    I'm in the QF Lounge thread

    Long shot, but I don't suppose anyone's in the SYD F lounge tonight and able to guest my MIL? 😇 She'll be at the airport from about 6:30-9:00pm (QF25)

    Amex "I'm going to cancel my card" - bonus points given thread.

    "Just paid" meaning the fee has posted to your statement, or that you have actually paid that statement? Once you've paid the statement where your renewal fee has posted, you've really lost any leverage... This is interesting, the $1200pa annual fee variant? I think this has been notoriously...

    Strategy to obtain US Amex

    I don't remember exactly, but I believe the tracking for her card showed up as a banner under Card Management I added her via live chat and explained that the usual supp form didn't have an option for suppholders without an SSN. I provided her passport details via live chat

    How does Accor treat you as an Elite guest?

    Great pics, but I'm more impressed that AFF has raised the image limit from 10 per post!

    Qantas Green frequent flyer tier

    Gets you a Green Tier leaf (and buys certified renewable energy for your portion of grid usage) Yes it's an additional few c/kw surcharge Call Red Energy I don't think the green leaf kicks in until your next Red Energy bill posts points

    Strategy to obtain US Amex

    Yes it went fine - she's got several supps now I believe supp cards will start building credit files (a weird quirk of the US credit rating system) but the supp holder can't apply for a primary card without an existing Aus Amex (for GT), an ITIN, or an SSN

    Qantas First Class menus

    Plenty of other airlines have worked it out - even in Business class. Qantas could do it if they really wanted to, but unfortunately they have adopted a mediocre F&B standard (probably to cut costs more than anything else)

    Earning Qantas points from New Zealand

    Are you on iOS or Android? If you're on Android, create a throwaway Gmail account, sign into the Play Store, set your region to Australia and it should work. You can be signed into the Play Store using multiple Gmail accounts so this won't affect any of your NZ region apps. NFI about iOS sorry.

    JAL 777-300ER back on Sydney route

    Enjoy, go check out what's on offer at JAL's Salon upstairs - many seem to miss it as it's not very obviously signposted! (it's back near reception, past the showers) Please take lots of photos and share after your trip 😁

    JAL 777-300ER back on Sydney route

    Best contact them and confirm - but our 6 hour day use room was a true check-in anytime situation. Assuming a reasonably brisk walk: VF lobby to T3 check-in desks: 5-7 minutes Security: 2-3 minutes - go back through the JL first check-in lounge for dedicated security lane Immigration: 3-5...

    The Qantas Status Run Master Thread

    I thought the same but the classic award earn tables don't list the same Darwin to SE Asia ... so it would be distance based earn I think Classic award would still be great value over the J cash fare though (36.8k + taxes return)

    JAL 777-300ER back on Sydney route

    I'd agree with this. HND T3 has very little to do airside too. The CX lounge is not really worth a visit unless you feel like dan dan noodles, there's a few basic convenience stores, and I think one book shop. Even the duty free is quite limited. HND is much more interesting land side - far...
