I've been booked in Business on one of the rare 737 in the schedule between PER-ADL and it has been changed to an economy only on the route. I have too many flight change notifications in my email to find the right one, but I recall it was not extremely obvious. It might have been one of the...

The Max 125 status credits posted for me overnight with an activity date of 29 March and description "back to business"

I did 7 or 8 flights in the promo - stopped counting when I passed the maximum 6 haha I was wondering if I would get the 125 SC for 6+ flights or if a bug/mistake got some bonus for the extra flights (like extra 20SC for each flight over 6). My heart skipped a beat that I got 200 Status...

Very lucky to have booked a choice fare on August 31 that I now need to change > 14 days out so just scrapped in by one day with that booking to still have a fee free change with only fare difference. I was ecstatic when I looked up the booking date to find August 31 But this message quite...

I realized just under 2 weeks ago that these were not being random times but a weeknight around 6pm or a bit after. I would try to login my account into the redemption store if possible a bit before 6pm if I was around the computer anyway (on maybe 2 weeknights a week) and basically just...

As far as I can remember when Lite/Choice/Flex fare name/types were introduced changes for Choice fares had always been free when made More than 14 days prior to scheduled departure, just any fare difference applies. It looks like these free changes on Choice fares have been quietly ended on...

I used this back on March 30th - as soon as I saw this recent announcement I knew I had already used it. This is what the email looks like below I got the email and a simple text message at 0139 local time on the day of travel. Text message at "Virgin Australia apologies for changes to your...

Previously had one of the first flights of a sunday ADL-MEL and the 2030 departure MEL-PER. two separate bookings. Was around 12-13 hours in MEL IIRC. I can't remember the exact specifics but at ADL check in they would not/could not check my bag because it was too long in MEL between my arrival...

I called up Monday afternoon for a Tuesday morning 0600 ADL-SYD where there were still 4 unsold J seats, no reward availability and the australian Platinum team upgraded me without hesitation - there were still 3 empty J seats when we took off. In the same call agent offered to check my...
