After being QF Plat on & off for a number of years I decided to start using VA and have now achieved VA Platinum. Now have to work out how to get the best out of Platinum. So I have two questions.
1) I have a flight booked from BNE to SIN in Dec in Economy booked via VA site with flight being a codeshare with EY. Did seat allocation at the time on the VA site however advised by EY I could not do seat selection till the day of flight at the check in counter.
As a VA Platinum would I have improved chances of getting the selected seats.
2) I have a complimentary flights offer although there appears to be changes afoot from Dec 1st 2013. Interested to understand if the best way to get value from these is to book flights to Melbourne and then use the complimentary upgrade option. Would this give me J class status credits and points.
Any other thoughts on how to maximise the benefits would be appreciated.
Thanks
