I thought there was a thread detailing the relative merits of travelling on SQ metal with a VA issued ticket compared to using a SQ issued ticket.
Anyway, not being able to find it, here goes.
Putting the cost of the ticket aside, as a Platinum Member travelling on a VA issued ticket on SQ operated flights from SYD-HKG return via SIN I understand that I would get 100% bonus points whereas if I travel on a regular SQ issued ticket there are no bonus points. Also, status credits are the same on either ticket.
The other advantage with a VA issued ticket is the crediting of eligible flight sectors for status requalification
If I'm not right I'd appreciate being corrected.
Thanks.
