    Made any travel mistakes lately?

    Amex plat travel credit of $450. Thought it expired at the end of this month, logged in to use it and it expired yesterday. Amex have basically said too bad it can't be re instated even though I have previously been told that its possible to re instate or extend the credit.

    Traveling Business - directed to use Qantas Club at BNE Domestic

    The entrance was definitely policed today. There was a line going out the door with examination of BP and scanning it. The agent even asked the WP in front of me to produce his membership card

When I flew through about six months ago I checked out both lounges the offerings seemed about the same, if anything the KrisFlyer gold lounge had less people in it however the SilverKris...
