I don't know about loss making. Not much anyway. You might pay $400 for the card and need to spend $5000 ($500 for the bank at 1%) in order to get your 100k points. How much is 100k of points plus the card etc really costing the bank?

You never know but my recent experience (Nov on a Monday morning) was a breeze. I flew JQ from MEL due to arrive 7.30 am with 10.50 connection. Landed 1 minutes early, collected my bag, went to the bus (only 2 others waiting) and the bus arrived a couple of minutes later. Google Maps tells me I...
