    Restricted EY award seats?

    Just a thought, as the Olympics are in Paris next year could this have any affect on availability? Why would they release too much reward bookings if they can sell to passengers going to Olympics? I have been looking for flights to Europe too and haven't found any.

    UK and Europe 4 month sojourn!

    I was only looking at this exact tour last Thursday. I have added it along with a few others already mentioned for our big Europe trip in 2025. I have also looked into going to the castle featured in the movie "Where Eagles Dare" (not too far from Eagles Nest I believe). I have thoroughly...

    Yes, Fosters is a new partner. They will be supplying Fosters on board for free, as no one is going to willingly pay for it.

    Has he been drinking that much bubbles in the lounge he needs to go to AA?

    Biggest points collection

    I'd agree with that, so much more flexability.

    What's your prediction on the Australian Dollar?

    John, do they own their own home? A lot of pensioners do. Paying a mortgage or paying rent will eat up most of that $680 per week. Doesn't leave much left over for food, petrol, schooling, etc.

    UpgradeMe pricing and success

    Just came back from Perth. Upgraded from saver economy fare to business for the minimum bid of $380. Was quite surprised as business was completely full.

    POTUS AF1 flight available on Flightaware?

    Yeah I can remember hearing that both AF1 and AF2 were here. Seriously does someone really need 1000 people to pander after them? I get he's the president but honestly that is complete overkill.

    VA transfer to SQ 1.35:1 VA

    Actually I just saw the Singapore news release and they definitely say from November (as per below). Virgin releases I've seen have said in November. "The new conversion capability will be available to members of both programmes from November as well as an improved online booking capability...

    VA transfer to SQ 1.35:1 VA

    Ok they said in November. In November/by November they are both confusing. Any how as Rodney Rude would say "who gives a rat's cough?? We find out when we find out as it's all out of our control. I need a beverage or 3 after all this!!!

    VA transfer to SQ 1.35:1 VA

    Well that doesn't happen too often - me making sense that is. I might just bask in my 30 seconds of praise!!

    VA transfer to SQ 1.35:1 VA

    That was my point. "by November" is very subjective - is it by the start or by the end? Who knows (only Virgin & Singapore) so lets all settle down and have a refreshing drink!!

    VA transfer to SQ 1.35:1 VA

    Here's a thought. Instead of all the coughing and moaning, why doesn't someone contact VA and enquire what's going on. At worst they will be told we're not sure or it's still being worked on but we hope to have it ready to go by ....... Maybe even the VA Rep on here may be able to shed some...
