As someone that always chooses a window seat so I can see out, crew locking them coughs me to absolute tears. I want to be able to see out when I want to - it’s not often that I get to travel some of the routes the 787 flies and I pay good money/points to do so. Yes, always need to be considerate...

Also just did my first flight on this plane followed by a connecting 737 straight after. A220 windows are much nicer for looking out, seats comfortable (especially the extra legroom ones) and judging by how shabby the inflight screen on the 737 was, I think I actually prefer the seat back set up...

Had the poached chicken dish today. About three tiny bits of chicken and the rest broth and noodles. Dish its self was fine and the flavour from the broth was good though I spiced it up a bit with chili flakes and onion from the self-serve area. Imagine it’s a hell of a lot cheaper for them...

That trick worked perfectly - thanks.

Just tried the Malaysian Airlines trick. Successfully selected seats for an economy GRU-MVD flight with the same error displayed as mentioned above, however still wasn't able to select BOS-GRU business seating for some reason. It just wouldn't seem to register/save.

I’m sure Virgin would love it if we all stuck to sparkling. It would be cheaper for them. Hey why not buy some bottles of cordial and we could add water from the tap.

I note they’ve changed over the beers in the past few months too. Gone are the easy drinking Asahis and in are Pirate Life and Pure Blonde. Pirate Life - sure. But ditching Asahi for pure blonde - a change for the worse IMHO. Also, wish they would bring back tap beer, haven’t seen it since...

I can’t remember the last time I saw much of anything decent food wise in a VA lounge, especially the big ones like Melbourne.

Thanks - yep, it’s appeared now along with an unexpected but pleasant surprise of status support rollover.

This seems to have happened to me. Achieved green tier for the second time last membership year - no status credits offered. Just ticked over to my new membership year on 1 July - green tier has reset to zero, still no status credits. Not sure why I bothered with green tier. Qantas took my...

ADL-DRW (Alliance) Shepards pie was the only option after take off followed by cheese and crackers before landing. A bottle of water in between. Serve of Shepards pie was half the size of the pre-Covid dinner boxes you got on MEL-SYD. Wouldn’t really say it was a full service airline offering…

That salad looks like a huge improvement. Not sure how I feel about soup featuring/substituting as a main dish offering though - sure, if that’s all you feel like, but seems more like it should be an entree or side offering, in addition to the main. I remember some flight attendants used to...

Those corn fritters were the only option on my CBR-BNE flight on Wednesday evening…. Would have preferred a non vego option but was absolutely no choice on my flight. And, yes, bring back the meal boxes and choice of pre-Covid.

Ugh, that awful plastic tray is exactly what my disgusting SYD-WEL economy pasta came in last month too. Not sure who their caterer is at the moment but bring back the hot boxed meals - tasted much better. Also tend to agree that the current business catering generally reflects what should...

They’re just too bloody hard to use for any decent international redemptions, particularly if you’re using the online system rather than phone. Availability just isn’t there and no business on the likes of Qatar has seriously devalued the program for me. I’m currently points club plus but...

Just had the beef on MEL-CBR this evening. Was the only option but was absolutely delicious. Service was very efficient and good. WEL-MEL this arvo was a lamb skan_ or the very common creamy chicken. Tried the lamb which was alright. Service was awfully awkward and amateur. Was stuck in...

Yep, I've had similar problems - couldn't find any domestic flights. Also tried to book SIN-SYD-CBR. Could only get flights to show for SIN-SYD and removing the Virgin domestic leg.

Maybe it fits the aircraft equipment/storage better? Then again, I think you can purchase normal sized cans on JetStar…

Yeah, that’s not great - the no choice during the day I can live with but in the evening choice of meals and alcohol should be standard.

ADL-SYD, a bit after 9am. “Breakfast Tart” - was alright, very salty, very filling.
