That sounds like a SC run!

I was always under the impression that virgin staff travel did not cover J class (apart from long haul flights). If staff were in J on a domestic flight, I think they would have purchased a full revenue ticket? Happy to be corrected however

Probably correct. But not relevant to the staff I experienced.

Wonder if I'll get the same from qantas.

We've witnessed FAs upgrade staff, friends and lovers (by the looks of the kiss) from the 20s to row 3 or J quite often.

That was also my understanding. And makes sense too given what I've seen on board. Business Class would have more people in it if staff were allowed to buy.

Staff also stand out, so it would be easy to tell!

Yes, as far as I know and from what I've been told Staff can't buy J seats domestically. Although they certainly can get given upgrades etc...
I actually had one J passenger accuse me of being a staff member and said it was ridiculous I was allowed when the cabin was so busy...
He didn't quite believe me when I said I had never worked for an airline (Maybe I give off the young virgin look...)

You weren't standing in the galley chatting were you?

I was sitting in 1A having a sip of water reading a magazine, I think maybe he was just cranky I got his favourite seat.
