Just got a gate op up from J to F for me and my partner AUH LHR A380

Has anyone done the match since they added the $79 fee? I only just made Virgin Platinum now and would pay the money if they matched to Etihad Platinum - won't bother for Gold - so curious if they've gotten platinum out of it.

Also curious, but I am guessing they will run the promotion at some point in the future anyway, I still have 1 year and 4 months of platinum.

Does anyone know if it is possible to change a half flown itenerary to Etihad? Half way through one, and another one booked, and all currently allocated to my VFF account, but think best to move now to Etihad as that's where I'll end up. Help?

Just change your FF details online (or at checkin prior to the next sector(s)).

That shouldn’t affect sector(s) already flown.

Gotcha. Won't let me do it online easily, so I'll try ahead of my next flight at checkin (in Spanish - lets see how we go!)

If you call the main line and your phone number is registered with Etihad Guest, you'll be pushed to the next available agent.
Works well!
