OLCI and you lose your flexibility, so I don't.
Still really! It's rather silly I feel.

With that recent promo, using the Check-in Kiosks provided for an entry so I would, say, get to MEL with carry-on only and head to a Kiosk upstairs to do so before doubling back to the lounge (although I do note there is now a Kiosk set up in the Lounge entrance foyer).I nearly always check-in at the lounge or check-in counters. There was recently a promo of sorts (competition I think) to try to get people to use on-line/mobile check in, so they must want us to use it..........presumably!

Has anyone ever OLCI'd on QF with a similar ticket (e.g. Flexi Saver up to full Business) and been able to change or cancel thereafter?
Done it a number of times, reservations have been able to regain control back from the airport and then rebook me no issues.
I always check in the night before - including for the flexi ticket on return. I've never had an issue getting my flight changed in the lounge in the afternoon if I am early.
Slightly different situation, where I have already checked in but wanted to change my seat, seems almost impossible to do so online now and trying to get the call centre to do it was equally unhelpful. They stated they could not do it as the flight is under airport control. Now I have a BP with a different seat, and it appears I have lost my seat assignment while trying to change the seat online.
I was Silver when I booked this flight but now back to Red , however apparently my status holds until the end of this month, although my account now shows that I have been reviewed.
Can anyone please suggest what I can do to fix the issue please?
Thanks.
I can't quite recall it, but I thought VA only really let you OLCI once and then that's it. Anything else you need to do or change needs to be done at the airport.
I think some people may have called VA - particularly elites (e.g. Platinums) - and had the agent "un-check" them (basically then you're returned to a state before you checked in) so they could then repeat the process.
its under airport control so she cant do anything.
Thanks. Since I am now a Red, my call was answered in the Philippines and was not terribly helpful. I guess I was concerned that they could just cancel the whole flight which would leave me in a worse mess. She basically just kept saying its under airport control so she cant do anything. I even tried to get a supervisor but she ignored that request, so I just gave up in the end. I am on a very early flight out so I doubt I will have no time to see an agent at the airport. My BP will have a different seat to what my online booking shows, not sure what VA do about that. Bit of a mess
