I’m looking at some award flights for which I’ll need a total of ~80k velocity points.

I can convert ~40k flybuys points to 20k VA points under the current 15% bonus but I then hit my max 138k points transfer limit for the year.

Mrs H family pools her VA points to me. Can Mrs H transfer the remaining points required from her FB account? She’s yet to use any of her 138k allowance.

If yes, willthat sweep across automatically in the same way it does with flights? If so, any idea how long that will take?

Yes. I have done it a few times.
My partner transfers his flybuys to his velocity account which is part of my family pool.
Shows in my velocity account within minutes.

Ps Coles spend also earns status credits.
If Mrs H has her flybuys linked to velocity the status credits earned will also pool to you.
