Yeah there's obviously lots of variables and I can't give you financial advice but I'd say 7 in 2 months is way too much because the serviceability is considered coughulatively across your liabilities so I'd probably ease off for a little while and apply for one at a time

Yes. I asked and they confirmed this was the case

I churn like there's no tomorrow (i.e. I think I'm up to my 10th this year). I only ever have 2 open at once though. I don't even wait until they disappear from my credit check, as soon as I get the points I close and apply for a new one. Only got declined for my second to last one with...

Yep, I have to fly down with Qantas but there are award j seats back for me (to Darwin...) With VA the following day. VA offered a direct and better flight in J than what I have to pay for two red eye flex Y seats with QF :(

Flights booked, I'm platinum!

The numbers aren't coughulative and reflect the different fare classes so J ,C D, I are all business tickets but one is saver, the other is sale etc.

Normally they don't ask you to return it if it's a mistake on their end so, more free wine!

Woo more free wine!

I'm keen to hear what everyone's thoughts are on the etiquette surrounding sleeping in lounges, particularly when it comes to the fancier lounges such as the Qantas/oneworld first lounges in Melbourne, Sydney, LAX, Singapore and similar. Most (if not all) of these lounges don't offer any sort...

Do you mean buying Forex using your cc? Does this work? I know some banks say on t&C that purchase of Forex is excluded as eligible spend

I am also a massive churner and I've found frollo to be quite good. It has had some issues with the virgin velocity card and some cards that are closed continue to appear but generally speaking it has been quite good. Recommend checking it out now to see if it's any better than before.

Hopefully this is on topic, but I was in the "first" lounge this morning and from what I saw it appears to be more of an ante room to the larger j lounge rather than a lounge in and of itself Overall it wasn't the worst lounge I've been in but definitely can't call it a true "first" lounge in...

What are the odds!

Haha I don't fly Jetstar if I can't avoid it but the plane I was on from mel-bne last night also took me to Darwin then back to Brisbane this morning.

I'll be flying that MEL-BNE route tomorrow so hope to be having that!

QF827 DRW-BNE redeye (again) Flew the red-eye from Darwin to Brisbane again but on a fuller flight. Unsurprisingly the only menu option available was the chicken and leek pie so was expecting a repeat of my experience at post #5810 from 2 days ago. The CSM came through with the goods and...

Some of the other salads can be a bit hit and miss (particularly the Halloumi and to an extent the lamb ones that look like something out of woolies) but overall I rate them highly. It can be a nice change from the heavier hot dishes and because I often have to fly multiple domestic legs in a...

I will give it a try!

Gin is my go to to be honest, but I'm hoping to give the affogato a bit of a kick if possible and I don't think vodka, gin or scotch would go well!

QF628 MEL-BNE Flight delayed due to APU issues. Options for food were a chicken and corn soup, the barramundi with tomato and potato, and the chicken quinoa salad. I had to salad and it was actually delicious, probably one of the best domestic J meals I've had. I don't know why but I think...
