Thanks Pushka - the Shipmate is great and I love all the port data. I'm just about to start the loading of excursions. The offline deckmaps - what is that please? (I cant find it in the Apps store)

And it saves the language problems!! I had a dreadful dreadful spasmodic cough in France last year which my supply of medications didn't touch. So if you could imagine the patient (me) cough cough coughing & dry retching with a wizened little old French doctor (with NO English) and trying to...

Thanks for this codash1099. The Boomer policy is with Allianz not Apia (who use Alliance) - I presume they there is a difference?? Although some of the reviews of Alianz are not very happy. Anyway, I have since read through the PDS properly and the policy does seem to cover a limited return...

We have been having a quiet stress as we are doing a couple of cruises in the USA/Canada this year. We hadn't been able to find a company to cover a previous cardiac condition. Anyway, saw in the paper today that a new company has just started up. Covers you up to the age of 80, and covers...

Interesting to compare Qantas' (and other airlines probably) compensation to cruise lines where you book a category of cabin plus specific cabin number - just the same, but it really is an extended period in that cabin. Earlier this year we were on a very popular/highly booked Oceania cruise...

I just booked an evening's parking in Brisbane....... cost $6. (Would have been more helpful to me in Hobart though)

The Qantas website still seems not to elaborate on the double points, but the Australian yesterday (23 September) had an article which included this: "The Qantas fares must be booked by November 19 and are good for flights between March 1 and September 30 next year. They start at $1724 return...

Many thanks - when I looked again I had taken 19A/B (not 16) but have now grabbed the 13A & 13B. Looks great and those seats were really my initial preference but I was just feeling a little wary. :cool:

Just a query about the mini cabin (rows 11-13) - we have row 13 available to us - is that preferable to say row 16ish? I was just a bit concerned about the toilets etc there in terms of people milling and any "odours" many thanks - appreciate your thoughts

Does Epicure still offer the sign up bonus of 2000 pts plus 4th case of 8000 pts? I was looking to take advantage of the 1/2 price sign-up with Taittinger, but couldn't find mention of it anywhere. Sorry if I have missed it on an earlier post many thanks

As a retiree I was very happy to be approved for the bog standard card - CC companies often don't 'get' superannuation as an income. I was referred for 24 hours but no further contact until I received the approval email. However, ANZ didn't seem to want believe that we didn't have a mortgage...

The Europe section at least is on fares 1st Feb 2014 to 31st August 2014. Other ports dates vary a bit from this. There seem to be quite reasonable savings here. I paid $7777 for HBA-MEL-LHR, and returning CDG-LHR-MEL-HBA whereas same flights in Oct/Nov this year are just under $10,000. I...

re: Has anyone had success with the call-up method for "Marginal" xASA's? Thanks AFFers! I had no confidence at all but found the phone call very straight forward. Todd the CSR knew exactly what I was wanted when I said an ASA and that the flights were available online as classic awards...

Just bought todays offerings by Epicure - 2 six packs of Flametree Chardonnay @$216 total with 2500 bonus points, and 2 six packs of Saltram Mamre Brook Shiraz 2010 @$300 total with 2500 bonus points. The Flametree is rated by Halliday as a 96 pointer, and the 2008 Saltram Mamre Brook was a...

I agree so much!!!! Recently came back Singapore to Melbourne overnight in a middle seat(!!) with a woman fully reclined all night in front of me and a mother with babe behind - so I couldn't recline. The FAs don't really attend to the middle seat passengers and anyway they are frantically...

The 2007 Seppelt Moyston is $141.89 at Cracka (seems to be the only place on the web) including delivery, so the Epicure price/points are pretty nice

I have an app on the iphone called Stocard in which I have scanned many cards including the EDR card. I can just open it and scan the barcode from there. I also have those nuisance cards like chemist cards etc that I certainly don't want to carry around stored there. I have attached a partial...

Thanks Dalek - I must have missed the code earlier. And it still works - just ordered a $59 bottle of bubbles!

Does anyone have the code to bring joining down to $59 please? Appreciated
