    Is there still a Platinum or Gold call centre service ?

    Does VA still have a (separate?) Gold/Platinum service desk ? In the past it'd prompt you to put your FF number in and then redirect you.. but at the moment that doesn't seem to exist.. The premier service desk was always easier to deal with. Both were fine but clearly more training and more...

    Is there a secondary market for VA travel credit (Gumtree?) and how is this managed at all ?

    I've noted a bunch of posts which indicate a lot of people have travel credit with VA. What are people actually doing at this point ? 1) Waiting to see what happens ? 2) Booking things using the credit ? To then cancel and recredit in the future? 3) Selling it on a secondary market (here...

    Best FF program(s) to use for AU-CAN-EU-CAN-AU trip ?

    G'day, My Mum's booked a trip in late July/August and I'm trying to figure out what if any FF she should try to credit against. Her outbound leg is flying Air Canada between MEL and YVR and onto YYZ. Wish I'd known in advance as I might have booked her on VA metal for part of it (as that...
