Aug 07, 2025, 01:15 PMSo any Status Credits that I earn but family-pool to my wife (or vice versa) don't count for either of us in terms of the SC's needed to get to Forever Gold? Is that correct?

Virgin moves to spend-based Velocity status earning
Oct 17, 2024, 10:09 AMWhat planet is Nick Rohrlach on? It's self-evidently NOT “an inherently “simpler” way to track and earn status” , despite what he is trying to persuade us to believe. Previously, even before booking the flight, I would know that a flight would earn me a certain number...

Exit row eligibility
Aug 14, 2024, 01:28 PMI have recently flown ADL-PER-ADL and on both flights, the same elderly gentleman was in the exit row seats. He was highly obese and very slow-moving (almost shuffling along; pretty much everyone overtook him easily on the aerobridge and he leant on most of the rows of seats on his way to the exi...
