I can use it if it's still available.

Normally pretty low. It was less than $100 for TLV-BKK in J a few months ago.

100k points appeared in my account today (rather than the 150k).

My dad was having similiar problems. Clearing the cache seemed to work.

Had the same problems earlier this week. Took about 4 attempts before it worked. Not doing seat selection during the booking seemed to help.

I received my gold card yesterday.

I was matched from Agean Miles+Bonus gold.

Count me in for the dinner.

re: "oneworld" award (140K/280K/420K) Planning - The Definitive Thread I suspect you would need to join the QR scheme (of which I am not a member) to search for award availability.

re: "oneworld" award (140K/280K/420K) Planning - The Definitive Thread Booked a oneworld J award today. Prepared mostly online, then booked over the phone, with the booking fee waived. Fines/charges of $1100. CBR-SYD QF Y SYD-NRT JL J HND-HKG-ORD CX J ORD-DCA AA Y DCA-MIA-LIM AA Y/J LIM-SCL...

There was one subbed on CBR-SYD a couple of months ago. My travel companion asked on boarding 'Where is the rest of the plane?'

Refurbished are 2-2-2 angle flat. Non-refurbished are 2-3-2 recliners.

The refurbished 200 and 300 series have the angled flat regional product in a 2-2-2 configuration. The 200ERs are being refurbished with the (now superseded) long haul product in a 1-2-1 configuration. Go for 1-2-1 if you can.

The current 'frenzy' sales have David Jones offerring 20% off some items, including Crumpler bags. Crumpler is not often on sale, and I picked up a Dry Red 3 roll-on for $200 delivered. Westfield is also offerring 20% off Tumi products.

On an AUH-ATH leg, I was welcomed as a 'valued Etihad Guest Gold member', I clarified that I was Velocity Platinum. I was offerred first choice of meal before take off. No issues with lounge access.
