No, you're right, prices have risen, much due to post covid demand. Regarding the promo, I suspect it's more due to some QLD government tourism promotion than a change of mood from the airline. As you say, it's not all destinations - Brisbane doesn't seem to get any discounts - and seems to be...

Just because a majority of Americans use a certain program convention doesn't make it the most sensible, best or anything else to recommend. Until recently, Americans widely used cheques ("for many decades"), moreso than electronic payments. Doesn't make it better... and they've finally seen...

But pax were already incentived to buy the choice+ fares previously within their customer base before, due to both the package of benefits e.g luggage and that you needed that to earn sectors for the FF program. Arguably it was a bigger incentive in the previous incarnation. But they I read it...

What's the initiative to "increase share of high value customers?" The other two are readily apparent, but don't see anything to support the first one.

He said the earn rate is the same. Sure it's $. And some $ (choice) are worth more than others (Lite). Yet business is not similarly encouraged.

It's not free. It's part of what you're paying for. I can't imagine there are even any business class flights in the world (unless the sector is too short) which don't include food as part of the fare paid.

How is it easier when every flight is most likely going to have a different amount of credits - even if you fly on the same route in the same grade? Regular fliers - and they're the ones who are worried about status - get to know the standard earn for flights as they take and see it all the...

OTOH, sometimes all the facts will never come out e.g. China not releasing outcome of China Eastern 5735 - and at least they admit that, whereas others cover up. I wouldn't try to silence anyone discussing such a serious topic, and speculation may be necessary. It's about finding a balance.

That nobody would pay their ransom in future. They operate just like businesses, just the material is illegal. But business trust is still a significant part. If they don't keep their word then they won't get future ransoms. And I'm yet to hear of any hacker group dumping records after they...

How gullible do they think we are to say they formatted it but didn't draft it with AI? If they can draft the letter then the punctuation is not an issue. AI had more involvement in that letter than just formatting.

Lots of differences between cruises, as much as with hotels or flights. Nothing wrong with that experience, but it doesn't represent all cruises either.

It likely won't be - unless the thieves decide to put the database out there. That is a site covered data that's been released typically on the dark web. At this stage, QANTAS is the only one who has the knowledge of what has gone out as the data itself has not been released, and Qantas won't...

Your original booking confirmation should list the cancellation terms, which are in their full terms here: https://www.cunard.com/content/dam/cunard/marketing-assets/pdf/booking-condition-pdf/Cunard_Booking_Conditions_June_2025.pdf Based on 14 days to go, and if you booked direct, you should be...

FL360's take is the one I have as well. Just depends which sales option you'd prefer, including which currency you may prefer to use.

Why would the remaining flyers contribute more? That doesn't make sense. They're not going to buy a few more trips - or buy more expensive fares - because there are fewer other high tier fliers (not that Velocity actually publishes those numbers anyway). Plus if they're the low flying fliers...

Qantas have done the rebooking so it sits with them to get through to the destination for these connecting flights. Given they changed the 2nd flight, it's not safe to assume that the 3rd flight to Cuz was left as is. That boarding pass may no longer be valid as that sector may also not have...

If the base fare was a Virgin operated flight, any bonus applying to that will also go in the same Virgin operated bucket.

Your status review date is Jan, so you don't need to worry about the 238 VA credits by Oct. That's just when the change will apply for calculations from that point on. But they don't review you in Oct unless/until you need to be reviewed (e.g. upgrade/renewal).

While we'd all love extra space/less crowding e.g. empty seat rows down the back of the bus, it doesn't mean it's good for business. Of course, that's their problem... but businesses normally would rather not leave money on the table than prioritise customer satisfaction at their cost... and I...
