    Buying Velocity points

    Seems I miscalculated - a top up of 140k KF Miles with SQ would have been charged in USD, around AU$8,800 VFF equivalent 220k is just AU$3,346 in the current promotion. No brainer really.

    Missing points from stay

    I had a stay in Sydney at the end of October, on which I received my bonus amenity points (before arrival no less), but nothing else since. Welcome drinks, upgraded early, good recovery for some issues with the room aircon... Scarily, a couple of days after the stay I received an email from the...

    Buying Velocity points

    Needing 140k KF for an SQ first reward, buying 220k Velocity is significantly (over $2,000) cheaper currently than topping up directly with SQ. Yes, i know there's other options, this would be simple and quick.

    Etiquette Question

    Depending on the overhead locker design, there's often a bit to grasp and pull up to help get in and out of the seat. I use this often and despite my 100+kg and the supposed 30kg or less carry on capacity, I've not bought the roof down yet!!
