    QF rewards (lack of availability), SING-MEL Oct 23

    I know the pain. 1.3M points, bronze. May as well be Waltons gift vouchers for all the things I can book with them. Trying to get to Japan for our belated honeymoon, nothing except Jetstar budget flights for basically the whole calendar. Had we been able to do it before covid, JAL first class...

    Amex just changed the design of its QBR card today

    Yeah I noticed that too when I went to use Apple Pay the other day. Can't say I'm a fan of it.

    Good resource to understand the jargon and system more?

    So I've got a QBR Amex that I've had since not long before covid and amassed over 1.1 million points thus far. God only knows when I'll be able to use them given my inability to take a holiday and the general state of flying right now, so I want to try and garner a better understanding of...

    Qantas Business Money

    I've been using Airwallex for a while now and it's great. Didn't realize the Qantas one was effectively a rebranded version. Might look into seeing what the difference would be if I swapped over. Having a Japanese bank account has been a god send for dealing with importing products from there.

    Amex Business Cards as a Sole Trader

    I've had the QBR card for about 2 years now and it's worked well for us. The accessline service for paying suppliers who don't take it is good. I was able to get it despite only being a PTY LTD company for a few months before (had been a sole trader for a year prior) and it was a godsend for...

    Newbie with a bunch of points I can't use XD

    I wish I could get something fancier, but the grim reality is I’m a millennial who doesn’t own a home and my business is only 3.5 years old (only 2 as a Pty Ltd company), thereby limiting what cards and such I can get. Hell, I couldn’t even get any finance to open our second store despite having...

    Newbie with a bunch of points I can't use XD

    We hold no major hopes, but would be pleasantly surprised to be able to do it. Otherwise, we’ll do a trip to the US one day and go LA to Tokyo and do it that way. I’m gonna be accumulating points like mad so as long as JAL don’t go bust it could be cool,

    Newbie with a bunch of points I can't use XD

    I've noticed that there's only like 6-8 months in advance the JAL flights come up. We were looking between October and January to fly out. As it stands, they still have the 777-300 running the route Sydney to Haneda and the last one I could see was the 25/10/21 departing Sydney in the am. Even...

    Newbie with a bunch of points I can't use XD

    Name's Six and I got a Qantas Amex for the business literally right as Covid struck last year. The aim was to use the points for my annual holiday with my fiancee, which obviously ain't happening now. All up I've racked up a little over 550K in points since April last year. The aim was to use...
