    Reducing the E190 fleet...

    They are used for 28 flights a week between Perth and Adelaide (twice daily each direction) which is nearly all flights on that route. Checking timetables for October looks like no reduction of E190 on this route, but it might be they just haven't gotten to that yet...

    New Virgin Check-in Perth

    What's your thoughts on the number plate scanning and this approach? I'm incredibly unlucky... I can imagine years later a glitch in the system where I can't leave without paying for years worth of parking from the first time I went in and didn't pay leaving...

    Another bag weight fail

    I should have captioned that pic to state that my backpack was only ~6kg. The scales were broken. However I stopped reporting issues to airline staff as nothing ever seemed to be done about them.

    New Virgin Check-in Perth

    When I had a uber drop me off at T1 domestic last week he dropped me off just past the T1 international entrance as it was crazy and not possible to stop anywhere sooner. I decided from this point forward I will always use the T2 pickup/drop off. Just yesterday landed back into T1 domestic and...

    New Virgin Check-in Perth

    Has anyone tried the new air-conditioned airside walkway between T2 and T1 yet? This is the doors at the T2 end. I keep forgetting to try and figure out where the T1 end of it is. I suspect it is near the lounge.

    New Virgin Check-in Perth

    This is a photo of the new kiosk I referred to a few weeks ago. Have a nice big screen and put a tiny box in the middle of it. Again I went to the next screen mistakenly whilst I still had zero bags. Managed to select 1 bag the second time around. Also I could not figure out how to review my...

    New Virgin Check-in Perth

    Just a quick update on the boarding process from Monday morning. They announced for special assistance guests to board, then for gold/platinum, however they didn't say which lane gold/platinum should use. As status pax started heading down the priority boarding lane staff directed them to walk...

    New Virgin Check-in Perth

    Chatting to my colleague who used the red kiosk he completely missed the "add" bags tiny button and checked in without getting his bag tags and needed staff intervention also. I think they also completely missed the plot for accessibility standards. I'm guessing they are going to quickly learn...
