A quick question out there, as I’m relatively new to QFF status (last business I worked for used VA more often so my experience is more with Velocity). Been quickly rising through the status points this last year, but realised I’m going to be annoyingly close to the magic 700 to get to Gold...

I remember there being some comments about re-painting in a few other topics, so not sure if this story is of any interest: Virgin nod is white delight for airport | Townsville Bulletin Not sure if just a touch up or actual repainting of some of the legacy DJ planes, but as mentioned elsewhere...

Virgin dumps North Queensland routes | Townsville Bulletin Unfortunate. Not that I used TSV-ROK a lot, but did use CNS-TSV whenever time allowed. And just when CNS gets a lounge too, damn it. Now I get to look forward to all those lovely QanataLink flights, whee... :p

UpgradeMe? (Rebranding, bidding) Not sure if this has been mentioned elsewhere, but I like to think I keep a reasonably close eye on things around here ;) But apologies if it has. So I was browsing the flight upgrades section and noticed that things have changed a bit. Flight upgrades appear to...

As I have mentioned previously* I was doomed to sink to Silver before re-attaining Gold in a few months. Worst case I lost 100 SC, such is life. I was a little concerned the 2 flights in the week after my requal date would get lost in the "assessing your account" void though - But I was also...

So this is a thing. Having not used a "travel money card" before, it is effectively a prepaid debit card that earns points, is that about it? Didn't mention a cost I noticed. Having already got 2 (possibly soon to be 3) Velocity cards, not sure why I'd need another, but I'm sure some people...

So despite my best intentions (and mucking up when my requalification date was) it's looking like I'll fall a bit short of requalification to gold, sigh. :-| But, my schedule picks up again shortly after that and within a month or two I'll be back to gold again. Couple of questions for the good...

Been mulling over some flights over to NZ, but tragically (?) I have never actually gone out that way, so while I have been paying attention since the whole DJ/NZ tie up I haven't actually made use of it before. So hopefully there are some simple answers to a few queries I have managed to...

Just a random question, it seems my next trip will net me just enough points to fall just short of the 500SC Golden Line In The Sand - 5 points to be exact. As it is a work funded flight it is a saver fare (sometimes they book flexi if saver is close to flexi but nowhere near this time) and I...

Just got this in an email on my statement, apologies if it's been posted elsewhere: Interesting stuff, but more importantly (for me anyway) I assume this means the 2 MH flights I am taking in the next few weeks will still be accruable, they are "just" getting rid of the gold/silver bonus...

So in a manner of weeks I will be winging my way off to Malaysia/Thailand. However in light of another member's struggles with Etihad, even though I'll be using MH I thought I might check the details on my itinery to make sure everything is in order. And to my dismay on my itenery next to my...
