Or released around same time as negative press layoffss before Christmas to try to counter? Very unlikely, pre Covid VA had a lot of cash stuck in the country. They had to sell tickets in local currency but couldn’t pull that cash back to Australia.

So many things to unpack from this press release but just a couple: 1. The first paragraph makes mention of the NRL launch, such thing isn't expected until 2028 so launching a route in 2026 is "ambitious" to say the least, will it run for 2 years in preparation of the NRL? 2. Announced at a...

This has not new and has been the case for 10+ years.

Whilst unique it’s not really 5th freedom. European airlines can fly any Euro routes under an open skies agreement. Very similar to how the AU/NZ agreement allows JQ to operate NZ domestic flights.

I’d be pushing for a refund and booking elsewhere if the price difference isn’t crazy. On one hand Air NZ continues to stuff people around (I’ve had multiple flights this year changed but I’m really flexible so will often ask for a route via a different city with 24 hour stop) but on the other...

Ever stayed at Raffles, if so how does it compare?

No clue how long but I suspect a while especially after all the recent press plus extra moving parts we don't use. I think what a lot of people are missing is that yes part of the upgrade was a new look website/app but also the servers which until recently had no security certificates...

VA website does suggest weather. It's not a generic BNE port message as other flights show other info making me wonder if the aircraft was damaged during this afternoons storm?

Been a known thing that throwing in reg (standing for registered) takes you back to the old site Australia's official weather forecasts & weather radar - Bureau of Meteorology

Prior to covid you could in J order anything off the Y menu for free. Now they have a different drinks selection for J (which is ironically a step down from the paid options in Y) and then a "pantry" selection of snacks.

Assuming you're a returning subscriber it's a slightly worse deal per point but I guess if you've got a lot of Accor stay coming up over the next 4 months then could be worthwhile. 1 month at ~AU$130 = 5000 points or 0.026c per point. 4 months (first at ~$130 then $186 x3 so $688 total) =...

For those who've had it before 30% off first month only. Can cancel as soon as signed up to ensure it doesn't roll over.

Force recollection as VAs policy is not to through check luggage. Have you tried calling and explaining what you are after?

Yes. This has been the case the last few cycles where a different slightly worse deal for former subscribers. Nope, sale runs through to 3 December so no rush I guess.

It's now been posted on the All Signature website, deal goes live 23 Nov Brazil time so in a couple of hours: For those who've had it before the 30% off brings the highest absolute plan to BRL 454.3 or about AU$130. This comes with 5000 reward points worth 100 euros (~AU$178 at the current...

Your travel date is still during school holidays and in the middle of a small tennis event. Just because it's two months away doesn't mean anything and in fact if you look at closer dates you'll find more seats as it's not impacted by either of the above.

I've seen some reports that QF Gold/Plat get access to the ICN oneworld lounge when on JQ in a similar setup to CHC/ZQN partner lounges.

I've had some, at first I thought overly sweet but in reality it's quite dry.

They are all over the place with the promos. LoyaltyLobby got hold of some T&Cs that had 40/35/30% off which weren't updated so indicated 1 November to 22 November. That was quickly removed and replaced by a Pre black Friday sale ranging from 30-15% off having dates 10-12 November (brazil...

Maybe VA can get it back 🤣
