JQ23 BNE - KIX Mon delayed 4 hours for operational reasons... Grudgingly going to go through Carins instead

Hmm maybe a 15% surcharge? I can get close to $75 but not quite. Though the Sola website says no discount on Public Holidays so it can't be a surcharge and a discount if that was the case... Human calculation error maybe then? haha.

Did you get drinks? Those are only 15% off.

I'm happy to recommend CityInn Hotel Taipei Station Branch III, not to be confused with Branch II. On the budget side in case you're looking for a bit more premium! Friendly staff. Reasonable prices for what you get, the rooms feel bigger than the size would suggest. Big bathroom too. Up the...

That is good value!

Signed up to the Smart Awards card in early October, have definitely spent over $1,500 each month and yet to get the 12,500 points for any months still. I can see my standard earn points going into my account and got the 20k bonus from Qantas. All pretty standard payments, no big bills paid or...

Head and shoulders also.

Decided to leave with SA, should be fine! It mentions Gold until December 9th so that probably answers my question of what would have happened with AeroPlan 50k :)

My last day to choose a partner Airline is tomorrow and for the moment I've gone with Singapore Airlines because it felt like it made most sense with my situation/plan, but sounds like AeroPlan 50k might be just as good, if not better? I'm a little confused by the different setups. I applied...

VA471 PER-BNE Sunday Choices were so long I couldn't quite grab it all down, but I went with the Tuscan chicken with some sides, I thought it was quite nice! The other option I believe was roast vegetables with rice and a chorizo added if desired. Felt like a lot of pesto for the tiny bit of...

Anyone still waiting? My code is . Edit: Just an entry for me!

You just do a test booking and turn the toggle on. It will sort of tell you if it's available for that booking. Otherwise a quick test is if it shows "Free" or something low like $20, instead of the usual night cost. If it doesn't show those, then it's not available.

Finally convinced myself to buy it and also got the error!

Well our last block of time in Tokyo was 18m2 at the Ibis Styles Ginza East, so it'll still be an upgrade! haha. Plus as you mentioned, good location for transport. Sadly despite the suite they have, you're unable to use the SNU there.

No to that date either sadly!

Sadly only the suites at the Osaka Swissotel and Tokyo Pullman, plus a bunch of rural Grand Mercures are available to upgrade at in Japan. I probably wouldn't have hesitated if it was available at the suite at Mercure Hibiya! I think at the time, the Pullman in Tokyo just looked like a nice...
