    78min connection at JFK, same airline, same terminal. Am I good ?

    16 year old platinum travelling solo access to VA and partner lounges.

    Downgraded from Business Class.

    Personally I think it's great that Qantas now value an upgrade from economy to business on this flight at $1250. Where do I pay?

    How to book for a baby (not yet born)?

    We did this earlier this year. Ring the VA call centre and they will add "Baby SURNAME" to the booking. Call back when you have a baby and a name and they will change it.
