I have followed the LE advertising for a long time now and we booked our first adventure earlier this year. We had a week in the Maldives via one of their all inclusive promotions followed by 3 nights in Singapore on the return trip. It was seamless, everything was organised as we had been...

Calgary Stampede in Calgary, Canada. closer to home - the wildflower season of West Australia - especially the Coral Coast & Pilbara as well as later around the Stirling Ranges in the Great Southern. Spectacular.

I have done a similar thing. I re-purposed a Royal Brunei Amenities Pack given to me by a friend. It's about the size of a pencil case but a little fatter, so fits chargers for phone, camera, tablet, kindle as well as an international adaptor and a Kinchrome pocket power bank and some earbuds...

Have you thought of Kota Kinabalu? Borneo has lots to offer.

Looking at booking Perth - Paris in August, 2020 with an open jaw return from Venice to Perth. Hoping to do the bucket list travel by train from Paris - Lyon - Switzerland - Australia (Salzburg on the bucket list) - Italy and then a short Med cruise from Venice to Greek Isles and/or Croatia...

Tonight after a lot of rain, snow on the Stirling Ranges (Gt Southern of WA) and very cold. Glorious sunset over the Gordon River.

Mine appeared on the beginning of the next statement cycle. It was listed as a "Westpac Credit Reward" and listed the firm purchased through.

Thanks moa999 for the review. We're starting to feel a little better about the flight now. Some great tips - thanks everyone!

We are flying Scootbiz Perth to Singapore for a quick 5 day Xmas lights visit on 24 Dec. As we don't have much experience using LCC, what should I expect. We are normally QFF flyers so were interested in anyone else's experiences with Scoot. Thanks in advance for your feedback.:confused:

Thank you everyone for your comments. Yes, I found the IHG Dining Rewards not a patch on the Priority Privilege that it replaced. We used to get value with the 50% dining discount (for 2) and the 2-for-1 nights at Crowne Plaza/Holiday Inn/IHG properties along with the other freebies. However...

After joining AFF in 2010, I have finally summoned the courage to make an initial post. I have used the various posts for many great ideas on best seating on long flights, info on different airports when you have a 3 hour layover between flights etc. but thought I should get rid of the line on...
