Folks,
I've been a QFF member since 1995 and in more recent years, Virgin, then joined Cathay and very recently Etihad and Baltic Air.
A change in my client base saw my flights move from being 90% Qantas 10% Virgin to now being 90% Virgin and 10% Qantas. The Etihad and Baltic usually tie into my overseas Virgin legs.
I have set up the family pooled feature on Virgin and hope to score Platinum by the end of 2018.
My questions are along these lines.
a) If I book a Virgin flight with an Etihad leg what rules apply to the SC's i.e. which membership they can be claimed/directed to i.e. Etihad flight SC's to Etihad only now I am an Ethihad member or can I ask for these SC's be redirected to my Virgin SC tally?
b) Can I solely book an Etihad flight and claim the SC's on my Velocity membership?
c) Does it depend on which website I make my booking as I do sometimes use Skyscanner, Matrix etc if I'm not using the actual airlines website to book the flights.
d) I have held off getting my wife joining Etihad until I get a better understanding of the above rules.
Hope that I have made my questions clear.
Cheers
Rono
