    How does Accor treat you as an Elite guest?

    Property: Pullman G Bangkok Status: Platinum VIP treatment: I guess so. We, a party of 4, turned up on a Saturday night at their popular rooftop wine bar/restaurant without a reservation and were informed that we couldn't get in as they were fully booked. I then tried my luck and asked if...

    It's so tempting to apply for bonus points. I currently have Platinum (back in Mar'16) and Edge (looong time ago). Should I take a chance?

    Pro rata $$ refund - my experience with Velocity Plat / Plat Charge

    So you will waste $400 on the Platinum card and spend $395 for the Explorer? Do you get to keep 120,000 sign up points?

    SQ F/Suites JFK-SIN A380-800 Rewards tickets

    Yeah, that's how I thought :) Who am i saving my points for if not for myself to enjoy? How much better non-suite F comparing to J? I don't think I'll bother upgrade my SIN-MEL on J to F flying 77W.

    Did I stuff up? - Reward Booking

    Give SQ a call and see what they can do for you. You're right, you should have booked SYD-SIN-LGK online in J and then call SQ to upgrade SYD-SIN to F. I've recently booked my MEL-SIN-BKK that way.

    I've just followed you and got myself 3C. If 3D is empty, do you get 3D made up as a one big bed?

    SQ F/Suites JFK-SIN A380-800 Rewards tickets

    Reading all this made me take a plunge. Yesterday I put extra 17,000 miles into my MEL-SIN-BKK trip this Friday night to get a suite instead of being in J considering it's going to be on A380 from MEL to SIN. It's not ideal as there's no F between SIN and BKK and MEL - SIN being an overnight...

    Westpac KrisFlyer Platinum Card - Should I stay or should I go...

    It depends on currency charged to your PayPal account. I have some in AUD and some in other currencies for online purchase from overseas. However, when paying by PayPal, you can choose to pay in AUD if you want.

    Best place to exchange AUD to EUR (Singapore? Bangkok? Abu Dhabi? Paris?)

    I don't think I like to carry $1,000 but if I did, where should I exchange the money?

    Best place to exchange AUD to EUR (Singapore? Bangkok? Abu Dhabi? Paris?)

    Hi, Not sure if it has been discussed any where here. I am travelling to France in a couple of weeks and thinking I might need some EUR. I have both Citibank Plus and 28 Degrees card and don't want to carry a lot of cash if possible. I don't mind using my credit cards really. I'm flying out...

    New Amex statement credits

    I believe there's a difference between $50 credit for Platinum card holder and the $150 credit offer. I remember trying to get the $50 credit one and a wine broker from Langtons rang and told me I had to place an order with him over the phone or email and he would arrange the $50 off for me...

    New Amex statement credits

    If I had 2 cards with Langton's offer on both, could I use both cards and get credit back on both cards?

    SQ Upgrade

    I think at the moment it is only for upgrade from economy to premium economy. This website suggested that you'd better check the cost of premium economy ticket to see the difference in the price you pay for your economy ticket as guidelines.

    Quickest Time from International Gate to Taxi Departure?

    From my memory, I travelled on J to Melbourne with Royal Brunei on 13/6. The plane landed around 5:45 and parked at probably the furthest gate. I did a quick stop at a duty free, went to e-passport thing, picked up my luggage, and went through without showing Express pass. A few minutes later on...
