    At the risk of ignoring all those questions, my own experience is that the time to upgrade is on the outward journey. By the time you’re travelling home you are tired and just want to get home quickly - the F would be wasted, In terms of waitlisting, you need the points in your account to cover...

    Virgin Australia Business Class - Meals, Menus & Service

    If I had that significant a food allergy I would investigate the special meals or make my own arrangements. Personally I think it’s a good thing that they offer real food on this flight and not the same cheap breakfast food that I would probably already have been offered in the hotel and again...

    First Saver Availability

    Whatever How do you know these are not just the residual inventory that has been released before the cut off? Because these F Savers used to be released every day and now they aren’t. If they are being released just at less than T minus 330 then could you share what the new timeline is?

    First Saver Availability

    I can see that availability. TBH I don't search for flights that close to departure. I don't know whether those are residual F Saver flights from when they were loaded nearly a year ago or whether they are releasing F Savers at T minus five weeks. There seems to be nothing after December for MEL...

    First Saver Availability

    I have been posting this for some months now and repeatedly been ignored or told I was wrong. I guess other people are starting to notice now.

    You can leave it as long as you like so long as you don’t click to accept the changes.

    No - they have withdrawn F Saver from Australian routes.

    Oneworld Classic Flight Reward Discussion - The Definitive Thread

    Any schedule change at all will allow a free cancellation of an entire itinerary - even a 5 minute change. You will have the option to do it online. You don't need to plead your case even if you do have to phone up - it's just a computer says yes scenario. I have done it myself.

    And a cancellation fee for even more points - unless you are fortunate enough to have a schedule change later on that lets you cancel for free, It would be worth looking already for alternative flights home from Italy to get them added onto the first booking.

    I wish they (and many other airlines) would put the same effort and expense into their non alcoholic offerings.

    Qantas classic reward seat release

    Oh well, an opportunity to go somewhere more interesting instead perhaps. North America is just like Canberra but bigger.

    Prolly a lot of Darwo to Dili at two weeks notice in economy.

    Qantas partnership with BP

    Don't spend them all at once. For the mathematically minded, that means only 13,624 people took up this offer.

    Fair enough. I have never found useful J availability with Velocity.

    Bonuses for transferring Flybuys points to Velocity

    I think you would have difficulty transferring from one Flybuys account to two different Velocity accounts - and even if you could, you run the risk of having your Velocity accounts suspended for suspicious activity. Is it really worth the hassle for 5% of not very much?

    SQ Tips, Trips and Tales

    Sounds like a married segments issue. If you are doing it as an Advantage booking can you break the married sector logic by having a stopover of more than 24 hours in SIN?

    Citibank Luxury Transfer Service

    My $100 rebate took a few weeks to come through. Note that it can be used only once per calendar year.

    If you end in Launceston then they count the mileage back to Hobart (does it even reach double figures?) but it doesn’t count as a sector.

    Is that because it’s the only way they can fill business class seats that don’t recline?
