I'm not normally one to make a thread about such things but is it just me... or are VA's Flexi fares downright crazy?
I have 4 WP upgrades to use by 12th June so trying to find a good way to use them but the flexi fares are so high it would be better to fly on points. These are all for MEL cup weekend in November.
E.G
$340 difference between Saver & Flexi. Now that flexi doesn't give anything you could call a meal... that's a lot of money for change of date/time etc!
No direct MEL-BNK flights so get penalised here..
$389 to sit in a 737 with ordinary J...
Maybe I'm the only one.. but I've just about had enough of the way Flexi's keep going up and up.. yet have bugger all value.
Thinking I'll just drop to SG and let the 4 upgrades pass.
