    Fraud on Velocity Frequent Flyer accounts

    I'd say this can be considered on-topic. How this works is they take your browser's request to fetch `virginaustralia.com.au` (this is DNS spoofing) and instead serve you an identical looking VA website clone and collect your credentials if you enter it there. Best to rely on the apps rather...

    Article: How I Make Qantas Reward Availability Work for Me

    Great article. One thing I personally love is the Finnair availability. They release availabilities 365 days and they're quite generous. Right now you'd have no problem finding 6 seats in J from Bangkok to Helsinki (though you'd arrive 10pm) or 3-4 seats from many other Asian cities. They're a...

    Woolworths gift card thread

    Supermarket busy bodies. I don't understand their motivations. Is it just a power trip? I can't imagine the higher-ups give a hoot. I purchased 2x $500 Vanilla MC the other day and the cashier recognised me as a repeat customer and didn't make any noise about it. I keep reading here that...

    Finnair’s Business Class AirLounge seat

    After all that back-and-forth I still ended up in the Finnair AirLounge seats for the return trip on SIN-SYD as the QF292 is one of the Finnair wet lease planes, I think. But it's only a ~8 hour flight so here's hoping it goes well. He'll be a seasoned traveler by then

    Finnair’s Business Class AirLounge seat

    Yep was able to grab two backwards facing seats. I know not everyone loves the new Finnair seats. If I was less mobile, I imagine it could be tricky sliding down into the seat. Being on the shorter side has its advantages when it comes to travel

    Finnair’s Business Class AirLounge seat

    Thanks Henrus, I wasn't aware they'd finished retrofitting all of them. I edited my post as I found better a redemption option

    Finnair’s Business Class AirLounge seat

    Last year I flew with my then 14 month old in the Finnair airlounge seat SIN-HEL, then HEL-SEA a couple of months later. It went really well, and he sat in the spacious seat with me the whole time. I've just booked another trip for us in March next year. He'll be 3 then, so I got him his own...

    Qantas Car Insurance

    For me, the monthly premium was only $35 more than my NRMA cover, so I signed up and collected the 40,000 Qantas points before cancelling it going back to NRMA. Having another vehicle for NRMA meant I kept the loyalty bonus so I was not penalised for leaving for a bit. $70 for 40,000 points -...

    Coles gift card offers

    Man that makes me rethink the whole purpose of it. Also, why 5x $250? The $100 cards provided the same bonus

    Coles gift card offers

    Same, bought 5x $100 cards yesterday, no bonus points yet. Will wait another day before ringing them

    What cheeses me off

    If your phone supports eSIM, which most new phones do now, I recommend going with that when possible. No waiting for physical SIM, and frees up the SIM slot for when you travel. I am on Boost eSIM at the moment. unfortunately, as is often the case in Australia, not many providers have embraced...

    What cheeses me off

    WCMO is Woolies and Coles. I've been doing mostly online orders from Woolies and Coles since the pandemic started. Recently (last few months) I've been noticing that the meat they pick for me is always 1-3 days from expiring. Makes it really annoying when you try to plan meals. Some times, If...

    The Qantas Newbie Questions Thread

    Just wondering if anyone knows whether the end date that's stated on the "membership year" section in the Qantas app is inclusive of the last day. I'm 5,000 points short of retaining Points Club and I'm flying on that day so the earn should get me over the line. Do points earned on that day...

    Made any travel mistakes lately?

    Curious how they got it open and even more curious how wedged that latch was! I've seen people solve similar issues using two iPhones and FaceTime to see the inside (slid one phone under the door) and then using a straightened coat hanger to dislodge it
