Does anyone know what routes VA plan to rotate this new bird on?

Any thoughts on QF's full takeover of AA? News reporting that if the purchase goes ahead, Virgin's wet-lease agreement currently in play would cease. Return of VARA to the East Coast? New lease of smaller jets/props? Bring back the e-jets!

VA happy to cede the trans-tasman market share (or lack of) to QF/JQ & AirNZ until end of year I guess. Agreed, the trans-tasman bubble should be reciprocal both ways regardless of which passport you hold. It was only in the last month or so Australian's were allowed in from July quarantine...

Anyone get stung recently by VA's decision to cancel all NZ flights up until November 2022? Had flights booked in September (SYD - ZQN) suddenly disappear from my VA app. Rang the contact centre to be advised that they are cancelled and I can take a full refund or flight credit. When asked why...

The VA and Velocity websites need a major over-haul/refresh. I am sick to death of having to call up every time my work books flights with VA to add my velocity number. It seems to never let me do it online prior to or after travel. Always comes up with an "Error has occurred please contact...

Not entirely true. I called up as a silver on a Saturday night around 11pm and got a nice lady in Brisbane. although I did try velocity's number not virgin australia and she said they were closed.

I found these pictures on Instagram tagged Virgin Australia #LAXLounge

or to make achieving Gold or Plat that little bit more 'special'? Maybe give the silvers even more to aim for now? I think it's not a bad idea IMHO :lol:

My silver card took 4 weeksWhen I went up to Gold I recieved it within a week and a half

What is currently installed on current E190 for business class? Was sitting in 3A on BNE - MKY last friday - had a curtain above me to section off business class. The seats were covered in different leather to the rest of the plane and there was even a bulkhead in front of 1A & 1C. Forget the...

I was sitting at 485 SC and just prior to taking another trip I rung velocity because I had SC expiring whilst I was mid journey to see if I could get bumped up to Gold as technically I was earning them before the required date but they wouldn't hit my account in time. The foreign lady placed...

Hi everyone, Can anyone confirm that in the first 4 or so seats in economy (rows 3 - 6) I believe have slightly extra legroom? I've just ticked over from silver to Gold and finally had the chance of sitting in row 4 instead of row 8 and beyond and noticed there is definitely more legroom than...

thanks for all your suggestions! luckily I have a return trip next weekend (Saver again) to BNE which will put me over at 515 :) Only problem I've just realised is that I have 15 SC expiring on Saturday (I fly up friday) and a further 15 SC expiring on monday (I also fly back monday) Current...

I'm sitting on 455 SC and have a return MEL - BNE leg this weekend on saver which will bump me up to 485. Ive got no further flights booked til October and will have 30 pts expire in eraly September. Has anyone been given an Op-up to Gold at 485 SC? Wondering if I should just book another...

Hi All, Just wondering if anyone has had this scenario before: Had a flight booked officially connecting MKY - MEL via BNE (saver fare). Took MKY - BNE leg, then decided to stay in BNE overnight and forego the BNE - MEL side of the fare. Went to service desk to book new saver fare for the...

This is my experience with Delta flights crediting to Velocity FF Flight: Las Vegas - JFK ---- 26th April -------------- Credited 2nd May Flight: JFK - LAX ----------- 1st May ---------------- Credited 8th May

Flew DJ342 BNE - MEL in business on monday of this week. service was excellent, the mocktail was delicious - could've been better with vodka though! Had standard cheese platter and those luke mangan ice creams are to die for! The CSM seemed like she was new but she was very enthusiastic and...

what if I'm travelling in J and have a pass on my silver card left. Can I use that pass to guest that person in if they're travelling with me but in economy?

Is VH-XFE (a330) due to be delivered soon? its first test flight was 18-05-2012. Surely would have to be before october as previously noted.

Hi, Not sure if this has already been posted but I read somewhere that you earn lounge passes incrementally every 100 SC's earned. I'm only VFF silver with currently 2 passes but just passed another 100 SC's since being upgraded and no extra lounge pass was given. Cheers
