Hopefully over time it has an impact on reducing prices.

If you have access to competitive flexible rates (eg corporate rates) this is a good way to ensure you get the best price too - I'll often cancel and rebook a few times before a stay if prices go down!

Love it! (I mean they do look pretty good, hopefully they have somewhere you can put your contact details or else I lose both of the reasons I have my current RFID ones)

Yes, I registered yesterday, also saw it on ozb this morning so expect it was oversubscribed well before the email was sent.

As a QF WP with PCP i received an offer to upgrade to gold. Notably after I registered, I received an email from accor confirming: The link doesn't help me find out more, but I assume it will require a three night stay based on the email from QF.

You should be pretty safe on a QF flight, but yes I'm always a little anxious until payment is taken (points and taxes) and the ticket number is issued.

I don't check a bag that often on domestic, but when I do, I greatly appreciate not having to apply a paper bag tag. Will be frustrating having to get re-acquainted with those machines...

Now claimed.

Caught this at the last minute, have two passes expiring Thursday. Free to any forum member who joined before 1 January 2024. If you are the first person to comment here, please send me a DM with your qff number and surname and I'll transfer them over when I'm next online.

Yes, my last EK trip on a QF code. I would tend towards trusting what the operating airline says

Seems like everyone's return on spending ratios are dropping quite hard vs what we are used to.

And (IME) if you're on track to, or have missed your flight, this is where you get shuffled if the system hasn't moved you already. Coming off qf8 last year I was shifted to a later flight but managed to get back on the original as it was itself delayed.

Yes, give them a call if there's something online you want to change to. You'll pay the 5k plus I think service fee of it's an economy booking. I don't think I've ever had success changing an award booking online.

650 points each week for spending $70.

Didn't experience this on two award flights in X which posted in the last week. DSC posted the next day for outbound, haven't posted yet for return.

Hmm this retiming makes a same day connection from PER impossible, I previously did the 5/6am (depending on daylight savings) to connect through. Would actually work out quite well for time zone adjustment to crash in bed in the US after the late afternoon arrival, but I appreciate this makes it...

Green Tier's 50 SC and a Loyalty Bonus once you hit 500 sc could help too (unless you've already claimed them!)

Then add on the layer of trying to understand which discounted gift cards you can use where, and managing different accounts within your household to try to optimise "spend X on fuel, get X00 bonus points" :)

Considering GT is a program that all but requires you to book a flight or do other carbon generating activities to earn "green credentials", I'm not sure you're the target market for this

It probably feels straight out of an episode of utopia, but I have pondered some sort of east/central/west power connection for surplus solar generation. East coast would to a small extent support west coast AM, but more importantly west coast afternoon could support east coast major evening...
