VA Extra seat request booking. All Au domestic flight. 48 hrs prior. F100. Paid Aud$6xx. When I rang to book, that was all I had to pay. No online check in possible? Rang the GCC and agent couldn't tell me why. Maybe they (VA) really do want me to fly QF again. They really make it hard for us to...

I have an unusual entry in my QFF account titled “loyalty bonus offer”. I’m quite sure it’s not the status bonus you get at 500SC/ 1,000SC etc, because I’ve been tracking that closely to get to 1,000SC before the end of March which is my reset date. As you can see I’m only at 870, so...

I can't see this mentioned anywhere, so I will risk starting a new thread! Got an email last Thursday (Jan 17th) outlining their latest promotion to get you to transfer Flybuys across. TRANSFER YOUR FLYBUYS POINTS TO VELOCITY TO WIN! Everyone's a winner thanks to flybuys and Velocity...

Hi All, I need some help with retaining Velocity Platinum status by End of June 2019. I am looking to travel to Canada Calgary from Melbourne in April easter time returning 1 week of may 2019. I need 646 status credit & 5 eligible sectors by 13 June2019 What are the options & how can I do...

I may be stupid but when I go into either Virgin or Velocity when logged in I can't see a list of upcoming bookings for love or money without entering a reservation number. Surely it's there somewhere. From Virgin it wants the booking reference and guest's last name (it's me!!!) and if you...

When renewing Qantas Club that was joined using the ANZ Black Credit card it is now asking for my Corporate scheme number. Does anyone know what the ANZ Corporate scheme number is to renew?? Cheers

How do you think Qantas should reward long term FF loyalty? After 22 years of membership, well over 28,000 lifetime status credits, 13 years as Platinum and 3 years as Platinum One, this year I will fail to retain Platinum for the first time in over 15 years. I’ve had to cancel 2 trips that...

Hi all :) Haven't posted for a while as I have done a lot less flying in recent years than I used to.... But here we start again... :) Question around the value of Velocity frequent flyer status.... I am currently Velocity Nothing (Red).... As of this afternoon, I have 265 status credits BUT...

Hi, I got 2x Virgin Australia lounge passes with my Virgin High Flyer CC I am already Virgin Gold but I can't see where you see the lounge passes since they redesigned the website? or don't I get them as I'm already gold? I am flying with 2 people soon and was hoping I could let one in with...

I need to book some SQ flights but rather than just booking Business or first using full points redemption, I want to book upgradable fare even though I have plenty of points. Main reason is to ensure I earn enough credits to retain Velocity status this year. I know upgrade availability is...

Hi everyone, I'm thinking of applying for the ANZ Frequent Flyer Black card (120k bonus Qantas points with a $7,500 spend). I'm just wondering if anyone knows if there is a minimum salary required for this? Thanks

Hi all... Due to me being overseas and not keeping an eye on it - I need to transfer my 300k AMEX points out before the devaluation hits.... My situation? 1) I will be back in Melbourne from the end of the year 2) I do most of my flying into Asia/Japan and domestically (although both...

The following OzB thread came up on my Google feed today. It purported a 15% VFF bonus if you transfer by Midnight tonight. 15% Bonus Points When Converting from Flybuys to Velocity I was not 'targeted' but gave it a go anyway (via VPN as I am OS ATM) and the purported 15% bonus credited to my...

Reminiscing as I shredded my old escape club Mk 2 card. Can anyone come up with a more trashed brand? I think I would nominate Country Comfort-Constellation-Silverneedle-Next as surely the first prize getters for trashing their loyalty program (and customers' and hotels' loyalty alike) I...
