    Virgin Raises Lounge Membership Prices

    and if you are not flying that much, then use the $450 to buy a sandwich and soft drink at one of the airport outlets.

    Virgin Raises Lounge Membership Prices

    I have both Priority Pass and Platinum Velocity. I like the Virgin lounges but I do fly internationally (and from lounge and PP less Launceston), so the PP is great (free with my credit card). Used both together in Sydney last week - better food at T2 than the lounge offering.

    Qatar Airways may buy Virgin Australia in full - what are the consequences?

    So many hypothesis surrounded by speculation with an overlay of inaccuracy. My favourite was the Australian Government buying an airline - now that was very funny.

    Pets in the Cabin - Coming soon on Virgin Australia

    The religious point is interesting, I will ask my Muslim partner - they say no. As for being inexpensive, that will be something to watch. BTW: I travel Australia doing house/pet sitting fulltime. No cost, just that the house and pets are nice, with the usual running - power, wifi, TV etc.

    Pets in the Cabin - Coming soon on Virgin Australia

    Hmm. I love cats and dogs but not sure having them in the cabin is ideal. Barking, meowing, 💩 smells? It's bad enough with children on board 🤭😉.

    Need 5 Status Credits to maintain Plat - Possible without flying?

    Be careful with Flybuys for credits. Sometimes they come through in days but Jan appeared two days ago. Go to LST. Cheaper than Flybuys anyway.

    Family Pooling benefits when not on a flight with the beneficiary

    I would have thought it was straight forward, Gold gets x and Red gets nothing.

    Family Pooling benefits when not on a flight with the beneficiary

    In theory you are not entitled to the Gold benefits even if you do travel together on one booking or two bookings but in practice (as others have said), it doesn't seem to be checked. My partner is also red.
