SQ called me back this morning. Was able to change the dates and flight destiantion though dates I wanted that were available on Sunday were not available today. Sadly i had to forfeit 132.500 points being the difference between points used for original booking.

NoName my experince is that I was able to check in for my midday flight from Sydney to Singapore travelling in R (redemption booking) in October 2017 before check in closed for the earlier flight at 8.00am. Arrived at the check in counter at around 7.30am or so and showed my R booking and asked...

By way of update I am now in position to change the booking (had to wait as I was dignosed with gallstones and am having the gallbladder out on 1 May). We have decided to shorten trip to around 3 weeks leaving end of May and change the trip to travel to Cebu. Had checked out that there was...

Doctore1003 thanks for that. I will give the call centre a ring. Fingers crossed there is availability! Will report back how I go.

Thanks for response - I have more points expiring at end of May so would have liked to booked redemption flight. Four weeks ago there were J redemptions (on Singapore website) with LOT or Air India for 61,500 points each. They have gone now sadly. I have aslo searched United Airlines Mileage...

My situation is that last June had booked a redemption booking in J from Brisbane to New Delhi on 16 May 2024 for myself and wife. We had booked a Silver Seas cruise that was departing Mumbai on 23 May 2024 to Athens. Silver Seas only cancelled the cruise last Thursday (frustrating as other...

Would you recommend the Pullman if you have two nights in Delhi? We arrive at 8.00pm on a Thursday night on a Singapore Airlines flight and then leave on the Saturday for a trip for a few days to Agra and Jaipur. One of the positives in doing so is that it close to the airport and as our flight...

Hossein much appreciated - did not know about the United option to search.

Daft thanks for that. I went on the SQ website and tried some J redemption bookings to Europe. Did not know until now there is an option for Star Alliance bookings or other airlines. Tried both features. There is J availability on Air India to Frankfurt and Amsterdam on 24 May 2024 and they are...

My wife and I have a cruise booked Mumbai to Athens departing 23 May 2024. We booked J redemption from Brisbane to Delhi arriving 18 May 2024 so we can have a week in India before the cruise. The points we used were coming up for expiry. Our return flight is a J redemption from Frankfurt to...

My Accor Plus card expires tomorrow and I renewed today. I was Platinum but thought I not did not requalify as at end of 2022 to maintain Platinum. My nights stayed was 33 with the Fast Track last year so had expected to be Gold. After I renewed this morning I checked the app on the phone and...

I thought the same about SS but the cruise we booked on Silver Moon is 17 nights (Passage to India) for May 2024 and they have some great specials until 31 May 2023. Cost for a Superior Balcony is around $8800 each if you pay in full by 31 May. If i can find someone who is a SS Member i get a...

Pushka many thanks for your reports and photos. We have felt like we were with you the whole way. You inspired us to the extent that we started looking at similar cruises and today we booked a Passage to India cruise on Silverseas departing Mumbai 23 May 2024. Silverseas have some great deals...

China Airlines has great PE which we exeperienced Brisbane to Vancouver in 2019. The return flight was in J and the cost for the flights was around $2950 return The seats were 7 across on a 350. Had a full day stopover in Tapei both ways which we enjoyed. Friends did Brisbane to Europe in PE for...

I stayed at the Hilton Surfers Paradise for one night on Monday 29 March 2023 for my status stay and the room had a stocked mini bar.
