    VA through checking bags to SQ on separate bookings?

    My colleague has a CBR-BNE flight with VA connecting to a separately booked SQ itinerary departing from BNE International. When checking in luggage at CBR if asked will the VA agent check the bags onto SQ?

    Double Status Credits promotion (Book by 27/2/24, travel 28/2/24-14/2/25)

    I could not confirm and book by my October USA trip during the recent DSC. The itin pricing through QF promotion was $3,200. Booked the same 4 flights today through AA for $1,487. QF price is now >$3,200. Kind of a DSC getting SC for half the price.

    Double Status Credits promotion (Book by 27/2/24, travel 28/2/24-14/2/25)

    Usually I book a BCI-LRE flex fare during the DSC and use it for as the basis for a alternate itin. The BCI_LRE fares are being returned in my searches. Is there an alternate recommended flex fare?

    Flying in/out of The Stans

    My friend is joining a ground tour through The Stans in May 2024. It's a new area for me offering some opinions on flights. What would be the best way in terms of price to get from BKK into FRU 26 May and TAS to DXB 20 Jun? (I'm thinking BKK-Amalty then a more local airline FRU/TAS.)

    Specific Price Monitoring

    As it doesn't seem to be a thing I pushed ahead with developing my own I have a Amadeus developer API so I'm working from this API Connect to Amadeus travel APIs | Amadeus for Developers and specifically /shopping/hotel-offers I've got the 8 digit IDs for the hotel I'm looking for.

    Specific Price Monitoring

    Is there an online comparison site that will give an update when a hotel price drops? I have a specific Las Vegas hotel for a specific set of dates that I want to book for September this year.

    The FR24 appreciation thread

    Using the playback on FR24 you can see the two different sources of data that FR24 are using. One is ADS-B and one is Australian Radar, both having different ICAO addresses. My guess is that there has been an equipment swap from one aircraft to the other to cover an unserviceability. Codes and...

    How to follow-up for missing 7-11 bonus points

    Where do I start with following up for some bonus points due from 7-11 purchases last month? The qualifying purchase had come within 24 hours. There was a 7-11 sign-on bonus that posted at the same time but the 500 pts for in-store purchase didn't post. Where can I make a low effort...

    Hotel Management penny pinching with aircon motion sensors

    I recall a household aircon system that we had in Townsville. It had a mode designed to lower consumption during the night as a sleeping body can tolerate a higher room temperature. Then a few years later I came across this in a Milan hotel, room was great before going to bed but we were all...
