Bummer - still 10,000 points are not to be sneezed at. Thanks all for your wisdom.

Thanks everyone for your advice - spent a bit of time yesterday and and I have just ticked over the five leaves 😁. Now I need to decide whether to go the points or the status credits And I have a shiny green APP icon too.

Apologies if this has been answered before but the offer: "Boost your Status Credits As a member of Points Club, when you book your next seat using Qantas Points you will earn Status Credits on Qantas marketed Classic Flight Rewards" I have a couple of Emirates reward flights booked next year...

And low and behold - the $1450 arrived in my bank account with the 21 days as promised. I had also cancelled another leg of our holiday because I didn't want to face any more similar dramas. After I received this refund, I rang Virgin and asked that they reimburse the 9,000 points they had...

I was a bit slow 🤪 here - finally realised that Finnair was talking their winter schedule, and there had been no change to next May (my flight dates). Meantime I managed to get Emirates flights that work better, plus I used my Velocity points a month or so back to book a return on Singapore...

I have just cancelled my OWA - the major flights may go back into availability: (JL774) MEL -> NRT -> HEL (AY74) departing on May 14th 2023 and (QR240) IST -> DOH -> ADL (QR914) departing 14th June 2023 QR240 hopefully may help someone

Not quite sure what is happening with my booking - MEL->NRT->HEL in May 2023. Our AY074 flight from Narita is still showing as booked in Qantas and Finnair - but Finnair is not showing the flight otherwise. I don't know how long it is going to take to plow through all the displaced...

Maybe try a different browser. I couldn't login on Chrome - but Safari works fine (but slowly).

The Travel bank doesn't expire until next year, but this is the only flight that I can see at this stage that I will be able use it for - and I've recently used most of my points so would like to save points if at all possible

A couple of questions about upgrades I have a travel bank with enough $ to book and economy flight either Choice or Flex - so, if there is a J award I could definitely purchase it? I presume it would make more sense to pay the flex fare and get the cheaper upgrade as the balance of the...

Sounds good in theory - but I had no beef with Qantas here.

Of me or Virgin? ☺️ It was a very hopeful request to Virgin, so quite a whoopee moment when the email arrived! The flights were July 5th - which was the really really bad day for cancelled flights. And the replacement Qantas flights were very very expensive. Worthy of a nice "thank you"

Dear Virgin, After causing me great distress cancelling our flight from HBA - OOL and putting it back two days, you have redeemed yourself! 🥰 At the time of cancellation you refunded the Velocity points plus $ of the cancelled flight. Today, you said you would also refund (within 21 business...

Yes - friends last night said their direct QF HBA-ADL flights have been cancelled & changed. Nice to be forewarned, thank you.

Thanks for that RooFlyer. My OWA final legs are IST-DOH-ADL (overnight) then ADL-HBA. The thought of needing to chase the Qatar flights if it needs re-ticketing is a bit scary. Hopefully if Qantas cancels it after we actually leave Australia a month earlier, they will just sort it somehow...

This concerns me greatly - my final leg of an OWA is ADL - HBA and I would hate to have to go through the drama of actually changing the ticket. Looking in June 2023 there appear to be both PER & ADL direct flights to HBA. Is there a particular time period that these direct flights have...

I cancelled a BNE-TSV flight early June. Originally booked & paid $ for economy then upgraded to business with another 19,000 points x 2. The reason for cancellation was a flight change which would not have allowed us to catch the ferry to magnetic Is on the same day - so basically QF caused...

Top 5% on my three family members cards - so maybe that is about 1% overall :D. I just did a count back and it is 203,000 since January 2020 and 250,000 since 31st July 2019 (is that when it started - or just as far as the Velocity site shows?) anyway - very happy Jan.

Thanks antycbr & MrH - that explains it then - and relieves any remaining vague worries. I previously used TripIt, then went to CMT which sounded THE one - so I'll add TripCase to the list. However - they all compete with my feeble comprehension and reservation/computer literacy 🤪 Still...

It's OK - i have basically sorted it. 😊 There was a second PNR buried within the booking - once I used that rather than the Virgin PNR on the Singapore website everything clicked into place and I now have our seats selected. Still havent worked out how to add the booking to Check My Trip but...
