    Virgin IT issues - had to buy another ticket for flight i'd checked in.

    It happened to me a couple of months ago. Went to check in for a return SYD MEL flight. No record, vanished. Had to buy a new ticket. Sorted it out later and they gave me credit.

    Virgin Slow with points

    Flew last Thursday MEL-CBR, back again and no points yet. Flew to SYD on Tuesday and back yesterday. No points as yet, I think they must be having issues.

    Feeling ripped off by Virgin advertising - we now serve food and beverage

    Yes, VA say wine time is between 5-7 but only if you take off between those time. If you take off at 4.55pm (even if you are delayed ) then no wine time for you!

    Velocity/Virgin websites are RUBBISH

    Just booked a flight MEL to LAX using rewards pay plus points. The dollar figure was X that I had to pay. When I got my itinerary it is a totally different cost. I spoke to the good people at Virgin and 30 mins later, and let me speak to my boss. There was no further clarity. I have sent an...

    Companion gold or family pooling

    I called the contact team to upgrade a flight and they told me I had Companion Gold and too nominate a person. Then my partner logged in to check in for a flight tomorrow and noticed all of a sudden, gone from Gold to Platinum in about 4 weeks!

    Companion gold or family pooling

    Was hoping that someone may be able to answer a question, I have around 1140 SC. At about 850 they made my partner companion gold. Now they have just made my partner Platinum. My understanding is that I should have hit 1300 SC for gold to happen, and 1800 for Platinum to happen. I am nowhere...

    VFF lifetime status

    I agree, it one of the major benefits that QA has over VA. It would mean once you finished all your business flying you can in your retirement access the benefits of a lifetime of loyalty. And if you bring it in, past loyalty should be considered.

    Missing points from DJ flight

    I just gave them a call regarding the flight well over a week ago and she updated it straight away. The friendly operator said there was a glitch at the moment and they are doing it manually.

    Missing points from DJ flight

    I have experienced the same lag time with points being credited. I flew last Tues MEL-SYD return and havent seem them, although they say they have been credited. I also flew yesterday, and they used to be quite quick. New system perhaps, nice to know that I am not the only person experiencing this.

    Best Airline for Frequent Travel in Australia (split thread)

    New poster here, Hi. For what it's worth I have been Platinum on Qantas and now Bronze. I am now Gold on DJ. I fly domestic usually. I find DJ Lounge a calmer, zen like environment. (I can get a beer there before 5pm, something that cheeses me off in the Qantas Club) The actual flight, we I'm...
