Hi all, I've booked a double room for myself at an IHG Intercontinental and I have breakfast included in the rate. Do you know if it's possible to have a friend who's not a guest at the hotel join for the buffet breakfast? I ask because the actual rate of the room with breakfast is...

Just closed my UK revolut account and I'm looking to open an Australian one (frustratingly there's no option to switch your default country). Does anyone have a referral link so we can both pocket a few dollars rather than me just doing the standard sign up? TIA.

Hi all, Just wondering if I need to have my breakfast before I head to the airport. Due to the forthcoming pilot's strike in WA Qantas have cancelled my flight on 16th February. Thankfully, because I have purchased a bundle of rights rather than a ticket Qantas have transferred me onto a...

Hi all, I've just been knocked back for the AMEX platinum charge card based on a credit inquiry and having recently received a copy of my credit history I believe the decision is incorrect and would like them to review it. The letter that AMEX sent out informing me of my rejection only had a...

Hi All, Flying out of LHR terminal 2 on SQ317 in J in a few days. Lounge options are Air Canada, United & Singapore Airlines. Much of a muchness or does anyone here rate one sufficiently more than the other? Grateful for your thoughts!

Anyone else having difficulty logging into Privilege Club? For the past 3 days whenever I try to login via the link to my google account I keep getting the message: "we are facing technical issues. Please try after some time." I think I've given them enough time now so I'm just trying to find...

Hi all, I just had a very pleasant surprise using my Velocity points. I've been looking to book rewards tickets to and from Europe for Christmas and yet again found myself unable to utilize my 400,000 Qantas pesos. 😂 Having seen the light and fled the QFF programme over a year ago I have now...

Hi all, as reported by OMAAT the new Kimpton secret password is "no shade". Just in time for my stay at Kimpton Fitzroy next month: "I find it quite warm in London this time of year; it's a shame there's no shade nearby". :D https://onemileatatime.com/deals/kimpton-social-password/

Hi all, First time looking for awards seats using Velocity points and I'm wondering if I'm calculating my points redemptions wrong or whether there's some fine print in the T&C of the programe that I'm missing that can explain the difference. Planning to book an award seat back on QR from PER...

I'm currently looking at flights to Dhaka and the best option price wise gets me in at 05:05 in the morning. Planning to stay at the Intercontinental Dhaka and estimate that I would reach there around 06:30 -07:30. I'm Diamond + Ambassador and am entitled to early check-in depending on...

Hi all, With the effective withdrawal of obtaining Qatar premium cabin seats via QFF I thought I would be in pole position for once to snag a Christmas award seat from Australia to Europe next year using Avios but I'm beginning to get a sneaking suspicion that Qatar aren't going to make it that...

Hi all, Trying to wrap my head around using the Ambassador Complimentary Weekend Night. Looking to book myself a stay in Edinburgh for 3 nights: Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. I select the Ambassador Complimentary Weekend Night and see some properties have this available. When I go through...

Hi all, I was one of the lucky ones who managed to swoop in on the Diamond status for nothing which I've managed to extend for another year by then signing up the Ambassador programme. My first stay is going to be at the Kimpton Fitzroy London beginning December and I'm just trying to get my...

Hi all, I've booked a QF classic rewards flight on EK traveling in F from SIN to CDG that departs at 21:00 in a few weeks time. I was unable to find any rewards seats from PER to SIN so I had to do a separate cash fare booking for this on QF in Y. This arrives into SIN at 16:45. I've got a...

I haven't seen a thread on this development yet. In the very early stages so details are understandably vague, but the possibility of a co-branded payment card between Qatar/Visa that would allow you to earn Avios here in Australia could be a considerable threat to Qantas FF dominance. I will...

Hi all, I'm flying PER-MEL on QF772 at 06:05 on 10th September paid Y and I am unable to link my Qantas complimentary lounge pass. When I click 'link invitation' I am taken to the Qantas Club homepage (https://www.qantas.com/au/en/frequent-flyer/the-qantas-club.html) and the invitation fails...

Hi all, Currently trying to find some Classic Reward flights back to Europe in late November. I've been searching using the Qantas multi-tool as per the example below, and as you can see there appears to be very good availability from Jakarta to Dublin for the month of November (screenshot 1)...

Hi all, I've had a bit of a misfortune while travelling (who hasn't?) with Qatar Airways recently from CDG -SIN via DOH J class on 29/06. Upon trying to check in online on 28/06 I was informed that my initial flight scheduled to depart DOH for SIN on 29/06 @19:45 had been changed to a...

I've recently booked a MEL-PER business class ticket using Avios due to it being much better value than using my QFF points. My flight therefore is registered under my Executive Club account. As Qantas is also a Oneworld member is there any way to reassign this awards booking from my Avios...

Hi all, Booked a Classic Rewards Flight PER -DXB on EK421 earlier this month. However, if I look to book it as a cash fare this Emirates flight is displayed as QF8421. I can't remember ever seeing this issue before - where something booked with points is not a codeshare but if booked with...
