    What's your prediction on the Australian Dollar?

    I'd say 70% probability we'll stall here with a bottom of .8650's roughly. It'll probably bounce around between here and up a bit. BUT if it gets under .8650's then watch out 0.80.

    US Dividend Miles - Award Booking Questions and General Discussion

    My read of that interview was slightly different. The answer regarding the beginning of next year was not the actual quote as designated by the brackets. IMO it's the editor trying to put his use of the word "planning" into context, but only from his opinion.

    Ask The Pilot

    Sorry this is off topic but that's horrible Boris. You guys do an amazing job. The safety that goes into a flight that can all be undone by some idiot is ridiculous.

    @EtihadAirways EY unveil their A380 (the residence) apartments

    Private jet with barely 6 foot of headroom or bedroom, bathroom and sitting room. I'd be inclined to leave the jet at home. Fortunately I don't have to make that decision, hard as it is.

    Alaska Airline 40% More Bonus Miles

    The same thing may happen as last time when they see a bunch of Aussie buyers getting in on the bonus and cut the ability short. For the reason that the miles are historically not being burnt on their metal.
