Most airlines are actually 2:1, SQ is the exception. If you want SQ points there are better ways to get them than Amex

Not really needed now afaik. I never book paid business class and this is the 3rd or 4th time they offered me the card.

Got offered the card last week. Can anyone provide feedback regarding how useful the RM is? What did they get you / couldnt get you?

ATO payments fall under business payments not personal

So what’s the cheapest way to pay the ATO now with Amex Plat Charge? sniip is 1.99% or so, and appears to be the cheapest? Or is there another work around?

Interesting, I called them for Coldplay tickets and they said it was cancelled

I noticed the plat concierge benefit isn’t on the website any more (tickets for shows, restaurants bookings etc) is gone. Amex also confirmed this over the phone (now available only to Centurion) Has there been an announcement? Or any communication about this?

Ok thanks. How did you find this fare? Looking at leaving FCO around 15 Oct and fly back around 1 July 2024

If I book this one, and on the way to Aus I dont take the MEL - BNE segment, will they cancel my return ticket to Europe? And will I have to fly from MEL to BNE just to fly back BNE to MEL?

Yes agree, it works out to be $2k USD = thats an upgrade from basic Marriott to WeHo Edition for the week... much better option

Flying from Sydney, tbh id rather go UA than NZ - prefer the direct flight

Hey all Im contemplating between UA PE or econ with emergency exit seat addition. I am KF Gold and don't particularly care for food on the plane. I hate lining up and waiting, but the PE ticket is about $2k USD more than economy. My question is UA PE worth the extra $2k? or just suck it up...

I did it in July. Booked it over the phone

In *theory* you could pay yourself (or related busines) then record it as refund and pay back the amount via bank transfer. The risk with paying yourself is 1. ATO 2. (not sure if mentioned) is GST, which you cant claim back so makes it pretty expensive I never tried the above or advocating it...

I have a few flights planned in business and first class with my recently turned 2 year old. She will have her own seat but what happens during take off and landing? Particularly when flying Emirates, Etihad and Singapore? Can I have her in my lap?

I’m KF gold and flying to the US spon Looking at flying UA or VA, how do I make sure I get the benefits (flying Y) and preferred sear selection etc? Thanks

Its been on my list for ages but I need to go to an international destination

Hey everyone, I need a 4-5 days short trip from Melbourne overseas leaving up to 11 Jan or so. Cant find any cheap flights anywhere, any ideas where I can go / find cheap or award flights? Thanks!

Disagree. There is still some great value to be had especially at the more aspirational resorts and if you are staying 5 nights. Using Sniip fee + this transfer, St Regis Maldives 5 nights would have cost $3k next year vs $11k USD rack rate. You need to search more, but value is still there

Marriott offering 50% bonus? Link?
