I recall after the signed the interline with Delta they were even making cabin announcements welcoming delta connecting passengers onboard.

VA is really trying to pump up those forward bookings. Not really a surprise but just shows that demand across the board is continuing to be soft.

I think we should all raise feedbacks with VA/Velocity such that they step up the account protection game. When the tech world is already moving from MFA to Passkey, VA without even basic text based MFA is stuck in the early 2000s.

They should be able to. However Multi City with a stop-over greater than 24 hrs will be priced the same way as 2 separate tickets. If both flights are on the same day then they are not technically multi-city. It's just a normal connecting itinerary and you happen to prefer/book this particular...

Even during the winter peak? Thinking of just gambling without a backup Y ticket for my trip in mid Jan 25. Dates will be slightly flexible except I’ll need 2x J and it won’t bankrupt me to book Y last minute if the plan fall through 😬

Surely even a sheer curtain like the US carriers have would do just fine. Also they also uses a sky divider from the looks of it.

if someone could be a historian for just a sec, when and why did VA got rid of its ERJs? I think I read somewhere that they brought in Fokker for Skywest to replace the ERJ they sold so it definitely looks like a deja vu moment 😂

Use a password manager and randomly generated password - never reuse passwords between websites and never share your master password. It should already be built in to any relatively modern device/browser. For most people that will stop 90% of attacks on your account that relies on password...

Certainly not. You are an unsecured creditor and last on the list to get anything if Rex is liquidated. If VA is interested in anything in Rex it would just submit a proposal and negotiate asset purchase with the administrator. It doesn’t need to crowd source via Rex ticket holder.

Not exactly a fair way to do the math? If they want the keep the 737 going for another decade the cabin refresh will be needed regardless of whether they want to install the extra row or not. At most you can count the cost to purchase the 6 extra economy row plus additional labour to install.

Really? I thought you need liferafts to fly over the great Australian bight which is typical for PER flights?

I love the days when VA would price captial cities $5 below Rex pretty consistently. VA flyers are sure to see fare edge closer to QF levels now. A sad day for everyone indeed.

The way the Rex statement was worded definitely sounded like it’s a deal between Rex and VA. The press release said “an agreement has been reached with Virgin Australia” If you booked through a travel agent and didn’t use a credit card you wouldn’t have this option. Though anyway it seems like...

Would much more expensive would it be for VA to get some crews seconded to VAi from say QR for the arrangement to be dry-lease?

I 100% agree. I was expecting to have to call in Monday and push for the points to be posted back. Plus after reading the terms and condition it appeared correct that I would not have entitled to a refund of the 15k due to the change in route leading to a shorter flight which would be a...

Nope it doesn’t allow changing destinations. Anyway I had a good look at the availability and there’s plenty that can get me to HKG/PVG on CX/MU/QF on those dates so I bit the bullet and just cancelled online. The points ended up back into my account in just about 20 minutes, I was pleasantly...

Hey, I currently have a classic rewards for MEL-PVG at 90k points for later this month on MU and I’ve just found space open up on a CX MEL-HKG for 75k points on the same date that will work out much better for me so I’m looking to change to that either via a cancel/rebook or calling in to...

I’m plat and have a fairly substantial points balance so I wasn’t expecting anything but I just got the email a few moments ago despite the link showing I was not eligible for the offer earlier today. I’m starting to think it’s not targeted but it’s just the potato server chugging through the...

To be even more pedantic, even when two airlines have an “interline agreement” and you have both segments issued in one ticket and PNR there’s no guarantee that you baggage will be checked through at a particular connection airport, regardless of whether the check-in agent was willing to...

You are too early. Looks like VA hasn’t (formally) loaded the inventories on SQ codeshares beyond IATA northern summer 2024. Flights are readily available via VA until Oct 29 which is the end of IATA northern summer season.
