Virgin Australia has announced a partnership with Myer, which will let the 10.9 million members of its frequent flyer program Velocity use their flight points to shop at the department store. Virgin teams up with Myer as it targets Qantas’ frequent flyers

I quite like the lack of wifi, and the ability to disconnect for 2-4 hours.

Since I travel SYD-DBO a lot I wish they'd do this route, I'm a VFF but am forced onto QF or ZL.

A left-field question. I'm making several bookings for family holidays coming up. Likely about 15 nights. We will most probably be booking 2 rooms per stay, ideally connecting (One for my wife and I, and a twin for the kids). ALl booked on my Diamond account and paid on the same invoice. For the...

This will be between xmas and new years. Lufthansa have about 6 daily flights MUC-LHR. BA has about 4 a day.

I know, I'm from there, but train Munich to London is an all-day affair while a flight is ~2 hrs.

So as a VFF Gold what are my best options for internal Europe flights? Are there any? Most likely Lufthansa, BA, etc. I can only figure out hoping for a status match program to one of their programs?

I did it on my last trip (2018) - by calling them.

I also can't find a way to change a reward booking to have my VFF number - or my wife's. Both only give us the option of entering a KF number. I might ring them and ask them to do it.

This is interesting. It looks like a good arrangement but I am very anti-Qatar due to the horrendous issues surrounding the upcoming world cup, in terms of corruption and human rights abuses, and very reluctant to support their state-owned flag carrier. I'm also concerned that there's more...

SYD. VA have confirmed that theirs remains closed. The SYD international and domestic terminals are widely spaced, with a decent bus ride between them. And with current SYD queueing dramas, unlikely.

Big woop. Flying international tomorrow with VA, need to be at airport 3 hrs early, am Gold so check-in shouldn't be as bad as for the masses, but then... no lounge to spend all that extra time in. All international Lounges remain closed. As long as the VIPs are catered for though...

:mad:

Wait what? I'm flying SYD-NAN in 2 weeks' time, no lounge access??

Same... I have a trip to Fiji booked in April and the email saying "we understand that you don't have a trip to Fiji booked" is weird.

Enhanced or not, I'd love to know when it is going to happen.

Sigh 80,000 VFF points sitting here, and ready to book a family trip to Europe for Xmas on SQ using all my points with them, if I could transfer those to Krisflyer to top up my balance there it'd be nice. I'm *just* short of enough points to fly us all over in J.

My SYD-NAN bookings in April 22 are still showing up happily on my Velocity trips page

Current sale for Syd - Ballina/Coffs has Flex for $175 each way with 25 SCs. So that's 50 SCs return, and with the current bonus SC offer, potentially 100 SCs for a $350 trip.

I've booked for April, using travel bank. Cancellation is fine till 28 Feb so if it's uncertain then, or 2-week quarantine still exists, we cancel. Easy. Accomodation is also booked and only needs to be paid 7 days out.
