• Not as bad as I thought:> Invited Guests of Members, Velocity Platinum Members and Velocity Gold Members do not need to be travelling to access the Lounge.Plus the important lounge-on-arrival for business flyers is maintained (critical for those flying MEL-ADL-PER where the ADL-PER had no...

  • Am I going to be okay with my extra baggage and lounge access with Privilege Club Gold if I purchase a Qantas Classic Rewards flight instead of a normal paid Qantas flight? Is there anything special I need to do?

  • My experience is the Accor scheme has been quite miserly full-stop. Has anyone been really impressed with Accor's loyalty programme and what broadly are your travel/accomodation habits?

  • The real question is lounge access for eligible flyers - will it be AirNZ in all affected cities after October?

  • Like mcglynp I'm not too fussed. I'm curious when people are experiencing this problems - I suspect it might be more of a where than a when.Perth and Melbourne lounges always seem to have reasonable space (and I've travelled on Christmas Eve). Sydney does have limitations but it seems more to do ...

  • QANTAS Apology points

    Sep 22, 2022, 09:30 AM

    greg959 is right. It's a link in the third paragraph (literally "here") in an e-mail separate from the app. The e-mail is called "Thank you from Qantas" and was sent around August 22nd. I'd never have found it on my own.

  • QANTAS Apology points

    Gold here waiting on a DBL (Domestic Business Lounge) invitation and no luck. But asking on another forum - a couple had received them. Why Qantas is splitting them across several weeks, or if their systems are malfunctioning, I don't know. I was late to claim/use my voucher (just did last week) ...

  • Virgin Physical Cards and Packs

    Dec 04, 2020, 11:52 AM

    For those of us that have had our status extended, do we get a new physical card? Does it come with luggage tags in a pack or is it just a letter? I was hoping to use it for the Qantas status match but my physical Virgin Gold card expires today (digital is up-to-date). Someone on the forums said ...

  • Virgin Australia online fee

    Feb 26, 2019, 09:04 AM

    I was a little horrified too at the Virgin fees ($11.51 in my case). Use CashBack or ShopBack to recoup a little of it (the former always work though often refunds less than the full fee). Still given Virgin's recent financial performance, you might find that $11 is the best money you've ever spe...

  • Qantas flights QF 9/QF10 going cheap?

    Jun 18, 2018, 06:36 PM

    Get your downvotes ready, but I actually don't think the QF9/10 economy experience is anything to write home about. It's a long flight in very narrow seats.It would seem I'm not alone in this opinion - one of the last letters to Traveller was complaining about the same thing. Qantas's choice to p...
