    Stepping up to the podium for my next newbie question, is it possible to transfer lounge vouchers? Now that I am (discover) gold I have no need and would like to transfer to others

    One point rewards promo??

    Well done to everyone who got something, I might have to give up on this promotion as it seems the chance of being in the right place at the right time is almost impossible

    Virgin Australia Business Class - Meals, Menus & Service

    Ordered Thai Green Curry for the flight back, the main was pretty tasty and simple. Overall found the service a bit sterile, and preferred the friendliness of the previous flight

    I think they started in row 2, I wasn't paying much attention

    Virgin Australia Business Class - Meals, Menus & Service

    First post to this thread! Flew PER - MEL and by the time I was served there was only vego options left. Took the potato stack which was pretty tasty. One of the first times I haven't been able to finish an airplane meal

    Virgin Australia UpgradeMe pricing and success

    Successful upgrade for MEL - PER while bidding the minimum ($245). Now a VA gold so lounge access isn't needed but should be a nice improvement over Y

    Finally got processed less than 24 hours before a flight, hope that counts towards the eligible sector and SC requirements

    My status credits have hit, means I will re qualify for gold without a single QF revenue flight

    Velocity Gold status match (apply by 15/9/23)

    Two days is very promising, it means I won't have to use a lounge voucher on an upcoming economy flight

    Velocity Gold status match (apply by 15/9/23)

    My QF Gold was going to lapse, then the recent 'gift' came into affect that will result in me requalifiying. I applied yesterday, I'll be interested to see how long it takes since I would probably earn gold organically otherwise.

    QFF Bonus Status Credits/Points gift on back of Aug 2023 profit

    I was going to lapse from Gold to Silver, but Qantas seem determined to keep me on board. I should requal for Gold with the SCs from Points Club for my upcoming reward flights

    Are Jetstar really that bad??

    Maybe I'm very lucky but I've been quite happy with Jetstar when I fly with them. I usually fly with a max bundle for SCs but enjoy the extra legroom seats and food included

    Virgin Australia UpgradeMe pricing and success

    I've got a bit of an edge case, but I'm sure someone has dealt with it before. I used an Economy X voucher to upgrade a flight to Economy X. I've now placed an 'UpgradeMe' bid but wanted to make sure that the Economy X voucher would be refunded in the event of my bid being successful? The email...

    The Qantas Newbie Questions Thread

    Another basic question, but I've had a quick look online. What would the cancellation fee be for a reward flight - more specifically a JQ flight? Thanks

    Seating Availability/Allocation/Configuration Help Desk

    Since it has been 4 years since flying VA, what do people think is the best J seat? Not that you have many options

    Seats.aero - a useful tool for finding Qantas & Velocity reward availability

    I've enjoyed using this so far, at least once I tried creating an alert for the app to tell me there is already award space which I then booked. One alert fired at 3 AM, which meant at 6 AM when I searched for the award it was unavailable.

    Flighty app

    I've found Flighty pretty good, and use it in conjunction with Tripit Pro. I used to only have a monthly subscription on the months I travelled, but recently changed to an annual subscription. I like the constant stream of notifications about when the inbound aircraft arrives, and when the gate...
