    Singapore Redemption Flight - Lounge Access?

    Yes they do...Star Alliance rules. If you wish you could go to the Air NZ lounge at SYD. There are no other Star Alliance lounges at SIN though.

    Singapore Redemption Flight - Lounge Access?

    You're searching for something you won't find. All business class passengers will get entry to the Silverkris lounge...regardless of how they booked / FF status.

    Virgin Australia and Air NZ to Form New Partnership

    You are proposing to have 1 VA ticket and 1 NZ ticket...so that will never happen. Neither ticketing carrier will touch the other's ticket...assuming that they even have access to be able to manage it.

    Virgin Australia and Air NZ to Form New Partnership

    They're not going to protect you from delays and misconnects on separate tickets. The best you can hope for is bags being checked through, which as mentioned is also doubtful.

    Another new low for QF. Charging WP for a standard Y seat

    I'm confused...EF is showing a 787 seatmap and the app version is a 737...no?

    Avianca LifeMiles – Bookings and Discussion

    No. If the itinerary involves the US. Your citizenship / residency status isn't relevant.

    Avianca LifeMiles – Bookings and Discussion

    There MAY (unlikely if your itinerary doesn't touch The Americas) be free cancellation within 24 hours...but that is likely to be your only 'less expense' option...with all the inherent risks.

    Once you hit 1300/800 status credits in renewal you can gift gold to someone else. Once you hit 1800/800 status credits in renewal you can gift platinum to someone else.

    United Airlines new Virgin Australia/Velocity Partner

    The bolding refers to the part underneath. This is US DoT regulation...free cancellation must be allowed within 24 hours of booking. For all other bookings not touching the US the standard cancellation fee will apply.

    Virgin Australia applied for ADL/OOL-PER-DPS. Failed due International Terminal Requirement

    Everyone knows that except the person updating the lounge access info on the Velocity website. Actually...it looks like they've updated it! And they nearly managed to do it correctly!

    Avianca LifeMiles – Bookings and Discussion

    They both use Amadeus I think so the booking reference should be the same .

    Virgin Australia applied for ADL/OOL-PER-DPS. Failed due International Terminal Requirement

    ...and...apparently Velocity Gold and Plat only get lounge access at Singapore...not other SQ operated lounges (not true...but that's what they've written).

    Virgin Australia applied for ADL/OOL-PER-DPS. Failed due International Terminal Requirement

    Possibly the same work experience kid they just used to update the page on Singapore Airlines lounge access and completely butchered it.

    Triple status credits on Virgin Australia

    That was not listed anywhere in the terms and conditions and I'd be very surprised if it were the case.

    Which velocity card to get

    I would also look out for the Amex Velocity Plat...preferably with about 100k sign up points. Not only would that offset the annual fee but the card also includes an annual complimentary return domestic flight. It's a pity that Coles Mastercard is about to start charging international...

    It is just between SIN and Australia though...I can see normal availability on e.g. SIN-LHR.

    Yup. Given this includes economy as well I'm sure its a temporary glitch.
