    100 SC for ABN - did anyone see?

    Received the same offer and also had travel credit that needed to be used by Dec 31. Ended up booking MEL > SYD in J and then back on a Choice fare to get to 70SC. Was hoping the double status credits would double the 100 bonus as well hahaha wishful thinking hey.

    Melbourne to Europe in Business

    The eye watering price you are seeing on the virgin website is because there is no reward availability for the flight and to be able to book you pay the full plexible rate so to speak.

    Virgin Australia and Qatar Announce Strategic Partnership

    Requirements to board Singapore Air in Australia

    Off the top of my head you could tick a box to say you had a physical copy. If your not going to check-in online though and doing at the counter, I would imagine print out of certificate would be fine.
