Oct 11, 2018, 07:50 PMJust to follow up on this. On the Velocity website, it says, if there are any errors, please allow 14 days before you communicate it with them. It was around 10 days after the completion of travel that I can see adjusted status credits being added. Well done Velocity.

Long Awaited international 'Virgin' lounge at Brisbane - a fizzer
Sep 29, 2019, 08:38 PMI was there recently for a few hours due to a flight delay. There was little difference in the noises of the regular terminal as the walls are 2.5m (approx) partitions.
