How to find Business class on Virgin Australia? Perth to Europe ( Munich/Paris)

[aiimmy]

Hi Team, so ive found business class on Krisflyer but can't transfer my points from Virgin to Krisflyer. I can't seem to find any business class tickets on Virgin Australia. Have they stopped releasing business class on virgin? Is there a way around this? Thanks

SQ aren’t releasing J awards to any partners currently. You will have to wait until they release seats to VA or bring back the points transfer option

Thanks for letting me know. Even Virgin Australia doesn't seem to be releasing business class seats at all ? I can only see economy. I'm happy to work around them but i just need to travel April/May. Thanks

VA don’t have any seats to release, it’s a SQ issue

Virgin have no access to SQ premium classes at all.

They were not able to negotiate access to them after their collapse with their new deal with SQ.

We all hope this is just temporary and they will get access and also reinstate the ability to transfer of Velocity points to Singapore as well - but there are no confirmed dates as to when this will happen unfortunately.

There should EY options but the surcharges are outrageous….

Backtracking via MEL or @SYD?

It not just VA, SQ are not currently releasing Business/First rewards seats to any partner airline, Star alliance included.

no it’s all VA’s fault for SQ not releasing premium awards to ANYBODY
