Things Virgin Australia Does & Doesn’t Do Well

[ChrisFlyer]

What's the deal with arrivals boards in the Lounge? They always put me off when I'm trying to find my flight and then realise I'm looking at arrivals not departures. 50 per cent of the boards for less than 1% of the people in the Lounge. Can you even get into the Lounge if you are waiting on an arrival? I guess if you are meeting someone when you've flown from somewhere else then there's a case for it. But I don't think they are necessary. I may be wrong.

Handy to check where your bag is about to emerge if you've just popped in for a coffee, but particularly in places like Melbourne that seem to love calling boarding well before it actually starts, very useful to see if a plane has even arrived at the gate, and if so, how recently. Saves the stroll to the gate only to see that there isn't even a plane there yet. (Yes, they should make fix the boarding calls, but for now... )
