    Qantas observations as a VA flyer

    Hard to disagree with ones observations is it not? But perhaps exciting that this could just be a string of poor experiences.... I think I could have been worded it better but you hit the nail on the head MEL_Traveller. Would far prefer them to just own the issue and get on with it than...

    Qantas observations as a VA flyer

    I've recently had to switch from VA to Qantas due to work arrangements. I've perhaps taken 6 flights in the last few weeks and there is a consistency of experience that I've observed. The main one is that the flights are ALWAYS late to depart. They board slowly. People have too much carry...

    VA Plat moving to NZ

    Well I think you have all just convinced me to stay with VA! No benefits in switching really it would seem though nzflygirl you make a valid case for ANZ program. I think I will re-qual VA and then see what I can earn on ANZ based on flying to the 2018 reset date and then make a call on which...

I have approached ANZ via the above contact details and they have asked for my Qantas statements however most of my flying has been done on Virgin. What do you think the liklihood of...

    B77W Business Class Seat Map - Updated!

    This is killing me. Booked on VA1 on 9 May (which has now reverted to old layout) and VA2 13 May. If I change my flight to the 8th do you think there is a significantly higher probability of picking up the new seat based on current insight?

    Delta or VA on J in May to LA

    Hi all, I have to head to the US in early May and have two options up to LA and keen to get opinions on what is the best seat. Have not flown VA or Delta J long haul before as previously used SQ and ANZ. Would be great to know whether any of the upgraded VA 777's will be operational on those...

    MEL-MUC-MEL on VFF points ($40)

    Singapore stop over not critical - would be a added bonus. Was also probably more leaning to SQ due to the product - I haven't experienced J on Etihad but have on SQ. Milan would probably be fine I would say however Rome will be a closer flight for us. I guess the ultimate outcome will be to...

    MEL-MUC-MEL on VFF points ($40)

    Thanks very much greenfish A couple of questions: Outbound all makes sense and looks like a few options Flying home from Zurich is fine - really anywhere within similar distance of Munich would be suitable. Shorter the better. We are likely however to be connecting from the south of Italy or...

    MEL-MUC-MEL on VFF points ($40)

    Hi there. Bit of a challenge and happy to pay $40 for a good solution. I am looking to take a holiday with my wife and 6mo baby. I am hoping to utilise Velocity FF points for most of the trip and have a bank of around 500k. Would be good to avail of guaranteed reward seats I guess. We are...
