    New 100 Year anniversary Q Tags

    Jennifer must have been doing the rounds as I received the same email overnight. Also hoping they are the 100yr version. I did mention that I had lost in the request, not wear and tear.

    Coming home for Christmas

    Funnily enough I was planning on flying over to MSP next Jan to catch up with friends as I went to college in Minnesota as well. Let's hope that it is possible in the near future.

    Up to 150,000 points with Qantas Insurance (until 8 May 2020)

    For me that seems like a cheap way to buy points. If it is only $40 more expensive per month more, that's effectively $80 for 125k points with the top cover?

    Up to 150,000 points with Qantas Insurance (until 8 May 2020)

    I jumped on when it was 100k. Did the top cover for the 2 month minimum and then dropped back to what we actually need. Seems like the best way to do it.

    AFF Gathering #14 in CBR on 4 - 6 December 2020

    I am also Platinum for this now. Managed to score 2 nights at QT for $227 which seems really cheap. Looking forward to meeting everyone after being a lurker for so long.

    Long wait for refund for cancelled reward flights Qantas - a common experience?

    So, I did the same thing today and called then Plat Line. Was also told that it will likely be 45 days and it is with the correct department. Throw to 2 hrs later and all the points are back in account, strange how that works.

    Qantas New Partner - BP

    I just did a quick look on their site, it doesn't appear that there are that many around. I didn't realise the one in St Peters was one though.

    Qantas New Partner - BP

    I honestly could not tell you the last time I noticed a BP that wasn't an OTR. Surely there's only like 5 in the metro area.

    Qantas New Partner - BP

    I also tested today at my local OTR and they basically said the same thing in regards to other states and promos. Also said he had never even heard of the promotion.

    China - never a dull moment!

    Correct. I usually just give cash to one of our China based reps and she just sends it through. If I try and accept through mobile app I get the standard add CC but if I open through Windows it clears instantly.

    China - never a dull moment!

    I should also throw out Sir Elly's at The Peninsula as another alternative for a night cap along Bund area. Usually much quieter than Bar Rouge and a great view over to the Pudong Side
