    Jetstar 'Interested in changing?' offer

    I got caught out by this. I thought the change was only for 2 hours so I accepted their $110 offer. It was only afterwards that I realized it was for the next day! I quickly got on chat and asked for my old flight back. Lucky they let me get it back because flights on my original travel date...

    Jetstar launch Sydney-Hamilton (NZ)

    Why won't Jetstar fly Wellington to SYD/MEL instead of experimenting on Hamilton? Jetstar already "competes" with Qantas on AKL/CHC/ZQN so I don't see how Wellington is any different

    Accor Plus Membership Discussion

    Signing up in a different country works fine for new memberships and expired memberships but I am yet to read about a successful case of renewing an existing membership from a different country.

    Qantas adds Brisbane-Manila but suspends Sydney-Shanghai flights

    SQ says they're adding a 5th daily flight to MNL. I wonder where they're getting the slot from.

    All Accor nights - something isn't adding up?

    There's a new auto claim function. When I used it I got the points after 3 hours and no need for an invoice.

    I want to go to SIN in December. When should I book for the best fares?

    Are the days of Points collecting over?

    I remember the days when I would ask family members to pay their bills through my credit card so I get the points. These days it's hardly even worth putting my own expenses through the credit card.
