Well Batik is now pulling ADL-DPS from July 24th due to lack of aircraft. Cutting down frequency between now and then

10k was minimum if I recall correctly

Transfer hotel points over. When I first signed up to Virgin Atlantic I transferred a small amount of Hilton Honors points over and they credited almost instantly

My understanding though is that ADL-DPS direct will return once they have more aircraft. So eventually it might be ADL-DPS and ADL-PER-DPS

Have flown CX many times and even on the intra Asian routes I’ve found the food good. They do a pretty good job IMO

Issue is ADL folk lose a direct flight. I would guess the majority of us have zero interest in going via PER so VA are just handing over more traffic to JQ and Batik. Really disappointing but personally we are lucky that we have many other options to get there

Ughh that menu doesn’t look great. I’ve got award seats on QF29 in September but still looking at other options

Which is why we usually fly VA outbound as it leaves at a great time. . On the inbound we nearly always fly GA as I can’t do overnighters in recliner. Occasionally we will fly with SQ or MH so that is still an option

Nope. Not interested in going via PER. and doing 2 3hr plus stints in a recliner. Easier to go to MEL and get proper J cabin on GA

Yeah, not interested in Batik. If there is no VA from ADL we will just go to MEL or SYD and go with GA

Ze Germans are here today. The Luftwaffe “Konrad Adaneur” A350 at ADL this morning. Stopped for refueling in DPS on the way here. The minister is heading out to Osborne to check out the subs with Penny before heading to Auckland this arvo for a few days then on to Fiji. Her last trip was...

My parents live over that way and used Bonza twice to go Albury to Sunshine Coast return to see Mums sister and they said flights were fully booked. They don’t use apps so I booked it for them. Qantas charges about $700 each return via SYD from Albury whereas they got Bonza for half that. They...

I’ve got Accor Plus but I’ve never seen anything appealing with any of these other programs such as Signature. Doesn’t seem to have any benefits for me personally

Nice. I love the Kung Pao Chicken dish but have now had it on my last 5 flights 🤣

Was told this morning that they owe a bit to several airports and quite a bit to their maintenance provider

Funnily enough I can book it on QR with Avios but on BA website it says “BA or its partners don’t fly this route”

Have you got any Avios? Plenty of availability to book with Avios

Yes, March 29th which is in my new period. All my flights were in Feb so the standard SC’s posted immediately pretty much into last years period in which I had already re-qualified for.

Checked yesterday and saw that the full compliment had landed. Not that I need them but they posted in my new qualifying period. As a side note I signed up to the double points for business program and flew 2 sectors in the last few days and the bonus points arrived at the same time as the...

ADL-MEL still cops a daily Q300
