    The Velocity Status Run Master thread

    Good morning all, I am about to book flights to Europe as a VA Gold. I would like to make the most of this trip re the flight sectors flown and the SC's. Obviously I am also trying not to spent too much but we can all agree that its a bit of a game we like to play and play well. So I am...

    Velocity Gold to Tokyo

    OK thats great. I will research and head to the travel agent to see what they say. I was wondering whether the 50/70/100% bonus velocity points only applied to bookings made through the virgin website. They are about $100 more expensive compared to skyscanner for instance. Thanks for all...

    Velocity Gold to Tokyo

We have chosen to go to Myoko Kogen and stay at the Morino Lodge. This looks great and the guy has been very helpful. They...

    Velocity Gold to Tokyo

    Yeah these trips require loads of research. What do you mean with SG? Sometimes I get lost in the abbreviations on this site... Ha ha. I'm Velocity Gold. What is the lounge situation like at Narita airport? I think with SQ we can fly into either.. I have been to the jetstar lounge and it...

    Velocity Gold to Tokyo

    The aerotel is great for a rest. We stayed there in June. Small world... we stayed at the Rosenheim too. Its very convenient but I wouldn't say its amazing. It really depends on which room you get. Our first room has duct tape around the toilet seat to keep it together. We complained and got one...

    Velocity Gold to Tokyo

    Thank you so much for the information! Yes we are going to the snow, possibly to Hakuba. We went there in 2015 and it was amazing! Excellent snow quality (powder up to your hips when you come to a stop) and a great little town in general. Nozawa Onsen is excellent too! Do you still get SC's...

    Good morning! We're looking at flying from the Gold Coast or Brisbane to Tokyo in early March 2017. As Velocity Gold, I would love to use it to update my SC's, spend some time in the airport lounge and take full advantage of the gold status. I am looking to get some advice on what would be the...

    Virgin to Amsterdam, desperate for some help!!

    Hi AFF, Happy mothers day! In mid June we're flying BNE - SIN - AMS and return AMS - SIN - BNE via Perth. As a VA member I booked VA tickets to earn points and to be able to use my 160k for a possible upgrade for myself and my wife. I was fully aware that these flights are operated by SQ and it...

    Help me sort my Freq Flyer programs

    I actually booked these flights to keep my status with A3 as my card says 26/1/2016. I called A3 but they wouldn't budge. Indeed, no luck with the programs :-( My goal is to use my redemptions for flights to Europe. This is why I have started the velocity (with possibilities on SA) programme...
