    What's wrong with the Boarding processes?

    checking the fail to boards didn't somehow get on without their boarding pass being scanned. After making that announcement to check, they head out and commence bag offloads etc.

    Should VA have a membership status for FF's above platinum?

    Just re qualified with ~6 months to spare. I honestly see no benefit in giving my ~$12k worth of flights to VA over the next 6 months when i wont have anything to show for it. Platinum lounge was discussed with the Melb lounge manager who openly said that VA want to focus on opening lounges...

    Why is upstairs at the Sydney lounge closed?

    upstairs is closed on Mondays / when the lounge is quiet. they do it because it costs money to have people up there serving food etc when there's heaps of room downstairs. Brissy overflow lounge is the same.

    Seat selection in new system?

    Ok, im just going to say this. Theres an unwritten rule that 3 bravo and echo are off limits. You don't want to be "that guy" who checks in and thinks that sitting in the middle of row three is fine and dandy. Stop doing it people. Go exit and get the seat blocked next to you or something...

    Seat selection in new system?

    Just spoke to the team - around 40% of their calls now are members wanting to change seats. How on earth can this be economical!? Additionally, she was aware that the new system allows anyone to get allocated to the gold / plat sections upon terminal checkin. No word as to if they are going...

    looks like the business class crowd control has thankfully come to an end..

    I've noticed on 4 flights this week, FA's are not standing guard to prevent the lower class passengers bumrushing the business class suits before they can amble their way up the airobridge and into the terminal. Thank god. Seems like sanity has taken over. Anyone else seen the same? Well...
