    Is it Time to transfer/withdraw points from Velocity?

    Yep, it's a deliberate removal to stop people redeeming.

    Is it Time to transfer/withdraw points from Velocity?

    Virgin Australia Business Class - Meals, Menus & Service

    Lunch onboard VA 741 MEL-OOL. I had both options on my tray because my wife was holding the little one next to me. It was disappointing to say the least. The chicken sandwich didn't taste fresh and the cold noodle salad was tasty but there wasn't enough so i was left hungry. A packet of chips...

Last time (2018) i had SQ boarding pass and wanted to sneak in for a coffee prior to going...

    'Shadow' tactics

    Last month flying back on VA24 i asked the Virgin staff in the LAX EK lounge if they could block the seat between the wife and I (WP). They said they don't block seats, but lucky on both VA23 and VA24 we had the middle seat free in row 27, and the rows behind us were chokers. Maybe the local VA...

    Fly Ahead and Platinum Upgrade

    I've done fly ahead on plat upgrade couple times, and in one case moved to later flight so i could fly with a colleague who was running late. If you're on flexi fare i find they're very accommodating - providing J cabin has space. Don't expect meal service if you do fly ahead though, but you...

    Why doesn't VA have an [Android] app?

    Singapore Airlines Velocity Redemption no Lounge Access?

    I also would like to know this. I'd say its an error with the webpage. Pretty sure rewards bookings include lounge access when booked through codeshare partners. Anyone know for sure?

    Have VA 'enhanced' Agoda? [Yes!]

    I went to book through Velocity Agoda to find it has been replaced with Virgin Australia Holidays. https://www.velocityfrequentflyer.com/content/Earn/Accommodation/book-via-agoda/ What a shame. It was much better website than VA holidays. I wonder if it's still the same Agoda prices and...
