    Australian state border restrictions

    I don't think we ever did restrictions or border closures on rates per 100,000 people. It's always been total number of cases. In the case of WA it's anything >1, shut the border.

    In Vic - I have a work trip scheduled for 12-13 Aug to SA - been postponed 3 times before. What are the chances the border will reopen by then? (I'm thinking not great again..)

    How many credit cards to apply for in a year?

    Those who apply and cancel cards on a regular basis, I'm assuming you don't have a lot of regular automatic payments going on the cards? We replaced cards mid-last year and I'm still chasing up the automatic payments that I'd forgotten that went on the card at various times! I wouldn't want to...

    Hello!

    Hi - I just discovered this site recently and joined up. Been a frequent flyer for work for a few years - just domestic flights between Sydney, Melbourne and Perth mainly. I'm gold status with Virgin but my work doesn't allow employees to use their frequent flyer points accumulated from work...
