Some interesting commentary here: https://www.executivetraveller.com/news/virgin-australia-singapore-airlines-partnership-changes I'm happy this won't change.

SmartEx didn't have all the routes we wanted to travel...we just came back from Morioka, Akita, Hirosaki, Aomori and Lake Towada. We booked our Shinkansen tickets on the JR East website and linked the e tickets to our Suica cards...it was great as we didn't have to collect any paper tickets and...

Charged overnight :(

Given they are giving you 2 lounge passes per year for family /friends, I suspect Va lounge access will only be for the main card holder only. Virgin Australia Guest Lounge Passes

+1 was going to cancel the card in January...if she and any additional card holders can get into Va lounges, it might be a keeper!

If heading to Kings Canyon to do the rim walk (recommended) which took us about 3 hours IIRC, you really need to stay the night there and start the walk at first light in the morning and complete the walk before it gets too hot. Then drive back to Uluru. If you are only there for 3 nights I...

Im LT Gold with QF and have been QF Plat for last 13 years. I have been Va Plat achueved with partner airlines ie Sq to Europe and back in J and family pooling but there weren't much real benefits for me so prior to the announced changes, I had already dropped Va Plat-->Gold-->Silver-->Red in...

How long does it normally take for the credit card charge to appear? I have been back 11 days now and still no sign of the ¥6000 charge on my credit card. ;)

Thanks. I think it is $4000 in first year and $60000 in subsequent years. Annual fee is waived for 1st year, then $450 after. I was thinking of keeping the card for 2 years for *A Gold via Aeroplan, then cancelling and asking +1 to apply. So *A Gold for 2 years for $450...not too bad! We tend...

I'm thinking of applying for the HSBC *Alliance card in Jan 2025 and sekking *A Gold status with Aeroplan. As I understand, I will keep *A Gold until end of Dec 2026 with Aeroplan. Is this correct? Also, I understand *A Gold with Aeroplan gets me access to Va Domestic lounges +1 guest (but no...

Tried what you described...but didn't work so now on hold to EDR listening to very annoying music! Edit: So finally got through after 30 mins...she did the TF manually and said it could take up to 20 mins for the points to hit my Qf account...nothing yet..she said it should normally happen...

Now the EDR website is down...was trying to look up their number to call them. :(

Taken by above poster. :)

No...but the $$ amount saved for Xmas has disappered. Will give it a day or so...

So I'm into my new Qantas year...I changed my EDR choice from Bank for Xmas to auto TF to QF. I note it had said my Bank for Xmas $$ won't be available till Nov13...so when will I expect all the points to hit my Qf account? Thanks

Strong preference os for someone who has given away somethng for free on AFF. Pls post that link so I can verify you have given something away for free. If no one meets that criteria, first person that posts on this thread from 8 pm Sydney time tonight onwards (not earlier!) can have them...

I wish I knew that...I bought 3x$300 CMGCs, each card split into 5×$60 payments...took 10 mins with a very patient sales lady...lucky it was about 11am on a weekday and store was quite quiet!

25% off expensive train fare to / from Sydney airport is ok deal ;)

I dislike set menus and compulsory tips so hats off to RooFlyer for a workaround ;)

Ditto here. :)
