I suspect they chose row 16 as Rows 3-13 are reserved for Plat/Gold/Silver seat selection initially, row 14-15 exit rows so row 16 is the next available.

From pre-covid experience at PER T1 arriving early morning the regular(red) bag drops would all say "check in opens at XX:XXam" and not accept baggage if there really early - I had not observed the regular kiosk operation. However the priority (purple) kiosk allowed check in and there was...

Good news for VH-TCP

I was on the website yesterday afternoon checking reward availability for imminent domestic travel and wide availability. Didn't book anything. Possibly going to travel interstate to help provide care for nephews/niece.

yep this is what I had done when I did PER-AUH-SFO and JFK-AUH-PER a few years back. They had a sale for business about $4,200 which only worked when I did a return on the website, not multi sector. Call centre were amazing and got me the exact flights I wanted. I also chose a 12 hour...

I wouldn't be surprised if we see the A332 pop up again on a few sectors between Perth and Brisbane. Always been close to full loads when I travelled that city pair. Also flown between PER and BNE via SYD a few times as one-way economy pushing $1,000 on a direct PER BNE on late lead bookings.

Business is 2x2 by Virgin Booking system Looking in Expertflyer no reward seats for economy or business.

I thought that the selling business was a booking system mistake but alas Alliance do mention a business class in the F70 brochure. http://www.allianceairlines.com.au/docs/default-source/Fleet/fokker-70_c.pdf

I first noticed this two weeks ago, called up and fixed in the call and partner (Family pooling) got the correct amount within a few minutes. subsequent flights that were in error have had corrections applied without me needing to call.

When I was abandoning a cheap getaway fare I was tossing up between selecting seat 3B or 3E to help keep a shadow for those in row 3 or to call up and forfeit. I decided to call up to let VA know I was forfeiting my getaway fare as a Platinum so they could sell another seat on the plane. Must...

I work for a large company, I've never needed the Pilot Gold as I have been gold/plat since 2011 however various employees at different times have been given the pilot gold. Not sure if it was part of limited time offers or an off the shelf available at different times as that's outside my job...

I wait listed recently for the A332 sunday night service Brisbane to Perth. Booked a flexi economy (CNS-BNE-PER) about 9 days out and at the time there was 8 revenue J seats still for sale BNE to PER. Had an alert for reward availability in Expert flyer for which there were no seats...

Never got an email for this - partner got an email with double points. As platinum I just logged into the velocity website and found a 50% bonus offer there which I have activated. Need to book a few flights tomorrow so happy to get the 50% bonus (so will work out 12.5 points per airfare...

I do PER-ADL a fair bit and try to avoid the F100s. (Row 3 B737 way nicer the the F100.). Initially the F100 had no Wireless entertainment but many of the F100 now do - just from experience when I get stuck on them don't have any hard stat to quote. In early days of 737 operations moving to...

I noticed this last week too previously had signed on to the wifi with multiple devices each with a unique email address. Last week discovered if I logged in with my laptop after previously logging in with my phone, the phone wifi stopped working. Could log in again on my phone with name and...

interestingly nearly exactly the same issue, but in reverse, when searching Perth to Beijing out of Perth. Only gives me SQ options PER-SIN-PEK and doesn't offer me options via SYD/MEL and HKG.

^^ both these two are en-suites with toilet included in your private bathroom. There is an additional shower room with sink and mirror, but no toilet, inside the male toilets just to the right of these two ensuites. I assumed something like this in ladies as well. Pretty much every time I...

It's about the same price for access to the swimming pool, which has showers. Despite having access to the SilverKris lounge last time I was there I paid to use the pool - and had my shower there. Considering how many people transit changi I was amazed how quiet the pool was. Swimming Pool with...

I only discovered late last year about Points MAX. My bookings I've found I can generally get a small number of points without the booking price going up. The points do go up a lot more if you choose a more expensive option from the same hotel. This last one was for a ~$500 booking.

Sunday evening 20th January. I was on VA697, VH-XFH the 2030 scheduled departure MEL-PER I received txt and email notifications at ~1640 saying that flight would be delayed till 2120. Upon arrival to VA lounge ~1915 screens said 2130. At ~2125 VA melbourne lounge announced our flight was...
