What to do when your airline flight is cancelled or delayed
Jul 12, 2018, 07:24 AMIf you fulfill all the criteria in their PDS, then there's no reason why free credit card insurance won't work. However often they have stricter conditions and higher excess fees than paid insurance.

Virgin Australia to launch direct Perth-Hobart flights
Jul 04, 2018, 01:12 PMThis is great news as a loyal Virgin flyer. I live in Launceston and wishfully hope that they will consider a weekend LST-PER service in the future. It's still easier to fly via Melbourne rather than drive down to Hobart.On Saturday mornings, a lot of people transfer from the LST-MEL service onto...

Qantas to fly Boeing 747 Sydney-Perth, Airbus A330 Perth-Singapore
Jul 02, 2018, 02:47 PMTo be honest, I don't think you'd notice much difference in the experience of 747 vs A330 on QF568, in either class.

No pies on Virgin
Jul 01, 2021, 03:12 PMUnfortunately it's not that much better at Qantas - running out of hot food after the first row or two is common.

WA's flip-flopping border policy
Nov 16, 2020, 01:50 PMTo be fair, the WA criteria for quarantine-free entry (very low risk) has always been pegged at 28 days with no community cases.As soon as this is breached, then that state would fall into the next bracket (low risk) which is entry allowed with a 14-day home quarantine.If it gets even worse, then...

Would Virgin use its 777's for transcontinential if economics were viable?
Jul 03, 2020, 01:12 PMOriginally Posted by gredgy69 I will be traveling to Perth next year in April for holidays, but could also be going for work in September/October, so was mulling over the preferences - Virgin 737 or Qantas 737/A330. It got me thinking whether Virgin would use the 777's it owns to fly the transcon...

QF International Business to Domestic Business to Domestic Jetstar - Baggage ...
Oct 27, 2018, 09:44 PMThanks, all flights are on one ticket but looks like I'll need to pick it up in Sydney and in Melbourne.Yes I'm aware of T1/T4 in Melbourne, just wondering if it's worth going T1 to T4 for check-in, back to T1 for lounge and back to T4 for the flight... have to say it doesn't sound appealing!
