A lot of the AFL packages with ticket and the breakfast, and lunch’s etc. are usually $2k-$3k a person.

Where are you travelling from and who are you supporting? Looks like a dockers shirt in your profile pic!?

Yea I am an MCC member, and know how that all works. Unfortunately I am a restricted MCC member, not full MCC member. The only difference between full membership and restricted membership is access to the GF. And the only way to go from restricted to full is time….wait and wait…and wait some...

Hi all, am a mad Sydney Swans fan, was there on Friday night at the Prelim which was great fun. Unfortunately have found out this morning that my old man and I have missed out on tickets in the Swans ballot through our memberships. So thought I would throw a hail mary out the community here if...

No issues doing it in the lounge, and they were happy to move earlier if I wanted.

Hmm, interesting…I hadn’t known that and believe have had done more than 2 hours prior before, but maybe I am wrong! 1726031706 3pm call for 5:30pm flight, booked on 8pm service.

Ok…I think there might be something happening behind the scenes on this…as have had a new one just now. Got on SkyBus in Mel just now and called the contact centre and asked for fly ahead on MEL-SYD. Booked on 8pm. Want 5:30pm. She said yep fair class (Choice) is all ok, but we can only do up...

Melbourne lounge has the area that used to be where the direct security exit was, they should convert this space in to a group space for sporting teams and the like. Similar Sydney, stick them upstairs…

Avoid Jakarta if you don’t like traffic!

That is why everyone is referencing T-80.

As a platinum I find it ok. Get free economy X which is way better than a Jetstar A320 Econ seat. Also free Wifi worked for most of my last flight. Only thing I wish Virgin had was the ability to preorder a meal so there was better options. LCC do this, so not sure why Virgin can’t make it...

Yes agreed...and I have done before on other programmes....but couldn't find any evidence of anyone doing it with Velocity, and this was my 6th HUCA to find someone who would actually do it....and price it as a through ticket.

And e-tickets have been issued, happy days! So I think the crux of it is, get them to create the manual "multi destination" booking and then send it off for manual pricing. My connection is 17h 45m.

Success! I did it! So at first she said the flight doesn't exist (with the later connecting flight that I wanted), when she was looking for DPS-SYD, only had the 2-3 early morning connections through BNE. Then I said to search segment by segment and she was like oh yes the flight exists, I...

It is by far the best benefit of being platinum. Followed by Row 3-5 seating.

Thanks for those. The Thursday weekly was pretty much like clock work. I have seen a week without it this year I don’t think as usually book my flights Thursday night for 2 weeks ahead.

So it doesn’t appear there is any Happy Hour this week? Usually Thursdays 4pm-11pm. Means cheapest Choice Fare MEL-SYD is $140. This where the demise of REX hurts consumers…as the 2 incumbents can ramp up pricing…

In this scenario I would have gone direct to gate of flight you wanted to get on and ask the agent at the desk.

I have also done it where I don’t even go to the lounge, I look at the boards once I pass security and just go straight to gate of flight that is departing soonest from MEL-SYD. As long as it is 30min before scheduled departure (I have been unsuccessful when say 20 mins from departure as they...

Literally did it successfully in the MEL lounge 40 mins ago. Plat booked on MEL-SYD 7:30pm service, asked if any seats available earlier when I arrived at lounge at 6:10pm. Got put on the delayed 6:30pm service no issues at all. Taxiing now. Row 5 with vacant middle seat. I successfully do it...
