Damn! just booked during that travel period last week! (did score $99 sale fares so cant complain)

$213.50 Flexi A330 MEL-PER!
 
Booked already. But looking very tempting for 2 unbooked flights that are planned for QF. Shame the standard flexi fare increased by about 6% overnight as well.

Hmmm... now to look at how many SC a MEL-OOL Flexi earns :D

Or just how cheap a status run I can get... :D

30, so $3.46 per SC.

That's pretty good.

Does this work with the complimentary one-time upgrades just given to Golds/Plats?

Business Class to PER for $215 would be excellent value and even having experienced the A330 Coast to Coast I'd be keen to do it again.

If I book 6x CNS-MEL upgrade with points to J can I change the date? As it will be Q/H class? I have done this before to an upgrade booking and didn't have to pay any cash difference.

I can't help you with an answer but that's not a bad idea! I am going to for silver and was going up there anyway. Will probably fall 80sc short (Feb anniversary) so may book MEL-OOL-MEL Flexi then upgrade, this giving me the flexibility.

Are there any better Status Runs than OOL-MEL Flexi?

This is why I love AFF - I don't often read V-Mail.

Booked a PER-MEL-PER, going to use my complimentary upgrade on one leg, half price points the other.

I'm going to the do the same. After flying the A330 coast to coast on the weekend, I want me some more of that!!!!!!!!
 
Re: Virgin 30% Off 48 Hour Sale PROMO CODE [On Sale: 22-23 Aug // Travel 8 Oct -14 De

If I do:

MEL-OOL (Flexi) = 30 SC

OOL-MEL (Business) = 60 SC

90 SC, is that correct?
 
Re: Virgin 30% Off 48 Hour Sale PROMO CODE [On Sale: 22-23 Aug // Travel 8 Oct -14 De

Assuming I book a flexi (which I rarely do anyway) I would be able to use my one of my four confirmed upgrades to J? As mentioned, SYD-PER vv is pretty good at around $215 mark, assuming its still there, I did check like 7hrs ago!

Correct only if these are the fares you originally purchase. If you use a points or complimentary upgrade to Business you will only get the flexi SC of 30

It is just one sale after another. Not complaining but let's hope this sale actually has the desired effect.
