Thanks for posting this, have verified this is still apparently correct via NAB app chat. If anyone is aware based on experience, when does the annual fee post? Statements for me come through on the 2nd of each month, card was approved around 20 Jan. Would I expect to see it in the Jan 2 or Feb...

Paying on Melbourne buses seems to be an optional choice for most passengers.

Sorry, I forgot to ask. Hopefully it's worthwhile, all jokes aside I was in disbelief at the state of the toilets in the QP as well. I honestly don't think they've seen a deep clean since my first visit, circa 2003. Also had the classic experience of being told off by staff because of the mess...

I'd like to see his face when he walks in to the bathrooms.

SYD T3 J lounge closed today. All directed to QF club. Bit of a zoo. Classic customer experience...the race to the bottom is on...

Wow that's a real smack. It's not exactly easy to book the VA marketed option either in many cases!

Travelling at the moment so it's a bit hard to take all of these changes in as there is just so many. But that said, at first glance, I think this is a goodbye to VA status for me. It's been a fun 7 or so years as a Platinum! I will requal plat this year (review mid March) then soft land to gold...

It works, tried it last September and again Monday last week. No issue, it just checks your KF number is valid and issues you a voucher.

The problem is that there is not a small group of people travelling the world having a grand old time on defrauded Velocity account points. What there almost certainly is, is a group of people acting as agents in countries with lax regulation. Possibly offering these seats at retail as a cut...

I suspect they're not the true culprit and there is quite the operation going on, and possibly some laundry being done...

Do you use a password manager/unique password for VFF?

I've been pondering the Avios question for most of the day. I don't think it's going to happen. It's a world away from the rest of the Avios infrastructure, and VFF and Velocity points as a whole are a very well known local product. There is significant value in these staying in the market as...

There are several options, however no multi-stop ones and all are generally more expensive than flying to the east coast.

Not the easiest from Perth. Do you have day(s) free? The easiest would likely be PER-ADL-MEL return. I would try and tie it in to a weekend away or something.

By comparison, Virgin do specifically allow for a refund of Economy X fees if you apply for and receive an upgrade to Business.

Take one, move it on if you come across two. Insurance is never a bad thing.

It's a tricky one. I would personally consider just an email to Velocity asking why your itinerary was priced at 159,000 despite having no break in journey, and seeing what they say. Ultimately pricing each sector individually is probably what should occur as it was a married segment...but...

Let's be honest, it's for revenue but it's also not hidden and it's very transparent. Happy for transparent rules to be appropriately enforced, personally.

Thanks for the reply. Will consider options, but the lack of a shower prior to flying back to AU might tip me over to ponying up for a hotel at the airport. Shame as I've always wanted to spend all night wandering Tokyo!

Just picked up a relatively last minute J award on QF26 on a Friday with the early departure. Probably due to someone changing to fly the night before, but I'll take it. Looking in to the logistics of hotels and getting to HND...somewhat tempted to just go without and spend the night roaming the...
