Why do I get the feeling that the people who cashed out 2 years ago will end up getting the better deal?
Well, they only have a year to use those points and the coming year is still a bit sketchy, so there's that as well.

No and this is not a Virgin problem. SQ is not releasing any premium seats to partners at this time.Any J F class seats surfaced yet…?
I think it is a long time since SQ released F seats to other airlines.Any J F class seats surfaced yet…?
No and this is not a Virgin problem. SQ is not releasing any premium seats to partners at this time.
I'm not unhappy with the proposed arrangement - to be able to transfer points to SQ who (pre-Covid) had great availability for their premium seats seems like a good deal.They could pick another partner who would I guess, but sure.
J seats probably will be eventually - they were available to partners before Covid but not in any large quantity. I believe the SQ J seats are not great - they have misaligned footwells.I still live and hope for J seats to be released. I'm ready to book.
Maybe AC or UA?They could pick another partner who would I guess, but sure.
Some of the SQ flights also regularly gets the regional J config, which has a regionally configured J lie flat when compared to the long-haul configs.J seats probably will be eventually - they were available to partners before Covid but not in any large quantity.

Been really good availability on EY, AC, VS and even HA. UA will hopefully kick in soon aswell as NH plus fingers crossed for SQ soon.They could pick another partner who would I guess, but sure.
This does seem like a bit of a worry, e.g. if a new variant appears in a couple of years and we have to cull international travel again for a bit while they cook up a new vaccine.They are never going to have a huge number of partners though
There has been good availability with partners though IMO.This does seem like a bit of a worry, e.g. if a new variant appears in a couple of years and we have to cull international travel again for a bit while they cook up a new vaccine.
I haven't looked into it, but I suspect given the bespoke nature of VA's partnerships, it will be a slower recovery than other alliances. Does anyone know how J availability is looking for e.g. oneworld?
I know the most likely reason for lower/nil availability is going to be financial recovery, which makes sense. just a shame not to reward the people who held tight while everyone else was cashing in points for JB Hi Fi gift cards

It was excellent a few months ago when airlines started to rebuild their schedules, but availability on the more popular airlines and routes is now very difficult to find.I haven't looked into it, but I suspect given the bespoke nature of VA's partnerships, it will be a slower recovery than other alliances.

No thanks, happy to wait and see what happens as we continue to deal with a global pandemicThey could pick another partner who would I guess, but sure.
