    Velocity review date mechanism

    Sort of related.....How long are accounts typically under review? My review date was end of June, I'm positive I've requalified for gold but still under review. Thanks all

    Meet me in the SQ Lounge thread

    John, do you have any experience with the Singapore Airlines Perth lounge? I'm VA Gold flying with my wife and 2 kids (8 and 5) later this year, I figured we won't all get in but might be worth a shot? Cheers

    Virgin Australia Discover Gold (Status Match)

    I took advantage of the discover gold status match early 2022. Qualified for real gold quite easily actually and am pretty happy on this side of the fence! I vaguely remember that when I took the status match if I did qualify I could gift gold to my partner? I can't see the email to confirm...

    The Virgin Australia Newbie Questions Thread

    Hi Champions, I'm new to VA, have gold via status match from QF and have loved it to be honest. I just booked a trip to Perth to coughet via Singapore with Singapore Air. My travel agent is suggesting I join Kris Flyer. Should I join or just use my VA number? Gold comes with benefits in SIA...

    What happens to all the grounded aircraft ?

    VA9xx_ numbers are used for their freighter network. Not sure they are exclusively for freighters but all those I use are 9xx_ numbers. Eg: VA9563 flies daily MEL-PER 5am scheduled departure.

    QF cutback backs - what’s next?

    While QF is still flying I'd think you are safe. AJ is probably banking on loyalty/points to give the group even more revenue. Launching Points Club in such difficult times probably points to that in my completely uninformed, humble opinion.

    SYD airside bag drop?

    Sometimes I feel that the big roll a board is a pain in the a$$, that's all. Generally I fly HLO but I was pretty sure my main bag would be over weight after collecting stuff for work so was prepared to check it. I was just under so carried it on.

    SYD airside bag drop?

    I just went HLO. I was surprised that I was within the limits and with the 3hr delay I wanted to be able to take up any flight options in case there was even more issues. The lounge team (who were really good this time) seemed to think I would need to go back landside to check my bag. They...

    SYD airside bag drop?

    Hi team, I'm flying SYD-PER this evening, if I take my bag throughto the QP have a shower and put on fresh clothes for the flight is there somewhere I can check my bag in airside? Or do I need to exit and go to the regular bag drop? Thanks in advance. Cheers

    Strange seat selection

    Please stay where you are and embrace this weirdo. If you could please grill them for their motivation and report back for us I think we would all be appreciative. # But still hoping you get upgraded!

    Has Qantas "enhanced" its points reinstatement challenge?

    Burn! Pass me the Aloe Vera. Sorry you have to engage with us lesser minded folks. Understanding things is hard :(

    Has Qantas "enhanced" its points reinstatement challenge?

    If you continue to play in their sandpit you will continue to earn points and your points will not expire. If you are genuinely concerned you can always hop out of the sandpit, it is not quicksand after all!

    No, I literally have no plans for travel til late Feb that I will book soon but have not yet searched for. My FF year ends Feb 28, I do not need any more SC this year, comfortably retaining gold but nowhere near platinum. Just about to hit lifetime silver and shoot me if I keep going long...

    Intentionally triggering a targeted 50% bonus SC promo

    I received a 50% SC offer yesterday. Book this week for travel up to mid May.....for travel to PERTH. I live in Perth! It did appear I could book any flights with a QF number to get teh 50% extra SC. Here's the kicker, I have not searched a flight on Qantas.com in at least 6 weeks. Maybe...

    Boarding pass in Apple Wallet no longer

    On Monday I flew PER-ADL and loaded my boarding pass to me Apple Wallet as per normal. On my return on Wednesday the pass would not load on to the Wallet App from the Qantas App. I asked at the lounge for a printed boarding pass and mentioned to the lounge staff that I was unable to load the BP...
