10 Ways Virgin Blue Could Have Done Better

If you, like me, are a Virgin Blue Velocity Club member chances are you would have received a mistakenly sent free upgrade to their Velocity Gold membership.

This is a membership that provides loads of extra goodies for frequent travelers, including lounge membership (food, showers, web access and more), priority check in, more luggage allowance and loads more.

Anyway, Virgin Blue sent out the FREE upgrade offer by mistake.

A few hours later they realised that mistake and sent an apology email, clarifying that, yes indeed, someone had cocked things up a bit and I (along with lots of other people) weren’t really getting the free upgrade.  Ooops and sorry.

There has been such an outcry over this from some quarters, including the threat of a Class Action, demands for compensatory travel vouchers and more that I decided to write a Top 10 list of ways Virgin Blue could have handled this mistake better.

Self Righteous Indignation Hits An All Time High

10 Ways Virgin Blue Could Have Done Better

1. Not have such a bunch of self righteous, over-inflated ego maniac, pompous, arrogant, entitlement assuming jerks as Velocity Club members who will whinge, whine and get their panties in a twist over a simple error that gets very quickly corrected.
2. See above.
3. See above.
4. See above.
5. See above.
6. See above.
7. See above.
8. See above.
9. See above.
10. See above.

Here’s an idea - worry about stuff that’s important in life.

The fact that you didn’t get an upgrade you’re not entitled too isn’t so important in the big scheme of things.
