    Loss of Platinum while requalifying on J international trip.

    Agree, but way crowded at the time of night transit is from MEL-SIN. Actually preferred the Priority pass options I had last time I flew economy, but maybe that was because I was absolutely stuffed from the J flight I just got off. ;).

    Loss of Platinum while requalifying on J international trip.

    Further statement of futility, I got an email today from iShop Changi saying I have won a 50 dollar voucher to use in the airport/online shop. But have to be in Changi to redeem. So it arrived 5 days after we transited through Changi. Was not planning another trip before February ( Expiry date)...

    Loss of Platinum while requalifying on J international trip.

    Just musing thoughts, not a question or a real rant. No I was short SC prior to review, but over 16 sectors. My phone call to Virgin informed me that there was 30 days grace over the review date, which meant I would requalfy with flights the day after anniversary. But did not happen, rather a...

    Loss of Platinum while requalifying on J international trip.

    So my review date was the day we left on our European J trip with SQ. They kept me at Plat for the outbound 3 flights earning 300SC, and also seemed to kept me at Plat for the return flights at check in in CDG and again in MEL for the last leg. also earning 300SC, i only needed 350SC to qualify...

    Virgin Australia Business Class - Meals, Menus & Service

    I booked MEL- SIN - CDG with a combination of points and dollars for myself and Mrs Tassieoptom. Neglected to book domestic legs before and after at the time, nearly forgot entirely, but booked VA HBA-MEL ret about 4-6 weeks prior. Sorry for confusion.

    Virgin Australia Business Class - Meals, Menus & Service

    I had a month to use 4 upgrade to business vouchers so used them for a set of flights I would never pay for business. I.e. HBA-MEL return. This was the domestic legs of a J trip with SQ. Meals were breakfast and brunch respectively, and I was quite impressed.

    Paris Silmo fair trip in J on SQ, with extended travel after.

    Got back to airport just before 9.00am, went to the office we were told to. No bags. They had been sent on ‘Rush’ to Hobart on a virgin flight :(. Not what they told us would occur the night before. They said just collect from baggage carousel in Hobart, which seemed odd as they had no way of...

    Paris Silmo fair trip in J on SQ, with extended travel after.

    Next drama was after landing we were paged. We were told 2 of our bags had not made it onto our second flight. But we had 3 bags, they could not tell us which bags were missing. So my wife went to baggage carousel to await lone bag, and I went to baggage services, they informed me that all three...

    On a side note, they did not load the BTC meals for my wife. So a bit annoyed.

    Paris Silmo fair trip in J on SQ, with extended travel after.

    The next leg was SIN-MEL SQ J in an A350 row 18, IMHO the worst J seats. Toilets overlapped so little privacy, and smell issues. Lucky it was not a night flight. We had no other choice if we were to sit together, and we chose seats a fair way in advance. I finished watching the whole first...

    Paris Silmo fair trip in J on SQ, with extended travel after.

    Then the CDG-SIN flight SQ J A380 seats 96 row in the centre. ( best seats in the plane I feel, more private than a traditional bulkhead)

    Paris Silmo fair trip in J on SQ, with extended travel after.

    So we went back at 10.30am, there were a lot of buses and a lot of people. And the word was 11.00 to open, so we went to get crepes. Overheard at crepe bistro, was it was to be 12pm, so we made a decision to have a longer lunch, have more courses etc. eventually we wandered back towards the...
