Thanks mate. Thought they may have some sort of "wine" deal where you get 2,000 points for buying a case of mixed reds or something.

Quickest, cheapest or easiest please! Need them to enter the Virgin comp they are currently running where you can win some business class flights. Very new to FlyBuys so not sure how hard 2,000 points is to earn. :D

I've been a rubbish husband lately (working too much, negleticing house work) so just put in a bid for: SYDNEY to MELBOURNE for this Friday 28 for $155 then MELBOURNE to SYDNEY on the Saturday 29 for $190 Could anyone guess if I'll be a success? Guessing it's a total waste of money at these...

Quick one, can you use UpgradeMe on reward flights?

Thank you mate! Some really good options there. I'll have a look at the costs... what's a good $ per SC? Also, is it better value to upgrade a fare with points, than to buy the fare outright with points?

Hey guys, so, I have some time off work (actually, I quit...) from the 20th June. Hooray! I currently have 140 status points, and need 60 buy August 4 to retain Silver... Thing is, I wouldn't mind doing my very first status run and trying to get Gold. As I have a load of Velocity points that...

Righto, got the email saying I need 300 Status Credits in 3 months to keep Gold. Is this impossible? Any way to do this cheaply over a few weekend runs? (I'm very new to the whole "flying for no reason other than to get Status Credits".) Thanks heaps guys.

Thank you mate, wow, $1300, that sounds great! (I think?) Also, is 1300 including tax? Do you just click through lots of days to find deals like this, or do you use something special?

Thank you mate, but what exactly should I be able to get for $1800? Thank you.

Thank you guys, I'll take a peak this afternoon during Happy Hour. Appreciate it all, great forum.

For example, one way Premium, the other Economy. Thank you, Robert

Thanks guys. Looking like my best bet is getting a Flex Economy and using points to bump my wife and I to Premium.

Thank you so much guys, this has been very helpful. (And a little bit depressing!) 2k return with PE, wow! Is this likely to happen again? Should I hold out for a price like this? Also good to know the "normal" PE fare is around 2.5 return. I always thought "normal" was around 3k. What about...

Thanks for replying, And yes, leaving early July 2015 for 2 weeks. I'm not too fussed on getting the best deal ever, just don't want to get the worst deal ever! (And with little knowledge on what's expected, I have no idea.)

Hey all, hope you guys can help me out. Wondering what a good fare cost is for flying from Sydney to Los Angles return with Virgin Australia for both economy, and for premium. Thanks all, Rowdy Edit: In July 2015

Not sure what a "useless inquiry" is. I'll have to look it up. Also, how long does it take to actually get the points into my Velocity account? Is it once a month, or after each spend? Thanks.

I just applied. Likely should have done some more research here and went with another company. If I cancel the card in 3 months, will my credit rating go down? Thanks all.

Thanks all! Can you use your GOLD card to get priority check in for the person you're travelling with?

Hey all, recently made Gold. Hoora! Any tips on how to make the most of it? I've signed up for the HERTZ and HHonors program. I also don't really understand what an "award" seat is. Does that just mean cashing in your points for a free ticket?

Just wondering, if you upgrade your flight with points, do you get the extra Status Points associated with the upgraded class? Thanks!
