I'm looking at transferring from VA to KF and noticed a few people mention that their Krisflyer accounts where due to expire which has got me a little confused...i understand KF points expire after 36 months, but does the account expire for some reason? I'm assuming perhaps due to non-activity...

Hi all, Just wondering what the general consensus was around the use of Velocity rewards points to pay for a Virgin Australia Holiday package? Good, bad or indifferent? Thanks, Brendan

The Star Alliance lounge @ LAX TBIT is very nice. It is the best lounge i have visited so far. I suggest giving yourself lots of time, book in a shower near to boarding when you arrive, enjoy some dinner before the crowd arrives, and then head to the outside terrace for drinks and the view.

This sucks!!! Way to go VA, you've lost my loyalty.

I can confirm the forward mini Y cabin does open up for SG >48 hours before the flight. I have now moved up to 22 A, couldnt do it myself though had to ring the velocity call centre. Should help me beat the rush at LAX.

Sounds like a plan, thanks David!

Appreciate your response David! I was under the impression that VA INTL didnt have ONCI? If so is this the same as their domestic opening up around 24 hours before departure? Otherwise i will ask at the desk on Sunday. Cheers!

Hi, does anyone know if rows 20-24 of the mini Y cabin opens up to SG closer to the flight? Im on the VA flight on Sunday currently in 29 H & K. Thanks

I was going to go with the boarding pass as well. Flying on 737 SYD-Brisbane 0800

Im SG and checked into my VA flight yesterday using the app and selected seat 4E which is showing on my electronic boarding pass. When i log into velocity i am still sitting in 7E which was originally selected when i booked the ticket, with all rows forward of me showing as blank. So, the...

I've booked VA flights through to JFK and returning LAX-SYD in early May last month but have still applied for the promo. In the past i had outstanding bookings on Etihad and then applied to these promotions and received the bonus so i cant see why this would be any different. You think you...

Re: Delta Upgrade, i was referring to the complementary Delta Comfort+ which are available to gold members <24hrs out from the flight. Just wondering if i get it and my partner does not i will be in trouble haha

Thanks for the response Andye, that was what i was thinking but am yet to travel with my partner yet so just wanted to confirm a few things. Any ideas on the upgrades for Golds on delta to economy + ? Would it only be myself that i can upgrade <24hrs or would it be for the both of us if on the...

As a a gold member which of my benefits is my travelling partner entitled to? Obviously I can guest +1 to the lounge but can they checkin at the biz counter with me, priority board, enter through Syd premium entry etc if we are on the same ticket and they are only a normal velocity member...

I called VA and they said to email them 48 hours after the flight which will get me to gold and then they will send me an authorisation letter from them which states my eligibility as a gold member. Thanks for the tips

I have a virgin flyer credit card and a velocity platinum amex, neither of which im aware of give me lounge access in FCO, although i could well be wrong?

Hi All, Current Silver Velocity but will make Gold when i touch down from my SYD-LHR flight with Etihad in August. I return back to Sydney in September Departing from Rome (No lounge access here by the looks of things as VA Gold?) which is code share with Alitalia , with a 5 hour stop over in...

Oh Hey Kevrosmith! Hope your well mate, no unfortunately wont help us, but appreciate the thought! Have a good weekend!

Any VA members able to guest my partner and I into the Virgin Australia lounge at Sydney airport this evening around 6pm? many thanks
