Group One Nominees are still in Tier One last time I checked.... Right?

I know they moved to that zone pricing scheme which is lower all round, but OOL prices were extremely low to begin with so they have increased a little!

 

[yohy?!]

Hopefully being able to travel on SQ and NZ will make up for the increases - I'll be interested to see how the next lot of special fares for staff family and friends looks though

Hopefully!

Although I don't know about SQ. they can be pretty stingy when it comes to staff travel.

Turns out there is now Tier one(Main), Tier One(second level) and then Tier Two....
Tier Two can not fly alone on Virgin Australia...All changes October 31st

I'm so confused. Things have changed so much in the past few months.

What happened to Group One Nominees, and then Group Two Nominees? nice and simple.

Umm LiamR - did I miss a meeting where you announced you were VA staff during your stinging critiques of QF - bit confused here.

No. I don't work for them, but somebody very close to me. Does.

I don't have Qantas, I think they are a good airline. I just prefer to fly Virgin lately, better service hands down.

No offence but for me personally some of your heated criticism of QF loses its impact now as I personally see it as a vested interest.

An example of my 'heated criticism' of Qantas would be...

Why? Even if he does have a vested interest, if Liam's critiques are all factually correct, why does any apparent or perceived bias affect the validity of the argument?

 

[simongr]

First - without evidence there is no validation that the critiques are correct.

Second and I whole heartedly apologise in to Liam on this - but I had an impression of his posts as being quite anti-QF but having looked through the last 60 in the past few minutes it was just my impression rather than an actuality.
