I just made a post as I couldn't find this elsewhere until now. Velocity points on an SQ codeshare ANA flight? So based on what has been said above, am I best off removing my velocity details from my SQ booking and changing them to my Krisflyer details? I don't have any Krisflyer points/status...

I am flying on ANA but booked on Singapore Airlines so have an SQ flight number. I have my velocity number attached to the booking, will I attract any velocity points? Or am I better off having them as Krisflyer points and then transferring them? Or some other option? I have no idea about this...

Hi all! I have some questions around tactics for maximising benefits from velocity. We are a family of 5 so benefit from family pooling, but also don't have much need to travel in the next year or 2 other than domestic. After that, in 2025/2026, we have a few trips we are wanting to take to...

Thank you for your reply, and yes booked as a VA code. My understanding was each flight is a separate sector or have I misinterpreted that? So MEL-SIN, SIN-NGO, NGO-SIN, SIN-MEL would be 4 sectors. Or do I only count one flight sector from MEL-NGO?

that should be family pooling not looking... good old auto correct

Hi all, Apologies if this is a dumb question or something already asked - I couldn't seem to find the answer or get my head around it. I currently have no velocity status (just red). However, we are heading to Japan next year and Europe the year after and wanting to aim for gold status for...

Hi all, My apologies if this is (a) in the incorrect spot and (b) already asked somewhere - I haven't been able to find it. We are travelling to Japan next April and I am looking into the best flight options at present. We are flying out of Melb (which is a 4 hr drive for us) and we want to...

Thanks Matt. I assumed it would be difficult to ascertain for 6 months time so the loadings over the next 2 weeks offer a great insight, exactly what I was looking for. And agreed - the 18:10 is definitely better off meal wise, and as it will suit us better seems the best way to go, especially...

I should mention also ideally I would like to travel on the 6.10pm but if this is ordinarily the busiest will look to avoid it...

Hi all, Apologies if this is not posted in the correct forum as I wasn't sure! We are travelling to Sydney in September and will be using our AMEX free flight and upgrading to Business. We will each have a babe in arms so looking at travelling when business class is relatively quiet to (a)...

Hi all! I know this has been covered before but there seems to be conflicting results so thought best to start a new thread. Looking at booking ADL-SYD using my free return domestic flight on my AMEX Velocity Platinum. It will be for my husband travelling with my son (1) on his lap, in...

We (my husband, me and our 2 year old) are visiting Queenstown next year and flying back business class via Sydney on Virgin. I have no idea how the lounge access works when connecting an international with a domestic? We have a 3 hour layover in Sydney and are really keen on using the new Air...

Thanks! Will let you know what it all ends up being.

Straight on their website; I will get the 100k when I have qualified (only at around $600 spend to date) but I wasn't aware of any additional bonus I would be entitled to.

No - I didn't sign up via a referral though (jumped the gun a bit). Could perhaps be that though accidentally being credited?

I think I just paid direct on my AMEX (I do have it linked to my paypal and can't remember what way I did it this time, but on my order confirmation it says Credit Card and can't see a Paypal receipt so thinking this was the case). So for $50, I got 50 points on my AMEX, 100 points to my...

Hi all, I have a relatively new AMEX Velocity platinum card. Just looked at my online statement and I have scored 10,000 unexpected bonus points - not that I am complaining! I made a purchase ($50) on Surfstitch, through the Velocity eStore portal, and paid for the purchase using my AMEX. On...

Hi all, I am just short of points for flights I need to take in around 2 weeks (5,000 points). My brother was going to transfer points from his Amplify card to his Velocity and then do a Family Transfer for the 5,000 I am short. HOWEVER, his wallet was stolen yesterday so all his accounts have...

Thank you both so much! Great to hear from those that have plenty of experience flying with youngens.

Yes that's correct - I will just have my son on my lap so I can't decide whether it's best to go the 1 seat alone or 2 seats (hoping no one books the seat next to me and he can sit there when I am eating etc).
