When can we start to earn Velocity points / status credits for flying ANA?

Virgin Australla’s Velocity site has for a while listed ANA as an airline partner, indicating that at some time in 2023, it would be possible to earn points / status credits with Velocity when flying ANA.

Does Point Hacks or anyone else know when that starts?

And does Point Hacks or anyone else know if it will be possible to claim such Velocity points / status credits for flying ANA prior to the kick off date (eg. earlier in 2023)?

Thanks!

I doubt any one has the scoop on this that hasn’t been published already. However, I can say with high probability that you won’t be able to retroactively claim status credits and points for ANA flights prior to whenever their partnership begins.
