    Will you still earn/retain Velocity status beyond 2025?

    I'll be Silver next month finally but staying that will not be good for me. I usually go with the lowest flight cost and that is usually Virgin, I find. That won't change.

    SkyBus gone up again [Up to $23.90 one way]

    Thanks for this - I used the last of my 10 ticket book today and I can use this next time I head to Melbourne (no plans at the moment). When I was lining up the other day to get on the bus, I noticed it was now $40 return.

    Major changes to Velocity Frequent Flyer announced 17/10/24

    This will be no good for me. I'm almost to Silver (should hit that in December) and in the future, getting LESS SCs to get above Silver.....

    Latitude 28 Degrees $8 per month starting September 2024

    What's the email address you used? I've emailed them multiple times (and received 2 Request IDs) and no reply at all.

    Targeted Velocity Double SCs or Points Offer [July 2024]

    I got the email. Almost up to silver, so it came at a good time. And the NBL schedule just came out too, so I was able to book flights for some away games I want to get to.

    Seemingly trivial reasons why you choose one hotel/airline/shop over another

    For me, it's being in the city and not have to travel into it - if I do, then it has to have a public transport nearby. And then price - I am usually a solo traveler, so for accommodation, it has to be under $150 a night (domestic). When going to a place for the first time, then I'll look at...

    Article: How to Stop Airlines Losing Your Checked Baggage

    I find this hit and miss. I usually get the first one, but the 2nd one, only every now and then. I've never gotten the 3rd one yet.

    Resilient is my middle name - Christmas with Virgin Voyages

    Thanks for the TR - interesting read. I would like to try VV, but as a solo cruiser (usually), it's out of my price range.

    Damn. I had one that expired last year. If I have any in the future, I'll give it away here.

    Everyday Rewards launches Everyday Extra subscription product

    I mostly shop online (have no car) and it's easier to keep to a budget. I'll use my June discount, then cancel. And I have a delivery unlimited sub as well but I will keep that, as the minimum order amount won't effect me.

    UpgradeMe pricing and success

    Loved the extra legroom, as well as the attention! The flight was delayed for over an hour waiting for one of the pilots, so to be seated in a roomy chair for nearly 3 hours was a bonus. We were served drinks too for longer. I will be keeping a look out for Business Class sales as well as future...

    UpgradeMe pricing and success

    I flew from Melbourne to Sydney last night on VA891. Originally got a Choice fare for less than $100 Made my bid for $70 - the lowest I could offer and won it. When I made the bid, only 2 seats were booked. This was also my first time in Business Class - thought I would have a go and try it.
