a paid business! Anyone have any advice/suggestions on how they use theirs?

    Building a stronger Qantas

    Too late at my end. Well a reduction as I could not see benefits of Platinum anymore and the way QF handled my concerns about their dishonesty over "enhancements" was so appalling that it was clear I wasnt really valued.
