I booked 3 hotels in Chile meeting the minimum$100 criteria. The first 2 went off fine. Today I reached the last hotel, and found 2 ladies who appeared to be living at the address. The hot el sign is down and no signs of any hotel functions, seems like a house. Through Google Translate they...

Nice to see another Pacific route to use points on. I wish they would fly to Munda or Gizo, Solomon Islands. Domestic flights from HIR are expensive and no way to use points.

I just did this so documenting it before I forget. I have US and Australia passports. Flying to Chile where US citizens don’t need a visa and Aussies do. I put US passport in the Apis. I was able to check in online and get boarding passes for both BNE-SYD and SYD- SCL. At SYD passport...

1729027817 Slender billed Parakeets, Puerto Varas, Chile

Maybe I was just lucky but I was originally in 56A on a 789 and when I looked 48 hours prior to check in I was able to select 40C (bulkhead) for no additional cost. 40 DEF are available for $190. I am only a bronze level. When I made the change, my original seat was no longer available to...

I am really stressing over next week's QF 27 which is a 789 in light of all these delays. The BLR one sounds like a nightmare and QF doesn't seem to have enough 787's to service all the scheduled flights and the repatriation flights. i wish they would just let QR or some other airline with...

Why are the flights going all the way to SYD? Why not just drop everyone off in PER to make domestic connections safely to their home airports and save 4.5 hours flying time each way, crew hours, turn around, etc for the 2nd flight?

Is there any logical explanation why the flight was delayed if the plane was already on the ground? Weather? Strike? I don't think crew time-out is likely when the flight originates in SYD. Just worried because I am on this flight next week and trying to make a connection to LA domestic...

Does anyone know what is going on with QF 27? Google flights and Qantas show it leaving 2.5 hours late. Flightaware doesn't show it at all. SYD weather doesn't look bad or anything.

You got 22 out of 30 questions (73.30%) correct! You have completed this quiz. The ones about status/benefits and Aussie banks messed me up

Milkrun (Woolies partner) also got 3x on CSP. I think Woolies does as well, I have to do an order next week so I will find out.

Does anyone know what caused the diversion? I stumbled on this because I am tracking the on-time records of QF 27 (SYD-SCL) which was delayed due to late arrival of QF 4.

Yes, I was buying Activ gift cards there to pay all my normal expenses and got 5x. You can also use Vodafone and Foxtel for 5x. That was all I found in Australia, others may know more places.

Now if only VA would adopt Avios and be transferable at 1:1 with QR and other Avios airlines and still earned from Flybuys at same rate!

Did you use a mail forwarder or a real address?

I should point out that other countries don't have the same system of only considering income from employment. The banks in the USA look at your Fico score and history of paying off debts to determine if you are worthy of a credit card. There is no blanket discrmination and retirees on social...

Last year I got it approved instantly with an invitation and code from a flight attendant on AA flight. No minimum spend, fee free for first year for 60k. I kept it one year then cancelled it. I'd day grab it before it goes away.

We stayed at Acheiver's Hotel near T4 a few months ago. It was fine for a night, they have a free shuttle, good wifi and a decent restaurant.

Mine - Spend $100 for 4 weeks/10K - up from $90 last time Husband - Nothing Just as well as I will be in South America next month. I'll put $20 on each account and hope they come back down for Nov.

Yes, I do this with BA Avios from Chase. Sometimes QR has J class awards that aren't offered on other Avios partners. QR and BA have the same taxes/fees.
