    Velocity Saver Fare clarification.

    I didn't think you could gift these fares. When I have used mine I have always been told by Amex that the card holder must be the traveller. Also as a point of interest these fares must be a return flight to same location as departure flight.

    Quickest way to get 5K qantas points

    EpiQure purchase worked well, for less than buying the points directly from the website, I got enough points through a bonus offer (posted overnight) plus 6 bottles of wine, and the J tickets booked this morning. Thanks for the assistance.

    VA6 timing from LAX

    Good afternoon. I have just booked some VA return flights BNE-LAX, and because of the days we need to travel, we are on VA6 out of LAX, departing at 11:15am, arriving BNE 6:15pm the next day.

    What is the attraction of lounges?

    I like the fact I can find a quiet corner and do some work. I do lots of domestic travel and doing some very confidential work and don't need prying eyes over my shoulder. I won't work on flights if I can help it. My clients confidentiality is very important to me and their details and data...
