On my upcoming Europe trip I have a free weekend in Vienna. Can anyone with recent experience recommend a hotel (preferably < $A2600 per night) and any worthwhile tourist activities to do for my 36 hours there? I'll be travelling on my lonesome... Cheers arbo

I'm on SQ222 this Wednesday afternoon and would like to know what the current times are like to get through check in and security / customs at the SYD international terminal. Are people still experiencing the 1+ hour to get through? Thanks arbo

Hi all - I’m on QF11 this Friday and have a 5 hour 50 minutes transit at LAX before heading to on AA to CLT. In this time of COVID is there enough time to get out of LAX and see the local life before coming back in to the terminal? For local lounging I’m on a QF ticket for the AA leg but...

I often make use of the fly ahead benefit with VA when travelling between Sydney. Melbourne and Brisbane where there is usually plenty of flight options. I recall they will fly you early within 2 hours of your original departure. What is the deal in Perth? The flights are about 4 hours apart...

I am arranging a conference for our customers to be held in Nha Trang Vietnam later this year. I've flown from Sydney to Ho Chi Minh City before on Vietnam Airlines but has anyone done domestic flying? We have a one hour flight from SGN to CXR (Nha Trang). Does anyone know of any airlines...

I'm doing Sydney to Auckland next week and as a Gold VFF I'm interested to know whether it makes a difference if I book on NZ with my VA number or book through Virgin. The only real difference I can see is when I book NZ metal through the Air NZ website I get a better price than if I book it...

Interesting article from NYT on this issue. The cartoon sums up the current state if affairs nicely...

I had a strange delay to yesterday's flight from PER to SYD. We boarded as usual for a 10:00 departure. The cabin crew had already announced a 3hr 40 flight to Sydney when the captain came on and said there had been a change to the flight plan and they had to load some more fuel. I thought...

Can someone please confirm lounge access in SYD international? I'm travelling to Bali in May and I think the Velocity website is confirming that I can access the Koru lounge prior to departure in Sydney...

Just did a double take when I stepped off a VA flight from SYD a few moments ago. Walking past gate 12 (I think) there was a MAS 777 at the gate as if preparing to offload pax. If the current situation with MH370 was not so sad or serious i could make a joke in poor taste about finding it in...

On Wednesday I was flying MEL to OOL at 5:00 in the afternoon. I had finished my meetings and was back to the airport at 1:00. I thought I had a direct flight to OOL. I asked at the desk for an earlier flight and in trying to make the changes the check in staff saw that I actually had a...

Don't mow what the issue is but someone is parked on the taxi way surrounded by fire trucks. Seems to be creating a fair traffic jam behind him. I can't see from where I am which airline it is. Had anyway heard anything? Cheers

Hi there - long time lurker, first time poster...;) I'm flying MH to KL tomorrow for work and they have booked me on a discount Y fare on a MH coded flight. I'm only PS but I've got a comp pass to the QP. Given I'm flying on a MH code, not a QF code share, can I still get in to the lounge in...
