Does anybody know which of the VA partner airline to recommend?
Seems like we have Velocity benefits on Etihad according to the VA website i.e. Lounge access and pref check in. This is a full extra day though (overnight) in AUH....to get back home. Has anybody got an upgrade on Etihad lately? If so it may be worth it.....but not sure
.
Other alternative is MAS. We used to have access to the Malaysian lounge in MEL on the JNB route but would we have this luxury connecting in KUL?
