I've had two in 18 years - on both occassions I was Gold and well short of achieving the retain level On the first occassion I didn't utilise it but... On the second I totally used it and went from 0 SC's to over 1400 so I achieved Platinum - Mission Accomplished! (some work funded and a couple...

The dog is trained to lay quietly at the owners feet - try doing that with a 30kg labrador in row 4!- Row 3 at least provides some degree of room to allow that to happen (although not sure how they get on when they ask people to make sure bags and loose objects are in the overhead lockers :p)...

I have 600,000+ Velocity points - I'd use them for JASA type flights - like I said its a lost opportunity to for Virgin to reduce their liability against outstanding points.

Virgin FAIL then Wonder if they'll introduce it to help burn up some of the points liability sitting in Velocity Rewards?

Link please (or it didn't happen)

Qantas Press Release issued today: QANTAS CORRECTS AAP MISREPORTING ON PASSENGER NUMBERS SYDNEY, 5 July 2012: Australian Associated Press (AAP) incorrectly reported yesterday that Virgin Australia carried more Australian domestic passengers in the year to May 2012 than Qantas. The AAP story...

9 Aug 16.10 QF1 Syd-Sin J class - I can get in the Business lounge but looking for a kind soul to guest me into the F Lounge at Sydney - anyone travelling with access to First lounge on the 9th ex Sydney? 12 Aug 20.00 QF6 Sin-Syd J class - the temp F lounge should be available as a J passenger I...

ASA = Any Seat Award Frequent Flyer - Using Points - Qantas & Jetstar Any Seat Awards as opposed to Classic Awards - http://www.qantas.com.au/fflyer/dyn/program/usingPoints/flights - which don't accrue points or SC's

They are wrong - JASA's definitely qualify for double SC's - I've had a number of the bonus SC's appear on my statement - takes 2 or 3 days typically after the initial flight SC's are posted for them to show up and on another note I guess we should all raise our glasses on the stroke of...

Similar experience on QF48 yesterday from WLG - I'm in 4A but didn't feel the love but the guy in 4C must have been WP as he got the Fin Review offered and the wine (albeit Y class level) kept coming for him (have to say I don't believe he asked for the special attention)- when I requested a...

Loving the responses - and experiences Given me some great ideas for the next time it happens I don't mind people talking on their phones quietly (when not in a phone free area) but it was when she was too lazy to stick it to her ear and put it on speaker that got up my nose!

I did search to see if there was an existing thread and I looked at that one but decided that as this was someone speaking into their phone using the speaker function that it justified its own thread on people talking too loudly into phones

If the offer is there we would be crazy not to take advantage of it. 1400 SC's does require quite a bit of travel still so it's not like they're giving Platinum away. I've found getting good seat allocation as a Gold to not be too difficult actually - T-80 is a great thing

Platinum is the new Gold Basically there seems to be an increase in Platinums (me included soon) - thanks double status credits

Sitting in the Qantas Business lounge in Sydney at the moment and unimpressed with a women who is speaking into her phone using the speaker so we all have to listen to her conversation - and she has a piercing voice as well What's the protocol for calling her on it (and before someone suggests...

Welcome on board - feel free to ask any questions and have a look through previous threads. There's a vast amount of information on here

No - just April-June (Intl and Domestic) and August (for Intl only)

Re: Up to 30000 bonus points with JQ Mastercard - Fraud warnings [/LIST] I wish it were true :( - I'm still trying to get them to credit the first years fee of $149 that they charged me - many phone calls and messages later and I'm still waiting for it to be fixed Once I have my points I...

Yes - you are correct - I edited it to fix it to August at the same time you were posting
