Anyone booked through Bravofly?

They have Emirates flights SYD-BKK with QF codeshare cheaper than the Emirates flights and just a little more expensive than the QF flights.

The timing of the Emirates flights is also more suitable.

I have read some of the reviews on TripAdvisor and they do sound dodgy.

The question though is how dodgy?

Never heard of them and I have never heard anyone mention about them on the forum.

Their link comes up from Skyscanner.

I've just booked a one way flight BNE-DRW with Bravofly. Couldn't add Velocity details on the website or at Virgin. Have sent a message off to Virgin requesting this. Will see how this goes. Otherwise, will add at checkin. Furthermore, the option for baggage wasn't there.
However, saved $19 on booking due to no Credit Card charges and a cheaper price overall by c$11.

If you are Gold Velocity, I would certainly contemplate this, as it is a cheaper way to fly if flexibility and baggage is not needed - at least for domestic. Would be curious to know what others think.

I has just occurred to me why Bravofly would be cheaper - NO GST!

Have you got an invoice with the words "Tax invoice & the Australian company ABN" ?

Not applicable, there's no GST on international flights regardless of where they are purchased from.

You've got a different view on what is international to me

That'll teach me to speed read, I only saw the SYD-BKK reference in the first post.

They are both International flights.... from the EU

Yes, but GST is not an EU tax. Not this particular GST anyway.

I booked my Velocity Gold Status spouse on Bravofly, as the price was significantly cheaper. We had to fight to get status for that journey. Result. Never again.

Booked but not flown. It was indeed much cheaper to go through them. Although after I had booked, I read reviews that they suck when you need to make any changes.:shock:
