    VA A330 Coast to Coast reliability

    My feeling is if there is a distinct qua;lity difference between product then the carriers should set a surcharge on the better product that can be refunded if they do the dirty on passengers and give them an inferior product over what they had booked.

    FlyBuys - Explore Gold offer

    Just got approved for the card with a 7K limit. I already have 55 SCs and 2 eligible sectors flown. Do I need to get another 80 SCs in the 3 months of Gold upgrade? Think I'll have 2 round trips SYD MEL over the next few months. Shouldn't be hard to add a 3rd trip in if required.

    What's your prediction on the Australian Dollar?

    I'm seeing this a great opportunity for investing overseas and buying some FOREX for holiday in Nov. It's interesting that the AUD is heading up even while the interest rate differentials are going in a way that would normally lead to the AUD to fall in relative terms.
