fly ahead for short haul international

[yorgerg]

Hi everyone,
Just wondering has anyone had experience requesting fly ahead for international short haul like DPS-SYD? I know the rules said fly ahead is for domestic flight only, but I know people with luggage also got fly ahead even though the rules say otherwise.
Many thanks for your advices.

I doubt they would do it

Probably post-Qantas war, Virgin will stick to the rules (unless wallet is opened).

Very little chance unless it suits them, especially at an outstation.

As others have said .. next to no chance at all.

Looking at the flights from DPS to SYD , where there are 2 flights on the 1 day... one departs at 0010Hrs and the other departs at 2110Hrs .. not exactly practical to even try for fly ahead

If you really want to be on a flight, best to pay to change the ticket.
