I have a family trip to Fiji booked for next February for 5 in economy. I had the options of 06:00 Fiji Air flight 737 Max 8, 08:35 Qantas flight 737 800 or 13:15 Fiji Air A350 900. I would obviously prefer the A350 but have chosen the Max 8 flight as we get the most Fiji time by taking it. So...

Whilst not a speeding fine, a month after returning from Europe, I had my credit card debited by Hertz for a fine (plus the obligatory admin fee) for travelling in a bus lane whilst driving through Bath during 2012. I asked for a image of the incident as I didn't believe I had done so as I was...

I would have loved to attend, but will be doing some very in-depth research at the Glenfiddich distillery that day or maybe it might be Aberlour distillery, I'll have to check the itinery. Anyway I look forward to the next one.

I would say they didn't need the FB card during the refund process as the original receipt would have referenced it?

Ahhh yes, the Air Pacific B747. Loved flying on those to Fiji.

Yep I agree. I have had one of these accounts for almost 10 yrs. It was an easy way of making sure your Qantas points kept ticking over and never expired. Ah well, will have to look at something else now as I already have a Easy Transaction account and might look to close that too.

I like the overall look of it except for the styling of Korean. It just looks like a generic font and rather bland. Colour scheme and tail logo look great.

The better half and I are travelling to Europe in the second half of this year. We are going Singapore J (A380) Sydney to London then F/Suites Paris to Sydney (which is an wedding anniversary surprise), so it will be interesting 1) to experience the difference J/F/Suites and 2) see her reaction...

Yep, I got done by Europcar too. I had an accident first day back at work in January 2024. Insurance company used Europcar for their replacement car company. I had the hire car for 2 months and when I returned it they said it was too dirty and would require professional cleaning and that I had...

I haven't flown on their A350's yet, as I take the 06:00 flight which is the 737 Max. I enjoyed the Max flight but would like to try the A350. The trouble is the A350 arrives in Nadi at 18:55 compared to 11:00 for the Max which means you lose 1 day of your holiday. Have flown the Virgin flight...

Thanks kpc. The BW More World MC has an annual fee of $270 as opposed to the Qantas World MC version with $320 annual fee (must have gone up). I was leaning towards the Qantas version, with 100,000 bonus qantas points, and the ongoing qantas earn is more attractive than the more rewards points...

kpc, how do you find the BW World MC? I am looking at applying for one for our upcoming Europe trip. My other card is the Amex Explorer.

Thanks @Scarlett, @Quickstatus and @TomVexille. I think I am starting to agree that even the 8:50 might be a tad early given SQ322's Monday morning arrival is due in 1.5hrs late.

Thanks all for the input. I think I will play it safe and book the later flight but check T&C's of Amex Travel first.

They will be separate tickets. SQ are J reward tickets (already booked) and El will be a cash one (will use the $400 Amex travel credit to purchase).

Hey fellow travellers, I have a question regarding transit time at Heathrow. We start our 2 month European adventure arriving into Heathrow (Singapore Airlines) at 05:55 and then will catch a flight to Dublin (Aer Lingus). I was wondering how much transit time we should allow between the...

This is interesting for the Star Alliance card as it has only been out in the market for 12 -18 months? Must need the extra funds for all the fines they got recently.

JohnK, unfortunately you can't salary sacrifice your unused LSL into superannuation. We have just gone through this scenario with an employee who wished to do exactly that. For a valid salary sacrifice agreement, the agreement has to be entered into prior to the income being earned, which in...

I was looking for flights from Sydney to Canada (Halifax) and then on to Ireland in J for May/June or August/September next year. Started looking 11 months out and continued for 3 months solid. Could not find a single seat either to Canada or to Ireland on the Velocity website. Also tried the...

Who's anxiety was she talking about - hers for having to leave the poor dog at home alone or the dog's for being left at home alone?
