Thank you for the heads up about the ANZ portal - will also do ebay through there moving forward :)

I was booked on VA722 on Saturday 23rd December PER-ADL - chose that flight as it was a B738. A couple of weeks ago flight got cancelled and I'm now on the morning A320 departure instead. Did have a few options that Amex gave me (free flight), including the day before or day later or connection...

fyi: if you are in economy x at the moment QF WP will get you into the VA lounge. ADL is my most frequent port outside my home port, sorry wasn't there yesterday :) https://www.ausbt.com.au/virgin-australia-opens-lounges-to-qantas-frequent-flyers

At least the free flight is still there and not being enhanced to a travel credit.

Interesting they are now selling business on the A320. When I replied to the existing thread I recall Business not being sold on the A320 flight.

I was on VA713 ADL to PER this morning. Very light load about 50pax. Likely due to the Western Australia Day celebrations/public holiday. Great to see Economy X working well. I had a huge 16-seat shadow that stretched from 3A to 5F where a special assistance passenger was. There were...

I've had the same problem before as a WP trying to select exit row prior to YX being launched...

Ended up being the Ibis Sydney Airport with transfers provided by "Sydney Super Shuttle" VA551 the recovery option, first service Sydney to Perth, currently airborne, is looking to be a few minutes of on time at both ends. Looks like VH-XFH will be doing the 1305 trans-continental service...

They have been rebooked on VA551 Monday morning 29/5, 0715 SYD departure, 1025 PER arrival Booked into a local ibis hotel but awaiting confirmation of which one and transfer information. Each receive $50 credit at ibis for meals/incidentals. Will post when I have more info. The cancellation...

VA567, the 28/5 Sunday evening 1815 departure Sydney to Perth was delayed to 1945 and then cancelled at approximately 1930, before any boarding had commenced. I had friends that were booked on this service, I don't know the cause of the delay or cancellation yet, but am curious to see what they...

Unforutnately PER<->BNE is all 737 these days except for a single weekly flight, VA474 on Friday evenings, 2020 dep BNE, 0005 arr PER Saturday morning which is the A330. I've done PER<->BNE many times and actually prefer row 3 with an empty middle seat then a packed J cabin on the 737. EDIT...

You can ask when you check-in at Perth to check your bag all the way through for Canberra. I have done this before on two seperate bookings some time ago. Don't have recent experience since Perth went nearly 100% self service. I'd recommend printing or writing down all your flight times to...

As many of my flights are booked for me by work travel agent I manage my booking after it's received to select seats. (travel coordinator too hopeless to understand my seat preferences, admittedly I am picky depending on aircraft). Currently it's not possible to change to economy X online as a...

There are only two of about 14 VA Fokker 100s that actually have the extra leg room row 18. VH-FNT and VH-FZO. I have no idea why the seat maps are based on the minority! A few times I had travelled on the above aircraft but not realised till boarding it had the good row 18. If I have a...

How was the YX seating in the end for your flight?

called in at 0850 SYD time (0550 for me in Perth). Was on hold for 40 minutes (on my bluetooth headset so was productive doing other things in the interim). As luck would have it I sat on the throne just a few seconds before my call was answered... Julie was great, got my 1st preference...

Wit all the talk about Bali flights and VA/TT lately interesting spruiking Port Hedland to Bali Business! Also the economy PHE-DPS are pretety steep so J isn't much more. Mistake fare saying economy Perth to London for $6,745......

That's interesting business is starting to be sold on regional routes.. I fly a lot within WA on flights that have mixed aircraft types... sat in a economy ticket business seat for KTA, KGI, PHE, but there is so much variability in aircraft on these routes.... Three sectors between PER and KGI...

Interestingly the flight schedules indicated VARA doing VA714 and turning around to VA719 back to Perth but still list the equipment as 73H... I've flown on the A320 a number of times between PER and KTA, PHE, KGI and often the first few/several rows have all seats taken, including middles, and...
