    Very poor QR J availability - MEL to Europe

    I was thinking about that. QR did that to QFF and now do the same for VFF. I saw something similar happen for CX to QFF too. Used to be a lot of CX rewards seat for QFF but I can only see it become available maybe 7-14 days before departure. I guess this also contribute to the availability but...

    Very poor QR J availability - MEL to Europe

    Had been trying to find 2 one way Business class reward seats from MEL to major cities (London, Paris, Athens etc) in Europe during Jun and Jul 2024. (or any other months in 2024) Couldn't find any seat available at all. Is it because I am VFF Silver or the reward seats already been taken or...

    Early status upgrade to VFF Gold - what should I do?

    Just an update. VA didn't extend my gold for another 3 months in the end. (I was upgraded 3 months earlier) In summary, they confirmed IT system decided when to upgrade and once that's done, you can't be downgraded and they can only review your account after 1 years and see what they could do...

    Virgin - iPad pro told to stowe before takeoff

    Is your iPad Pro 12.9 inch or 11 inch? I believe 12.9 inch do need to be towed away due to its size.

    IC Hayman Island

    Yea I believe it was around mid January. The entire resort was flooded due to excessive rainfall. According to some of the staff that been living there for a long time (I believe they were there since One and Only era), it was the worse flood in the past 15 years.

    IC Hayman Island

    Just for information IC Hayman Island is pretty doggy (maybe all IC hotel are the same). I spent over $10k at the property, and only got points for my hotel room spent ($4k). Have to follow up on the missing points. Very impressed with the Ambassador team, they got it all sorted for me within 24...

    IHG Hotels that recognise status

    You should contact them and ask. I can confirmed that there is no club lounge, and all booking include breakfast for free (pretty sure). P.S. if you are going as a couple, I would highly recommend to book via Qantas Holiday, which has a promotion at the moment, basically save you around...

    Citi Personal Loan Plus=Velocity.

    I got rejected by Citibank last week. Not sure whether it is something to do with my financial position or they think $2000 loan is not worth giving out 150,000 velocity points. Good luck with your application. Maybe worth consider applying for more than $2000.

    Early status upgrade to VFF Gold - what should I do?

    I think this is a very great hidden policy for VFF to do early upgrade. However, I am disappointed that VFF didn't do anything when the early upgrade actually disrupted my plan. Especially they could see my future booking in Sep 2022 that would give me the status credit to get to Gold.

    Early status upgrade to VFF Gold - what should I do?

    Unfortunately not able to get to Platinum :( It is very annoying that VFF didn't even ask whether I would accept the early status upgrade.

    Early status upgrade to VFF Gold - what should I do?

    Recently got upgraded early to VFF Gold without meeting the 500 status credits criteria (I had around 495 status credits) Usually I would appreciate it but I have been planning my travel strategically so that I will get to Gold in Sep 2022 and can enjoy the benefits until Sep 2023 (planning to...
