Another great start to my week with a Jayden Wong trip report. I loved the price and perks comparison. Great information.
Great video Jayden!
Enjoyed it as always ๐
Short but great one Jayden! I agree that VA Gold on most major domestic routes is a better deal than QF Gold. Itโs also soo much easier to get. I also agree that free drinks and a snack would also be great for Gold/Platinum Frequent flyers. On the MH A350 topic they also have them flying to melb from December to March or something like that. Keep it up mate ๐
What happened to Virgin Australia inflight entertainment? I flew on a few domestic flights with Virgin Blue (as they were then) in 2009 and they had seatback screens which even included live TV which I thought was amazing back then. ๐ฏ
I presume it's the same company BTW but just renamed lol?
Very nice ! ๐
Another underrated feature is family pooling. If you have kids and or a husband that doesn't travel that much, you can pool all the points and status credits together so you can get to Gold really easily with just a few trips.
Any thoughts of coming back to Bali Jayden? ๐
I'm loving all your videos!๐
Can't believe it's Thursday already lol
Sadly those perks do not exist in North America
Jayden u want hose features at home just renovate lol ๐
Economy x is economy plus for everyone else
Jayden still no seat sanitizing lol ๐
So do u prefer government run Virgin or independent quantas
I doubt u will be flying Aeroflot any time soon Jayden
another fantastic video of your Aussie trip. thanks Jayden
Fly form Singapore to Mumbai india on the Singapore Airlines a380 flight on December 15 2022 and on economy class.
I love watching your Trip Reports Jayden ๐
I'm a Gold status member . Fantastic being able to have extra luggage allowance and yes a few other perks . Only downside there are no international lounges owned or operated by VA but I'm able to at least use some international partner lounges
be careful with s7! they LEFT ME IN RUSSIA! after fucking up my "partial cancellation/Rebooking" , no new ticket never issued to my mail.
Hi Jayden yes it's good to have priority boarding plus the perks.

Hi Jayden did you forget to upload today?? ๐๐
Didn't know VA brought back post-flight lounge access until I saw this video ๐
9:54 I live near the tram line in HK island ๐ฎ. Hope we can take the tram together if we happen to be in HK at the same time
Great report! The lounge looked very nice and the flight as well. Looking forward to your Europe reports coming up! โค
Do you think weโre ever going to have meals included with your ticket?
