I bought an 02 prepaid SIM over there last year, when you activate it tell them you want the international calling and you get so many free minutes worth of calls to Aus with each recharge. 100 free extra minutes with each 15gbp recharge according to the site: International - O2 Full info...

There's been some good bets on the Commonwealth games if anyone was keen to test the idea. Australia were paying 1.001 to win the netball last night on centrebet.

Thanks for the info, I'll get the flights booked and keep an eye out. I'm annoyed at the one way flights costing a lot more than return so might book the economy flights and keep an eye out.

Thanks mate, want to do one leg in business and this sounds like a much cheaper option for a few extra SC. Is it a random offer that comes up occassionally, to do with status or anything like that?

How much is the upgrade on each leg? I have some Europe flights (LHR-TXL) to book for next March.

I can't stand the JAL site, I have no idea how to get anything that doesn't go into/out of Japan and when I do the prices seem way higher than booking the two legs seperately. I'm looking at going either anywhere in Europe (Pref from the UK or Germany but not fussed) to Kuala Lumpur or Sydney...

We had a stoppover in KL on our way to London for a few days, the money you save on the flight to Malaysia you can spend on a very nice 5 Star hotel or huge 4-4.5 Star room/apartment. Traders hotel goes well ;)

Ive got the Sony in ear noise cancelling headphones, while the design is good at blocking some noice the active noice cancelling is great. I try to never fly without them. I always carry a spare triple a battery too, just in case. Ive had them for nearly two years now and havent had a problem...

Thanks Nick

After looking through all this I've got a question for whoever can help. I'm not the best at reading mileagemonkey so any help would be great. If I get a flight SYD-AUK with LAN Full flexible economy on the first leg and premium business on the return leg how many status points would I be...

I'm doing almost this exact same thing early next year before an international flight so I'm interested in everyones ideas

Very nice fare, for some dates its actually cheaper than economy

I usually do all my flying with Virgin but have recently had a bit of a thought and realised that I'm never really going to get anywhere with them. I've got a fair few flights booked over the next 7 months both domestically with QANTAS and in Europe with BA so I'm going to come fairly close to...

Well I was thinking I could get a cheap fair to Asia and use the flights here to get to Silver with around $1000, but I'm not sure I'm doing the calculations right. I also already have a priority pass which has been getting well and truely abused over the last few months :lol:

Well I'm just plain old base level ATM as well which also doesnt help, so as many as possible within reason of course. Sorry I'm a bit new to it all, have been flying a lot but sharing the airlines around, thought it was about time I got my act together and got something back for it. I'm...

Paid ticket I'm afriad, points are at an extremely low level ATM

I'm looking for something from the 27th of Dec - Jan 2nd for the cheapest way to get up some status points. Preferably departing BNE and returning to Canberra. I know Christmas isn't the best time to do this but the prices only seem slightly higher for the Asia run than other random dates I chose.

I was wondering that. Still good news, better than having the old empty shell of big screen projectors and seats shedding body parts.

Just for a followup on this, to upgrade the STN-KUL-MEL flights would cost me a little over $1700AUD. If I can pay a little more for a better/more comfortable flight, status points and maybe a day or two extra over there I figure I may as well go that way. Any suggestions would be great, I've...

Good news. I had a look through the booking process and the seating is 3-3-3 like the flights from MEL-KUL so I guess the old pieces of junk are gone! Also found a piece on their website that says the lie-flat seats will be on the London flights from June 2010.
