Applied last night, approval came through less than 12 hours later with nothing more than a payslip supplied. Much better experience with some other banks that have really made it hard to get approved.

How are things looking for QF93 departing June 23 and either QF94 or QF96 departing July 2? Hoping for a Y->J upgrade

What comparative Y->J upgrade success rates are WP's seeing between QF94 (A380) and QF96 (787) between LAX and MEL? From my own small sample set, I've only managed a Y->PE upgrade on the 787 previously 2/2 times and Y->J 2/4 and Y->PE 1/4 times on the A380. I would expect more success on the...

From here I plan to churn between 1 QFF point per dollar Visa cards and mix in an Amex Qantas Ultimate for 100K points x 2 every 18 months or so between Mrs HockeyMonkey and I. The extra 0.25 points per dollar just isn't worth it.

https://www.flyertalk.com/forum/premium-fare-deals/1964036-nrt-lhr-malaysian-f-ow-1-982-rt-3-116-a.html How much status would this credit to QF? I'm trying to work out what this text means at Frequent Flyer - Flying Qantas and Partner Airlines - Flying with Qantas & Jetstar - Earning Qantas...

Does missing out on 100,000 QFF points on a credit card churn count? I mistakenly thought i’d met the minimum spend requirements but was $80 short due to a bpay payment :(

I rang their service centre and they promised to credit for Feb manually given the transaction on Feb 28 missed the statement period.

In October Mrs HockeyMonkey needs to be in ATL and I need to be in ORD at the same time for work. We would also like to spend a week together in JFK either before or after our work commitments. Could we make the AY RTW J fares work in our favour? Origin in MEL.

How did you go? I managed to spend $150 in Feb but some of the transactions haven’t posted yet. Hoping it is based on the transaction date if it is by calendar month.

Maybe Mrs HockeyMonkey and I are just in the wrong sectors (University and Software respectively) but both of our current employers and all past employers have had a Y policy. How common are J or F travel policies outside of the finance sector these days?

In that instance, would the allow you to fly a different rout and then apply original routing credits?

Damn, my SC reset date is 31 Aug exactly

As a WP that may struggle to requalify, this card has some merit 20% easier to retain WP although not if tied to a DSC promotion All my business travel is done on personal cards and reimbursed although I note it must be booked on Qantas.com 1.25 points/dollar for all transactions (except...

I’m in the same boat

Another nice strategy if you have an eligible partner is to join yourself and then refer them for a total of 230k points for 2x$450=$900 in Qantas flights. If not please consider me as your partner ;) http://amex.com.au/refer/roberllmeu9?CPID=100199911

I don’t think the additional card holders get the SC bonus

I hope this is true. Would mean 1 QFF point per dollar overseas with no international fees on the Macquarie Black card Macquarie Bank cancels Hilton Honors Visa credit card As part of the changes, Macquarie Bank will also remove the 3% international transaction fee from all of its...

Understood. I’m planning of flying QF J MEL xSYD DPS return. The MH J side trip is just a bonus ;)

I’m tossing up between this and DPS xKUL LGK as part of a QF DSC whenever it next occurs leveraging the new A330 SYD DPS

The thing is going inside an enclosed space is not an open water dive.
