    Melbourne to Europe in Business

    KVS Tool still exists, but I have always stayed away from it unless I really had to (I do not use Windows, and the KVS Tools developer, rather arrogantly, insists it is the user's fault if they do not use Windows). On occasions when I have bought/used it, I run it in VMware. I believe in voting...

    Checking in bags multiple times?

    If I understand you correctly, you want to check in multiple bags at different times; this is different to the title of your post: "check in bags multiple times". I only have experience with QF and VA: I have done this many times, as recently as a few weeks ago. You initially check in your...

    Using Virgin lounge after arrival

    As a reference point, I have, on more than one occasion, collected my rather large suitcases (plural) and got them through the X-ray machine to go to the lounge. Have done done both at T1 and T3 at MEL.

    Disappearing Status Credits

    So you had some flights on 24 Dec and some on 27 Dec. Processed date is of no relevance: you should have one (or mrore) entry for 24th and one or more for 27th as "Activity date". Do you have those in your account activity?

    Disappearing Status Credits

    I think there are 2 separate issues mixed together: 1) Unlike most other programs, Velocity uses a 12-month 'rolling window' for status. You must have earned 40 status credit sometime in late November/early December last year. The 12-moth rolling window means the 40 status credit earned more...

    Tricks regarding waitlisted booking

    Cannot answer other questions, but for the last one, of course you can. Waitlist for as many flights as you are comfortable booking, and hopefully one of them will be confirmed at some stage.

    Reward booking requiring full point total?

    I have seen this behaviour before (your login credentials not carried over to the booking page). You may need to log out and log back it to rectify this, but it definitely should show you logged in before you can proceed.

    What's changed? AA reward flight availability.

    I presume this is an 'in/out of Australia' thing rather than a frequent flyer thing. What do people think?

    Can I waitlist a leg of a C Advantage reward?

    I think you waitlist whatever flight you want and then (once it is confirmed) ask the phone agent to replace the one you don't want with this one. I am not sure how married segments work in this scenario though.

    Can I waitlist a leg of a C Advantage reward?

    You will need to book the available itinerary; then regardless of whether it is Saver or Advantage, you can waitlist other flights (pending you have enough points in your account). Once the waitlist comes through, you will need to call, confirm the waitlisted flight and drop the one you no...

    Perfect timing: I am checking in today for 1 night. Just registered and fingers crossed it counts 🤞

    Mixed Class Reward

    If you book the entire itinerary in one ticket, then it will be priced as a J redemption. You will be better off if you book the outbound and inbound separately: outbound will be priced as a W redemption (as @MathNerd mentioned above), and the inbound as a J redemption.

    Using my points for hotel stay

    Thanks @SYD and @JohnK, it all makes sense now.

    Using my points for hotel stay

    Hi John, you probably know exactly what you mean and are probably glossing over some important steps that my naive self cannot get my head around… you say: 1) book a room and pay $95 plus 5,000 points; 2) cancel the booking; 3) you get back $95 and 5,000 points. I do not follow how you...

    Krisflyer SQ Waitlist

    I have done exactly that just a few weeks ago. I had a MEL-xSIN-IST reward return ticket in W. I had the same trip but in J waitlisted (albeit as 2 separate one-way itineraries). One of the waitlisted itineraries (IST-xSIN-MEL one way) came through. I called and changed the ticket so now I have...
