Hi Everyone,

I've evolved from being mildly interested to an avid reader of every AFF tweet so I thought I'd better join.

I last used my points during the Double Credits promo to purchase J flights to ensure I make WP. Is this a good use of points?

Just wondering if anyone else is worried about Virgin. My mate works for them and says it's only a matter of time before they fold.

Cheers,
Chad
 
Welcome. Double Status Credits is one of the many things I've learnt to utilise to my advantage through this forum
 
Don't leave us hanging Chad, tell us about your favourite WP benefit. That will tell you if it's worthwhile.
 
I'm a bit confused by your post, you won't get the double status credits promo on reward seats.

Well I haven't got WP yet as I haven't taken that flight/trip yet but the QC is always oacked when I leave for work so happy to go to Perth Business Lounge instead. Better brekkie
 
Welcome to AFF @Chad.

I think Virgin will be around for a while. We wouldn't want to be in a Monopoly again.

Did you use Points + Pay, or a classic award/upgrade for J?

You will get SC when using Points + Pay, but also get worse value per point compared to a cash fare.

You won't get SC when redeeming for a classic award/upgrade, but will get better value per point compared to a cash fare.

If you weren't far off WP (say within 100SC) and Points + Pay combined with DSC gets you there, I'd say that's a pretty good result.

P.S. Welcome!

Yes I used P+P and I did have to use a LOT of points compared to a comparative CA flight. Thanks
