    Bonus VA status credits offer - March 2024

    Will do 100%. All my bookings were done within the promotion period and flown in the promotion period too. They were operated by Alliance, but still booked through VA.

    Bonus VA status credits offer - March 2024

    I’m a bit miffed by this promo. I booked four journeys with 8 flights. Another VA forum I’m in had several people share that they were told that the bonuses were based on sectors flown. Wake up this morning to the bare minimum 45. Had I got my full allocation, I’d be Gold. Now I’m eyeing off...

    New Employer, New Program?

    Hi everyone, After being blocked from travel due to a dodgy employer, and then COVID, I am now travelling regularly again for work. At least once every two months, I travel from Newcastle to Townsville or Cairns via Brisbane. However, I also do 3-4 domestic flights to Adelaide, Perth and...

    Anyone actually made a booking with Virgin recently?

    For a company that is in the guts of financial trouble, you'd think Virgin would actually be wanting people to give them their money. My in-laws, wife and I have each tried to make the following bookings on separate devices in separate locations. NTL-MEL in the week after Christmas...

    Bumped A Month Ahead

    Hi everyone, The family and I are flying NTL-MEL on Jetstar in a months time. I booked using my QFF points, and today I got the dreaded "We've made some changes to your booking" email. My options are either to take the booking change which means lugging my 3 y/o and 3 m/o on a flight departing...

    Points Delay

    Hi everyone, Anyone else finding that there is a long wait for FF points and status credits being added to their account? I’m still waiting for points from a trip CBR-ADL-CBR earlier this month and again after a trip yesterday CNS-SYD-CBR, I have been credited with the SYD-CBR leg, but the...

    How long to points from partner airlines take to be credited?

    Hi all, I'm flying Malaysia Airlines Business class on Monday and am tantalisingly close to having enough points to purchase an upgrade from DRW-SYD-CBR (2,000 shy), which I will fly on Thursday. Will I earn the points in time to cash in the upgrade? Thanks, Baj

    BKK Qantas Club Access Run-around

    Wow - I didn't think Emirates accepted QC membership anymore. Is that a one-off, or have other people experienced this too?

    Delhi & KL Lounges

    Thanks for that - very disappointing about KLIA2. Jetstar were advertising lounge access on their business tickets. Wonder if that is the same lounge.

    Delhi & KL Lounges

    Hi all, I am flying into Bhutan on Druk Air next month on a Business Class ticket. Does anyone know if they have lounge access in Delhi? I've Googled and Bing'ed to my hearts content and can't seem to find anything. Secondly, I am flying on a 3K (Jetstar Asia) flight ex. KL on my way back from...

    QF - Front half of plane taken?

    Hi all, Here's an interesting one for you - I am flying domestically on a couple of QF flights in the coming fortnight and have noticed that all the seats in the front half of the plane are unavailable. Am I seriously that late in reserving seats and they're all gone, or is there a policy where...

    Crazy Stopovers + Discounts

    Hi all, In the past I have been able to land a random stopover and it cost no more than the straight leg. For example adding in 24 hour stopovers in Singapore and Doha on the way to London cost less than a straight Sydney-Doha-London route on Qatar and in 2013 I landed a stopover in Rome flying...

    Booking via Qantas vs Webjet

    The $700 price is also on Qantas for flights to Shanghai, I believe it's because I am booking so far in advance.

    Booking via Qantas vs Webjet

    Hi all, I've been very fortunate to receive some funding to do a small (2-3 week) round of study in China next year. Once my host university confirms dates, I need to be super quick in booking flights to ensure time off work, etc. Looking at the approximate dates on the Qantas site, I came...

    Starting Again...

    Yeah, it was the Singapore/Virgin thing that makes them appealing. Do you know if it is possible to redeem Velocity points with SA?

    This is definitely do-able, especially if you are able to fly ex. Brisbane to Espiritu Santo.
