Any potential it could have also been someone that was booked in business on another flight and disrupted and now on a business ticket in economy?

I have a SYD-ADL J I booked in slot #3 from your post above that I fly Tomorrow - I did however change it from Saturday to Friday after the period - so watching out to make sure it posts DSC

Referral links still go to the explorer card. Been waiting to refer someone, now that it's got lounge access for every single VA flight I can see it potentially being more attractive for some people who were on the fence.

My partner received 50SC on 5/11 also. They were due to hit the $50k in about 6 weeks so we were about to turn on family pooling in about 2 weeks to get the 100 SC polled into my velocity account. If Amex have changed this without officially notifying of the change of terms/benefits to existing...

I have asked this a few times how i get straight to the "premium" team each time I get handed over like that. I mean I enter my velocity number in the phone so it knows I'm Platinum! However the response was that I just have to go through that process to be then handed over to the premium...

Being tall myself the complimentary economyx is one of the main benefits of retaining Platinum for me. I would pay for it on most flights if I wasn't platinum, but would study the pricing more to see how to get it for the best price. I've also got a westpac card which has 2x complimentary...

What I did like for the excessively priced Economy X in the past was it was as a WP was easy to get an exit row for late bookings/fly ahead/changes. Being a tall person if I couldn't get an economyx seat I would skip flying ahead.

Since 2013 I've been Platinum for about 8 of those years and Gold for about 2, So I'm ball parking around the 8x800 + 2x400 = 7,200 lifetime status mark. easily >75% will be VA flights. I thought at first before calculating I would be pretty close, if they included back a few more years from...

Noticed when booking a flight during today's happy hour that there are now zones for economyx As Platinum all zones are still complimentary. Pricing below is as was shown for an ADL-SYD flight Economy X Zone 1: Row 3 $59 Zone 2: Row 4-5 $57 Exit row: Rows 13-14 $20 Preferred seating Zone...

was just about to refer someone and discovered that the referral was going to the Explorer Card. Generic Link to explorer: https://www.americanexpress.com/en-au/credit-cards/explorer-credit-card/ I wonder if we will see the end of the comp flight on the velocity platinum card like we...

I noticed this in my account around March this year I had 16 available in my account. I laughed when I saw it as I knew that it's too pricey for flex fares most of the time these days. Been booking more D class business fares than Y class flex economy fares this year. I am now half way through...

I had the same problem several days ago - even after clearing cookies and trying multiple browsers on Windows (Chrome / Edge) still wouldn't work. Ended up doing my booking on Safari on iPad which worked.. OK for me at the moment on my Desktop web browser :)

If it’s a prepaid rate you can’t use discovery dollars online, only credit card. Flexible rates the discovery dollars applied at checkout but the credit card for any bookings I made has only been to secure the booking with no charge or pre auth at the time of booking. Just a preauthorise for...

Could be a miscommunication but in the SQ lounge at PER this morning before SQ224 boarding the lounge announced there will be no WiFi aboard today's flight due to a "system breach"

I'd love to join in also after just coming across this post - will be PLATINUM confirmed for The Duke of Brunswick I'm already booked in there Sunday 28 to Wednesday 31 July - but might need to add in the saturday night also (edit: done - picked up a fantastic red hot deal)

I will either book through either of these websites: GHA, Pan Pacific, Park Royal, OAKS. No problems getting D$ and stay credit for all those direct methods above. It's worth checking the GHA website and the brand website as they sometimes have different rates/inventory/availability between the...

Email today being able to buy D$ Discovery Dollars https://www.ghadiscovery.com/buy-discovery-dollars Up until 31st August there is a 15% discount for Titanium Members. (10% for regular, 12% for gold and 14% for Platinum) D$ purchased last for 2 years. I have a stay coming up at Pan Pacific...

With Pan Pacific Perth they definitely do NOT provide club access for titanium. Even if you get room upgrade to "Club type" room you don't get club access but they may offer to pay an extra ~$50 or so per person to get club access. Park Royal on beach road Singapore however I got upgraded to a...

Pan Pacific and Park Royal are always perfect with all advertised benefits. OAKS is a mixed bag most of the time do not get the advertised benefits but the brand stay is recogninsed on my account. I retain Titanium every year by staying 3 brands each year. Usually Pan Pacific Perth Park Royal...
