I'm hoping to book a trip from SYD to LHR soon so Virgin's email offering a chance to win 500,000 points was timely, as unlikely as actually winning it might be. I'd actually almost forgotten you could hook up with VS out of HKG for the trip to the UK. Anyway, I actually don't mind which way I get there if I'm sitting in at least PE. My goals are:
My other option is SQ PE, of which I also don't have any experience (I'm familiar with SQ J, which I love but can't stretch for this one). Booking as a VA codeshare should get me the SCs but clearly I lose the Plat bonus on that one.
Many thanks to anyone willing to share opinions and experiences.
- PE for as much as possible (I'm aware VA to HKG means Y, YX or J are only choices, I could probably handle that)
- Maximum status credits
- Maximum points
- Lounge access (I'm VA Plat)
