Good question. I wouldn't mind making a run at QFF Gold but I believe the points earn will be paltry for DAD-HKG-JFK-HKG-DAD. From what I can tell, the best points earn would be Alaskan.

This may be relevant here. I don't have any status with QFF or Alaskan but have a couple of F flights coming up with CX and then Y flights with QFF later in the year. I also don't have status with AA but, I'm about halfway to a million miles and have about 300K miles with them. Any ideas on...

Same here. I hit $40K this time last year and I am expecting this.

Diamond Two stays at Hilton Sydney in the last two weeks (Friday and Saturday, one week apart). Booked cheapest rate each time. Friday: Paid $192 - received Relaxation Room upgrade the day before in the app. Beautiful ham at Glass for breakfast. Saturday: Paid $285 - no upgrade at all, hotel was...

Two of my upcoming nights in Sydney just went down by $40 each in the last hour.

I got the same email and I am a bit confused. Through the Macquarie card shouldn't we be getting status through 2021? Does this just mean we will be getting the same email in 365 days?

I haven't received this in a while. I still book on the app in the hope that it helps with an upgrade :p

Probably the best thing you will read today: 10-Year-Old Writes Letter To Qantas CEO. He Responds. It's Epic. - Point Me to the Plane

Oddly, I didn't get that, but they did post overnight.

Correct. 10K points for $50 spend for four weeks.

I just checked and mine have arrived :)

Out of our way, meaning our local Woolies isn't the best and we used the offer on two cards, over going to the much larger Coles 50 metres away. I was there and scanned on three of the shops, and the better half says she did on the other shop. I'll give it a few more days. It's a lot of points...

Has anyone just finished a spend for four weeks get X points? It was spend $50 for four weeks, get 10,000 for me. We went out of our way to do two of these and didn't get the points automatically. It says they will post within three days after and I am now four days after.

Agree. And for me, Asia is the only place where I consistently see a decent upgrade available for OLCI. Even then, I still usually wait and see if I get a better one at check-in.

I know the QANTAS version of the new card is not a great deal but is anyone considering this? I haven't had much luck with CC applications lately as my income is spread out over 4-5 roles so thinking of switching to the QANTAS card for the time being.

Thanks for the advice. I am catching the train up from CBR which has somewhat predictable price fluctuations (higher closer to the date). So, I chose to book the first class seat on the train and come back to CBR in the same day rather than stay the night. I have still been checking the app...

I know this is no secret to those that frequent here but the price fluctuations at Hilton Sydney still boggle the mind. I was looking to stay on Saturday night but earlier today the prices were over $500 so I made alternative arrangements. I just checked again and it is $316.

I agree with those saying to make some time for Mt Rainer, Yosemite or Zion/Bryce Canyon. Aside from NYC and SF, the next best destinations in the States are National Parks IMO. Seattle is particularly good because it is surrounded by three of them and not far from Vancouver and Portland which...

I'd pay $50 to use it for a year if that were the scenario. Could be worth asking.

Sounds like the first year is free.
