I used the 20% off europcar for NZ offer as well. Worked out pretty close to being the cheapest. Suggest to be able to hedge your bets, book your cheapest now and rebook if it becomes cheaper.

If you want to get to Univesrsal or San Diego, a company like GRayline will bus you there. I've done that a couple of times. May suit you. Full day trips offered.

I was going to suggest email the hotel directly but see you've done that already. Good outcome for you then. Had friends stay there and we're impressed with the hospitality. They got good treatment as golds. SL is a place where personal relationships count, so it's great you've been able to make...

Thanks folks. No availability to Sydney, but booking to BNe solves it!

Thinking of an end of year trip to Perth as I've never been. Looking at hotel options and being HH diamond, naturally looked here. I see varying reports of old world charm for this hotel but then read that the hotel is undergoing renovations. So I have some questions for this that have been...

Just wondering if the baggage for this 3 leg classic award itinerary will be checked through to BNE or do I collect it in Syd and recheck it? 20:00 Singapore 06:45 Melbourne Stops: 0 JQ8 Star Class Qantas/Partner 08:30 Fri Melbourne 09:55 Sydney Stops: 0 QF416 Business 11:05 Fri Sydney...

Confirm this is what needs to be done. But just get your VX booking ref from VA then call VX for seat assignment. Did this in 2012 with no hitches either. You would have automatically been seated in MCS. you can also call for the upgrade at t-x hours as well.

Always wondered if you earn points on the cash portion of p+p rates? Is the stay treated as a normal stay as well in terms registering as a "stay"?

Ahh, yes I did go through an affiliate link on EY's shopping mall straight into Hilton's site. First time I went through that. Earn 1 point per $ supposedly. I'll see what happens.

Ditto the roast beef rolls! We'll done Virgin. Pleasantly surprised. No more having to eat soggy sangas. Just downed one and sitting back and watching the tv. And it's Tuesday night.

Saw this in an email for a booking confirmation I made for BRis Hilton under the confirmation number and stay date. Just wondering what it means?

Just want to confirm what I am reading is correct for Koru access in Sydney and then Queenstown when on VA flights. On the VA site against ANZ lounge access it says VA gold is allowed 1 guest. Then under children policy it says all children under 12 in addition to guest. So if I have my child...

That is basically what I was getting at. If it costs $5000 for plat, for those that go out of their way to earn it, is it worth it? In your case, you're saying it's a side benefit, which is great. But for others considering making the push for it, or those that consider it is worth the...

Interested to know if anyone has put a $ value on their platinum or gold benefits? Be an interesting read to see what value has been extracted in terms of real $$. Ie. listing in chronological order, the benefits received over a membership year, including partners like Europcar and hilton.

Using lots and lots of Donkey miles and Shrek points? :) Seriously though, that's very kind of you Fiona. I got a complimentary Hilton Gold status once and that started this journey of mine. So it's nice to see you enticing another into the world of exec lounges, room upgrades, $10 buffet...

What I find interesting is that I'm guessing a lot of govt departments do not allow collection of ff points and thus status. I certainly know of f&fs that aren't able to. . So interesting that va know otherwise and are targeting this market. Unless it's govt employees traveling on private trips...

Row 1, sides as the other seats have someone recline in your face.

Yep, all related to USA sports. Go team USA curling! deets here: http://teamusa.hhonors.com it works here locally as well. I was surprised, as it was one of the few codes that does. And better than the usual aaa rate. Each code is specific to each sport you want to give kickbacks to. The...

Took this flight in early Jan. You'll have access to the QF intl business lounge won't you? Food is pretty miserly. They only put out small dishes that need to be filled. Maybe 8 pieces of sushi at a time, or a small bowl of stew that some hungry bloke would eat in one go. In flight you'll get...

Found this one: Gold medal 15% savings corporate code N2635179 in the Americas D000030070 Hilton and doubletree elsewhere Hope it helps.
