You need more clubs so you have more to blame.

Easy mistake, who decided that inflammable and flammable are not opposites.
Faarken English.

Virgin Australia, notifying me of a cancelled flight mere hours before it was scheduled to take off. No explanation given, outside of the ambiguous phrase "for operational reasons". Re-scheduling me on a return flight via another city on the next day, leaving me stranded with no accomodation. Their helpline requiring me to spend 5 minutes punching numbers before I get to a human, who speaks with a semi-comprehensible accent and only knows how to book flights, not handle issues. There being no listed way to directly contact a local virgin office, not even at the airport.
Things that don't give me the shits: My adelaide-based travel team who had me rebooked on a Qantas flight in quick time.
Virgin: you get what you pay for. Serves me right for agreeing to fly with them.

They're all shite Do not accept a flight credit Make sure you demand your money back within 14 days or you will issue proceedings in the small claims court
