Just note that turning on auto-redeem will transfer all your current and future FB points to Velocity. No good if you have a high FB points balance that you want to use as Coles Dollars not VFF points, for example.

For the month of September you can get up to 4 Status credits per $100 spent at Coles (plus Liquorland and First Choice) up to a maximum of 40 status credits. You get 2 status credits per $100 spent if you are a manual transfer to Velocity member You get 4 status credits per $100 spent if you...

Could explain why I just got notified of my September SYD-CNS flights shifting in time by 30 mins.

Asked a person, who was standing there in front of the counters waiting, people could walk up, ask for something from behind a rope, and she would turn around to the counter and pick up the item and pass it to them.

SYD lounge yesterday 11am - toasted ham & cheese sandwiches under the warmer, nice looking salad bowls, and good fresh chicken sandwiches individually wrapped. Attendant handed them out on request. OOL lounge this morning 8am, bowls of cereal, muffins, banana bread, fruit. I was quite happy...

Yes, I had already had status extended with an expiry date of late 2022... then I received this email with "special privilege" of having my expiry date moved forward to March 2022. My Velocity app shows the new earlier expiry of Mar 2022. Luckily my Apple Wallet velocity card still shows the...

I'm interested - travelling with a colleague on 17 March from SYD....

Syd T2 - I haven't been there for 4 weeks, but at the time it was limited to 1 or 2 of the cafes and Pie Face. Majority of outlets were closed. Hopefully they are reopening and people are getting back to work. In T3 (QF) there was 1 cafe and Mad Mex and that's it... but to be fair with 12...

My SG review date is next week (X Dec 2020). I re-qualified back in March 2020 and haven't been able to fly since then. My wife is also SG (review date was X Sept 2020), and she was automatically sent a new SG card expiring X Sept 2021). So I believe my SG will be automatically extended to X...

Flying QF from Syd at 0830 next Wed, a regional flight. Is the Syd lounge open? Website says "from Sept" but also "closed." I'm not a QFF (I'm a Velocity plat) but was considering buying a pass online to try it out.

Refund of taxes now received on credit card.

Requested cancellation Tues. Email received Wed confirming refund of taxes paid in cash, due in 4-6 weeks (like everyone else). KF miles used to buy tickets, credited back into account today.

Now that SQ has extended the refund policy to flights up to Nov 30 (booked before Mar) I submitted my cancellation requests today, for flights I had booked for the end of Sept. I immediately received a "Refund request acknowledgement" email, but we'll see how long it takes for points to appear...

...assuming that VFF even exists in the new airline.

Losing J wouldn't bother me, an extra 4 rows of Economy X would still allow the option for something a bit nicer. As people have said, with most flights being under 2.5 hrs its not that big a deal. I hope VFF remains with Lounges, luggage perks, and priority check in stays though, those 3 things...

I had a flight booking Syd - Hobart for the first week of July. Last night I opened the Velocity app to find it has vanished from my "Upcoming trips" tab. I tried to re-add it with my reference number and got the message "You cannot add a cancelled flight." I haven't received any contact from...

Steamrail is Liquorland's home brand. Its horse piss dressed up with "craft style" labelling.

We have a dream trip to Iceland flying SQ at the end of Sept... we cashed in all our VFF points last Oct. We are holding out hope that flying will be possible, as it's over 5 months away, otherwise hopefully we can change the date to a year later... as for our weekend in Hobart in Jul, remains...
