    Pullman Sydney Airport - Mascot

    I reckon the 350 (or the 420 on Coward St if heading to T1) is likely to be cheaper, easier and more reliable than the shuttle. Timetable 350 timetable 420 timetable

    Basically impossible to book partner rewards flights at release

    There's a lengthy thread on here about Qantas IT gripes. You might need to call up to book. They should waive the booking fee given the website's falling over.

    AMEX rejection

    Well, NAB has just come to the party with an approval for a Qantas Signature card. Will hang onto it for at least a year though.

    Everyday Rewards Targeted Offers

    Sorry, but what's your theory about that? (I bought a $250 gift card and stored it in the EDR wallet this morning, and still had some left over from my previous purchase in November so am curious.) Mind you, I haven't shopped at Woolies since early December.

    Everyday Rewards Targeted Offers

    8000 points for 4x$65 spends. In for that one. 450 points for $15 in freezer spending.

    Welcome to AFF and thanks for posting!

    AMEX rejection

    I think I must still be on Amex's naughty list. Applied for the Qantas Ultimate card earlier this arvo and got the '5-10 day' email with no other requests for information. Ah well, next year... No hard enquiries on file since late 2024, but did have a fair bit of Citi activity last year...

    Qantas Green frequent flyer tier

    Last recycling pickup was this morning and the 'activity completed' has posted in the app. Now to wait for the final leaf to appear.

    Flybuys Targeted Bonus Promotions

    I got an email reminding me to complete week two a couple of hours ago.

    Flybuys Targeted Bonus Promotions

    As an aside, instore receipts are available on Coles Online too under 'Instore Purchases'. Fortunately no glitches re the date on the receipt (either printed or online) but no sign of the week two offer on the app.

    Everyday Rewards Targeted Offers

    I have week 2 of a 2x$60 spend at Flybuys for 2000 points while Woolworths has offered... nothing at all this week. For me then, the Flybuys offering is infinitely better...

    My first experience with China Eastern Airlines (MU)

    They tend to drop their prices a bit closer in (the cheap fares are currently available to the end of June).

    Earn up to 110 Qantas Status Credits on the ground

    The T&Cs for the promo say the base points will post up to 8 weeks after the end of the promo on 31 January (so still within the period to claim the SCs).

    Cathay co-brand credit card

    CX, while having okay market share, is not a big enough player to sustain its own card in the Australian market IMO. To add to what @levelnine has said, the best you could hope for is for AsiaMiles to remain a transfer partner (which currently they are for several banks' non-Qantas cards).

    Fees and taxes for CR domestic J vs Y?

    Even on MEL-SYD and vv, the fee is considerably higher. $80 vs $57 (slightly above the difference in the article linked to above).

    Qantas RM Williams Business Amenity Kits

    Between that and the return of paper bags at supermarkets, it all feels very back to the future! But yes, single use plastics, while convenient, are pretty dreadful for the environment so this is welcome. But I wonder if they should go down the VS route and stick amenities in a paper bag, or...

    Qatar started flying non-Qsuite aircraft to Adelaide

    This is ordinarily true, but Qatar offers a guarantee for Q Suites. It's only if you're on ticket on Qatar 157 stock (i.e. not VA stock), allowing for free rebooking up to 21 days either side. Hence, the OP is not entitled to a rebooking as a consequence of the aircraft change. QSuites are...

    AccorPlus China

    Ah - there's a 50 night cap with Accor China cards from using cards so perhaps the Amex nights counted towards that?

    AccorPlus China

    Was that the first card you bought, or had you bought other cards before to get 30 nights?
  20. MELso

    AccorPlus China

    On what basis? Did you buy the 30 night one and only get 20 nights (or was it because you hit the cap)?
