Virgin Australia Questions & Answers

I don't believe so. To fly direct you will need to fly Jetstar

I can confirm that there is

Not sure...this is the first flight i have booked with them in 5 years...I have 2 domestic flights booked for tomorrow and Friday..I will find out...but nonetheless theyre a bloody ripoff

There is an online complaint process on the website. It is easy to find. Keep your booking number and flight number because they ask for those and your form won't be submitted without them.

If it's a gift for someone it's not personal; if you drink it, it is.

Yep. They held a raffle in the departure lounge for ‘Who wants to fly a plane today’ and lucky Sidney was the winner!!! Lol.

What an odd question. I will assume the flight was delayed for operational reasons and they were waiting on a pilot from a flight FROM SYDNEY PERHAPS??

Don’t stress the small stuff Adiewan...

Because they are a greedy and inept airline.

We recently flew to the USA and there were a multitude of taxes shown on our tickets.
The thing to remember is, its the final price that counts.
It wouldn't concern me in the slightest if the ticket showed $1499.98 "hooray for holidays USA tax" and $0.02 return flights to the USA.
As long as I only pay $1500 as quoted, why worry about it.

Bob the Blender...... you really are easily pleased, wish I could have such a simple life as yours!!!

Because they are a greedy and inept airline.

I've only encountered this once back in 1981 as a friend flying with me between Coolangatta and Sydney changed her plans.
She gave her ticket to a friend to travel with me and we arrived at the check-in desk, naturally the name on her ticket did not match.
TAA (in those days) said it would cost $132 each way to change the name on the ticket, yet the flight was also $132 each way (business class).
At the time, the other person travelling with me worked for Births Deaths & Marriages and stated "it costs $25 for me to change my name by deed pole - should I do that instead, because I have time to run back in to town and do it".
The TAA staff member's jaw dropped to the floor and she said "that wont be necessary, we wont worry this time" - then changed the details within minutes and gave her a new ticket.
Just like everything these days, all sellers will see how much you are prepared to pay and charge or waive the price accordingly.

Just another excuse to make money of the backs of paying customers... $400 for 60seconds work on computer...

You should get away with it - they don't seem to pay too much attention to hand luggage as long as it is reasonable.

Thank you, much appreciated.

It depends on the baggage checker - we were once charged $140 for an 'oversized' small suitcase, only to see much larger ones being forced into the overhead lockers!

Certainly not as cabin baggage. Please check with the airline for checked baggage.

Hi Daniel, I would check with the airline directly by giving them a call but I believe you can have sharp items in your check in baggage [not hand luggage]. You will need to declare it when you go to check in.

Because they are a second rate airline!

You were lucky you were able to book on-line. I gave up and rang after the hopeless website refused to work!

Its a rip off airline too....why cant they automatically apply the $15 discount vouchers to my next flight booking.????
