    Etihad cabin baggage in Y

    I can't share a direct experience from exactly your case, however, yes, the Etihad rules would apply. BUT have you seen what people are getting away with in cabin baggage these days? I'm sure if you try and streamline your tech bags you'll be fine.

    Article: Complete Guide to Velocity Status Benefits on Partner Airlines

    No, the pitch/width is staying the same. The seat back is more slimline - allows an extra row I believe.

    The Virgin Australia Newbie Questions Thread

    Etihad is good on the ground with VA benefits in my experience. Guest limits for lounges are adhered to, but ask nicely and you never know your luck. Enjoy your trip - you'll be going through the new Terminal A.

    What is up with Etihad's Australian operations?

    @Thibault with the scoop. Etihad social media (Instagram) have just announced the A380 will be on JFK from 22/04/24.

    What is up with Etihad's Australian operations?

    I will do - let's hope the rotation back to the A351 sticks for my flight soon after that date 😉

    What is up with Etihad's Australian operations?

    The 380s are exclusive to and from LHR at the moment. I doubt it either. I'm looking forward to trying the A351 product out of CDG in January.

    What is up with Etihad's Australian operations?

    @Thibault Do you recall what was behind row 14 separating the cabin from economy? I've just booked row 14 (the last window seat) on the 777.

    Velocity reinstates Singapore Airlines redemptions

    Someone will correct me I'm sure, but it could be to do with the IATA schedules not being loaded for the Winter/Summer.

    Velocity reinstates Singapore Airlines redemptions

    Sorry to hear this for you, but unfortunately not. J rewards are like hen's teeth at the moment. Rare. Being snapped up as quick as they go up due to people's large points balances, pent up demand, and subscription sites like seats.aero that notify people when seats become available. Hopefully...

    SQ Redemption Flight Change - No ticket number?

    Update: the Singapore agent on the live chat insists that there is nothing wrong on their end and that it is confirmed and ticketed and ok to fly. Hmm...

    SQ Redemption Flight Change - No ticket number?

    I've just had a similar issue occur. Reward seats booked back from UK to Australia on two separate bookings. PNR had to be split for both flights as my partner's travel plans had to change. One of the flights all seems ok, but for the second flight I have the same banner saying I’m not...

    Velocity review date mechanism

    It depends on what your card (digital) says in the app. Usually access is to the end of the following month.

    Qantas Business Class meals & menus

    This plating, and even the ingredients (haphazard, after-thought garnish), is absolutely abysmal.

    My Velocity points balance has fallen to zero... and I couldn't be happier

    Couldn't agree more with this thread. I'm down to 838 points (been pooling to my partner in the last 6 months). Together as a result of credit card acquisition and earn rates, we've managed to book (and partially travel) the following for the last month and coming 6 months: - 2Y ADL-MEL on VA...
