    I'm in the VA Lounge thread

    Used the ADL lounge today at lunch time. I was quite impressed. Large amount of wraps well filled. A tasty butter chicken curry with poppadoms, chutney and fluffy rice (cooked nice). Mac and cheese and soup. All monitored and re stocked as appropriate. I had thought that this lounge receives...

    Business Class "Protocol" and Tips

    I'll also add that if being bussed to the aircraft at Doha for the leg to Europe, in business class you are called last (economy gets called first to the buses). You have your own business class passenger bus. If at gate for immediate boarding via air bridge I can't recall who boards first as...

    I'm in the VA Lounge thread

    Is the ADL lounge any better these days? 🤔...or remains what I recall "just awful". Managing expectations for the wife who is flying VA instead of QF and she kinda likes the QF ADL lounge.

    Will you still earn/retain Velocity status beyond 2025?

    Only a better outcome if the quality of and in the lounge improves imho. They could deal with overcrowding a bit better than what they do especially with physically have enough staff to clear empty tables and restock food items. Have more self service rather than drinks etc behind the bar and...

    Seat bookings on a VA-coded flight on Singapore Air?

    The seat issue with SQ via VA is just rubbish. It just does not seem to work..redemption excluded. ..... If I'm crediting SQ flights to VA in any class I just book through SQ and feel it's just easier even if reduced points or credits. Yet another pain frankly with VA.

    Status Match from Virgin Velocity Platinum

    Without question, just about every airline and frequent flyer programme I belong, has hit the FF hard. It would appear there are just to many of them and a cull is required! However VA as a domestic carrier mostly needs to be very careful. They can lose business and those who go to them by...

    Jetstar no longer selling Max bundle in Economy

    If you buy a Jetstar holiday (flight plus hotel) the blurb says it comes with standard seat selection. If you want the. Extra legroom seats can you buy them after booking confirmation and I assume they will be at the same price as buying without the holiday package and I assume that if they are...

    Virgin Australia UpgradeMe pricing and success

    Looked again on the web site. I do actually see that my bids done some time ago are there. The app no sign nor does it allow me to put on another bid although on the website it seems to allow.me to up the bid if I want. Yet when you first go in and look at "upgrade my flight" it says points...

    Virgin Australia UpgradeMe pricing and success

    Curious one ...first time I have seen this. Looked at checking if I had done an existing offer or if not, popping in an upgrade bid in for up coming flights between PER-ADL-PER. I see on expert flyer X4seats still "available" ex PER and X5 for the ADL-PER sector. Yet on the app and the web...

    "The co-pilot slept in"

    Surprised that more was not made about this "event". Especially if a couple of pax were perhaps somewhat distraught. 🤔
