Only one invite, which I couldn’t make (because I was travelling, probably with the other mob).

On an unrelated matter, out of curiosity, when flying Dom Y on a 737, do any of my fellow P1s get automatically allocated row 4?

Yes I usually get 4A by default.

Im also forward with a view and I get row 5. I then change to 4.
Strange that its not automatically allocated but i guess i will add it to all the other quirky occurrences. On another matter, i am delighted to advise that a domestic CSM actually made a real effort with his only P1 whilst on a Perth-Bris flight this week. He even wrote out a very nice thank you card. Big shout out to Phil!!!

Re the events, I would say that I have been invited to ~1 per (non-COVID) year of being P1. Never to something I've really wanted to go to though.

On an unrelated matter, out of curiosity, when flying Dom Y on a 737, do any of my fellow P1s get automatically allocated row 4? Despite my preferences noting forward and on most of these flights row 4 (in both window and aisle) having availability, I always seem to be put in row 5. Not so much an issue as I change it straight away but curious more than anything.

This is because 4A is for pax with service animals.
If you have forward window in your profile it automatically boots you to 5A.

Has been doing this for a few years now.

Interesting just had to discuss a booking and rang VIP time and after a lengthy hold I was answered and the person didn't seem to know what they were doing even asked me to verify my full name 3 times. Turns out she was based in Auckland. She assured me she was a VIP team member. Anyway after 20 minutes I hung up as it was going nowhere. I will wait till I am.at the airport tomorrow and they can sort it.

When did Qf start a VIP team in Auckland?

They didn’t, overflow calls go there and the agents answer as VIP as you are P1.
