Does anyone know if you can use multiple David jones gift cards in store to purchase an item? I assume it’s one for online but if an item is say, $1000, can I use 10x $100 in store similar to what I’d do in JB Hi-Fi?

Apologise if this isn’t the correct thread to ask this question. Heading to Europe, Middle East and India in June/July this year. Flying out of Sydney via Singapore airlines and wondering if the 777 is the ‘new’ first class or still the old product? Can’t seem to find much information online but...

I completed my one stay in Melbourne over the weekend and got a popup message on the Hilton Honors website yesterday with a ‘great news! You’re keeping your diamond status in 2023’. Worked out well as I’ll be in Europe and the Middle East in June and July so will be nice to spend a few nights in...

I got the email for the extension and have booked a night in Melbourne for the Avalon Airshow this week. Got lucky with diamond as it was earned as a perk with velocity platinum I believe in 2019. At least I’ll be able to take further advantage of diamond for a few stays in June and July as I...

Thought I’d share a few more that I got around to editing. All done on an iPad Pro as I no longer own a desktop or laptop and find the iPad much easier to travel with. Planning the next trip to Thailand and maybe to Sri Lanka. Definitely plan on revisiting India possibly next year.

In street photography, as far as I’m concerned if the people are in public then they’re fair game. The kids in the first pic were more than happy to have their pic taken. The kid in the second pic stopped me at banganga for a ‘selfy’ even though he didn’t have a phone so I took one with my phone...

Thanks mate. Yes same username on instagram though I’m not so active on it. Unfortunately my day job keeps me from spending time on my hobbies. Combining travel with photography is the best combination!

This thread has sadly been neglected. Thought I’d add a few pics from a trip I just returned from to India. I will be returning hopefully some time next year. Had an absolute amazing time! A street photographers paradise.

I’ve been reimbursed my points so at least Hilton follow up on their complains.

I’m currently a Hilton diamond member and just returned from a quick 2 week trip to India. Spent one night at Hilton Mumbai airport as flight with Singapore airlines arrives late evening. Perfect service. Spent a couple of nights at Taj Mahal palace after that. I had 3 nights in Delhi where I...

Yep neither have I. I also maxed out the limit of ultimate cards across two accounts on this weeks promo but both accounts have been paid out incorrect amount of points and on top of that some of my normal product promos haven’t earned points where I typically receive them the day after. Seems...

I assume it’s targeted but I received an offer on one account for 1000 points on a $100 Visa card or 2000 points on a $200 Visa card to a maximum of 10,000 points if purchased at Kmart. Don’t often get Kmart promos especially relating to gift cards. I’m going to assume that these cards have an...

Sorry mate forgot to reply. Yes I have secured a seat in suites to Delhi for early October that was not waitlisted. The app shows as in flight meal available from 20th September but honestly not too fussed about food. I’ve only ever flown business with SG back to South Africa and food was pretty...

Wow. I’ve had a look at my dates in October and can seem to find plenty availability SYD - DEL but the first leg is on a 777. Non waitlist seems to be 213k miles or 98k on the SIN - DEL.

Thanks for the reply. I’m looking at Singapore to Delhi and on the dates I’ve looked there seems to be plenty of availability for F reward and it’s not waitlist either unless I’m not understanding it correctly.

Morning all, I’m planning a trip to India and have amassed quite a few velocity points. I’m also Velocity platinum. I’m considering converting to KrisFlyer now that the conversion program has resumed. I’d like to redeem for first class tickets seeing as there seems to be plenty of availability...

Copped an email yesterday stating that my platinum status has been extended until 31 Jul 23! Wasn’t expecting it to be extended again and I’m pretty sure I first qualified for platinum back in 13 Nov 19. I’ve since not earned any credits on Virgin planes due to covid but have flown quite a bit...

Has the ability to book business class SG tickets with velocity been reinstated? I’m planning to book SYD to Delhi but remember reading that it needs to be done via the call centre. I can see availabilities on the velocity site but haven’t yet made a booking. Surprised to see quite a bit of...

Was it these cards that had a security flaw that left some people without funds on the cards after activating them? Wouldn’t mind taking advantage of this offer and buying a few to give to someone as a gift but I’d be awfully embarrassed to find that they don’t work when it comes time to spend them.

Thanks for the comments. I can post some more when I get around to it. On the same trip I also spend some time in the UAE and Jordan. Had a great time in Jordan as well but it was bloody cold!
