    I am WP with VFF and after receiving a call from Emirates Sydney to ask me some questions I was told that I would be matched to Skywards gold. I received my pack late last week and it was silver - not really what I was hoping for

    Thanks for your thoughts so far. This is the only weekend of a year that we have away from our two young kids so we are keen to have a couple of nice, peaceful and uninterrupted dinners whilst staying somewhere we can be a bit pampered.
