    Virgin Flyer Card - now 75k introductory points

    Check the T&C but I believe everything vaguely govt related is excluded (ie including Australia Post)

    Something big is coming! (1st May)

    See my FOMO (or, to be honest forgetting!) saw me empty our accounts yesterday! I'll likely do another sweep mid month & EOM :-)

    Something big is coming! (1st May)

    There's been maybe a couple slightly better than 15% (maybe 18% once but involving more hoops to jump through?), but 15% is what I generally hold out for. It's a good offer & regular enough I rely on it & that's how I value the points conversion.

    Flybuys General Promotions

    Out of interest, which wine does she like? I often struggle as the closest store to me seems to have limited stock.

    Flybuys Targeted Bonus Promotions

    I *may have* received twice what I expected earlier this month also. It was one of those 3 day offers and a second offer dropped for the following 3 days just before I shopped using the first one. I assumed someone coded the dates incorrectly for the second offer & I got both? Regardless...

    After D-Day, Whats your new strategy?

    My AMEX currency is KrisFlyer. Explorer is only dropping 33%, not 50%- to 1 KF mile per $ spend. That’s good enough value for a card that’s essentially free because of the travel credit, to say nothing of the offers. We’ll keep one explorer with a supp and push spend through that while I sit...

    Paris Suites!

    Firmly in the ‘I love Paris’ camp, but keen to hear where you eat in Singapore. We have 22 hrs there on the way to London in July so looking for lunch between TPR trips (like you on the way home I’m guessing!)

    Is it worth flying Emirates F for 3 hours?

    We found a $900 sale fare in F on the AKL-MEL route a couple of years ago. Loved it, we were totally spoilt too. I had a shower simply because I could! We were soooo disappointed the flight landed 30 minutes early!

    SQ Tips, Trips and Tales

    We flew to Europe in J last year (bulk head seat J, so heaps of space) and came home in F on 777 (had booked suites, but there was a plane change months out) First was still significantly better- food, service, sleep (& pyjamas!), we laugh about it ‘ruining J’ for us. We haven’t flown suites...

    Alcohol confiscated at Bangkok Airport in transit - isn't it a scam?

    You might be able to purchase online in advance to get around this? In my experience, Changi was significantly cheaper than Melbourne

    Blanket Bay... another NZ stunning lodge

    I am also planning another NZ trip after reading this! Thanks for taking the time to write it. The pics are sensational. Was two nights enough? (Please say yes because my budget is unlikely to extend to 3!)

    SQ Tips, Trips and Tales

    Whereas I, had to scroll back through the pics to see the watch, I hadn't noticed! I asked for the Teddies (after learning about the here) to which the response was 'how many would you like?'
