Nope, must be VA wet lease on a VA code and ticket. https://www.velocityfrequentflyer.com/flying-status/flying-with-virgin-australia/flight-upgrades#upgrade-info

A good ibis upgrades. From Auckland Ibis budget that's upgraded me and given a handwritten card/chocolate (a welcome amenity greater than more who are meant to...) to the Ibis in Madrid as per my above post #3582. Whilst they don't have to I guess if the room is there it's a no brainer win for...

Noise cancelling headphones on and just ignore. In these sort of situations I struggle to see a situation where you'd "win", you've got no clue if their passive aggressive turns to aggressive. Sure it sucks for the crew but end of the day they are paid to deal with the travelling public (as...

System is back and now noticed that UA Micronesia destinations and flights appear on the VA website:

I think one of the NBN ground stations has been having issues causing no or reduced performance to certain beams. The way it works is one ground station powers a random selection of beams so such outage isn’t limited to a section of Australia but rather random areas. There are around 5 ground...

Potentially AA will give QF Main Cabin Extra officially?

I wonder if they'll copy QF and make it free for gold within 24 hours or even 3 hours before the flight (when lite fare seat selection opens)?

Both the upgrade and welcome amenity have a few exceptions:

Technically no upgrades at Ibis hotels and also same with the welcome amenity.

Weird stuff going on, 737 international flight I’m even seeing row 4 but at a cost. All others free as WP.

Not just TT but across the pacific on 737s. Now Row 4 has vanished as a cost seat but I'll stick with my extra legroom row 5.

Well they used to have a seperate menu for plat/diamond which had whiskey and other spirits on it.

Don’t know if it’s just time of year or events but the room rates can be crazy here, when I was looking to stay in Agra last mid December they wanted over au$2k for a standard room (everywhere else in town normal and quite at the Taj), room rates look to be usually around $500.

Or even just in general. Anyone can now have gold for $349 per year without even stepping foot into an Accor hotel.

I had the same room as SYD, stayed mid December: https://www.australianfrequentflyer.com.au/community/threads/how-does-accor-treat-you-as-an-elite-guest.58284/post-2958370 Room was clean enough but a little rough around the sides like paintwork etc could do with a touch up.

Reward seats on flights have now appeared and are even discounted under the current promo. At this stage most dates in Jun/Jul/Aug have space but do note this is the low season as it’s colder with some hotels on the island shut over this period.

Ah ok, didn’t realise they were already up to 3 domestic ones making this the 4th (probably was mentioned up thread 🤣 )

Is this still international fleet or has it moved onto the domestic subset yet?

It’s probably about a 10 min uber from most things (nothing walkable) with not a lot nearby but a really nice new modern hotel and good service (probably the best of all 3 Accor’s I stayed at in India but then also the most expensive). For my dates the Oberoi in Delhi was a little under double...

Looks almost the same view as what I had mid December. Now the app shows numbers looks like I was in Room 334. Odd the different amenity and must admit I never even thought about the metro, got an uber to/from the Taj Mahal and train station.
