So it looks like the July applications are hot on the heels of the June ones.

 

[elbarto]

I just noticed I never included my membership number in my original request Sent them a follow up with the membership number but I'm not getting my hopes up.

End of the game :-(

I just got that email as well. Applied on June 4th. Matched from QF WP. I guess better late than never

The email mentioned that the card has been dispatched. I guess that means I can use it to access VA lounges now

[Nizar]

Matched from QF SG, yay !!

First world problem i suppose lol

 

[knightman7]

So a question regarding lounge access with this now.

I book a VA flight from PER -> DPS in Y. I use my VA FF number in the book as I want the points there. VA Gold and above would have access to the SIA lounge at PER airport. Would I be able to us my EY gold status (which gets my VA lounge access) to enter the SIA lounge?

If not, would booking the VA flight to DPS and giving my EY FF number make any difference?

Thanks to those in the know.

The (EY) terms and conditions state that access is permitted to the VA lounges only.

Has this changed recently? About 2 years ago, my EY Gold card got me access to the Koru lounge in SYD when flying with VA to AUH in Y.

Edit: come to think of it, I might have been flying on an EY code, maybe that was why

Thanks, but obviously not the answer I was hoping for

Regarding the other benefits. Ie baggage, priority boarding etc. Would one need register thier EY FF number on the booking rather than their VA to gain those benefits?

Do EY send out a physical card as part of a status match usually or must you request it ?
