Does Double Status Credit Terminate Tonight (Sunday November 13)

[dsotm]

I noticed this as well. I was going to book some flights OOL-SYD rtn but watched some TV and went to bed......forgot all about it, so I miss out regardless. It does however free me up to book those flights outside the DSC window of travel (going to see Picasso which is on until March) which will hopefully allow me to grab a couple of happy hour specials instead, which offset missing the DSC promo!

FWIW, I also read it to include yesterday, but certainly concede the wording to be disputable. A point in favour of that being the case, was my invitation email was sent to me on the 31-10-11 so if I raced in and booked straight away, I surely would been included as there was no "start" date mentioned in the email......the start date of 31-10-11 has been mentioned as as one pillar of those "between" dates, same as the 13-11-11.

As I said recently.....perhaps we over-analize things a bit here on AFF.........now I wonder if I can argue I thought the 13-11-11 really meant the 14-11-11 to still give me a chance

I went ahead and booked the family Christmas holiday MEL-OOL-SYD-MEL. I have a Brisbane business trip (also booked yesterday) in a week so I'll see what happens with credits, but I'm confident it's November 13 inclusive.

What I don't understand is why anyone would make a booking without picking up the phone and confirming with them first.

You can argue the point all you like later on, but if they say it's not inclusive and don't give you the credits, you're not getting the credits.

I would have loved to have been wrong on this, but it's quite disappointing that no one else felt the need to make the call to check it out themselves as well.

Well I had to go on either QF or VA at those times anyway. One thing; the Double Credits promo banner on the Velocity website was taken down after midnight (00.00 November 14)
