    Classic Reward flight availability to Santiago

    Qantas can often be few and far between but I was looking a last month and thought I saw numerous seats on LATAM on their 789 out of Melbourne etc, which i would probably choose over a clunky old QF 747

    Getting an American Express Platinum Edge and another Amex card

    Yeah I would definitely get the card with the higher amount of bonus points first... i would have gone for the Explorer card earlier when it had the 100k points bonus but I had to wait till December to be 18 months from having shut a direct Amex card down... So now do i go for the 50k-60k...
