As I'll be Platinum again soon enough, has anyone ever seen a fast track, by way of status points I guess, to Diamond?

Shame there isn't a similar deal for the Platinum Card :P

Sounds like Any Seat Award, or whatever they're called now?

You sort of have to look at the history of AFF and apps to fully understand, but years ago there was an app when we used vBulletin. It was a skinned version of one provided by Tapatalk. It worked quite well at the time, some interesting features, but Tapatalk got too big for their boots and...

I could see it being called Diamond, much to the chagrin of CX, but the issue really comes down to numbers of users in those levels at each airline as to what benefits could be expected/access to the best experiences. Think of it like the CL lounge or P1/CL getting reserved spots in the F...

If you'll become (drop down to) Silver 1st December, I'd book a long range 3-night stay in mid-December now as cheaply as you can get - this promotion will then see you earn equivalent 33 nights when you take that stay and push you back up to Gold, with possible 2 whole years worth as you'll...

If it were me, I'd send a politely-worded email to see if the issues could be resolved with the story, and then when it was resolved either in the positive or negative, I'd post a thread showing that I got the story changed to correctly report the facts - thus showing it was ignorance on the...

Do you generally find you have to ask at check-in, or is it proactively offered?

Would it not be best to email the AFR with this question, rather than posting on AFF hoping someone from the AFR is reading your posts? Colour me confused. The reporters email address is even listed at the bottom of the article. I would raise it with her directly.

Came through on Saturday with +30 extra (so, 33 total) status nights :)

I'll be "checking out" of my hotel room today, so hoping for a good result.

The terms say "any retail shareholder owning at least 50 bearer shares or 1 registered share" - but from what I've read elsewhere the amount you need is 50 shares, and they're currently $39.37 EUR apiece... I've also heard the Gold upgrade only lasts until the end of the following year. Not...

Back in the day, EXST were great on QLink flights, but it has been many years since I last booked one.

I ended up with the Highland Park Cask Strength Release No.2, which I see originally sold for $205, and sells for closer to $300 on the internet. I didn't buy it at the time and am not sure what to make of it. Another to add to the collection.

If this were 2014, I'd say sure thing. My only year as a P1 I racked up an impressive amount of comp upgrades and invites to various events. I have since heard things have got worse each year :p

It's a MySQL search restriction. I can't recall if a better search engine was installed, but this can be fixed with ElasticSearch/XFES, so the current search settings may need to be examined.

I've looked at that solution, and while it would be possible if @admin felt adventurous getting into the code, I believe there is a new version of Xenforo around the corner and it might cause incompatibilities when that launches. If it isn't in that new version by default, the question may need...

Not all are the same. I'm no expert, but I have seen photos of MEL where it's quite contemporary and BNE where after the reno it's quite swish. I recall BNE before the reno was a shoebox. IIRC SYD is the same as either PER or CBR or both?

My parents regularly fly out of Thailand right now as they have property there, but not sure they'd want the recliner style-J of JQ over the proper seat on QF, despite not having to connect through SYD.

I haven't cancelled yet and have forgotten to opt-out at least once... but lately I haven't seen as much that has really grabbed me like it used to. I did play the lottery this occasion to see what would come of it.
