    Lounge Access Help Desk

    Thanks. I don't think I was clear with my question. Does being in F on AA on any of those sectors give me lounge access anywhere?

    Lounge Access Help Desk

    I have a feeling this is already a "no" but i must ask. I'm OWR SYD-HNL J* - no lounge HNL-LAX - (AA) F - ? LAX-DFW - (AA) F - ? DFW-LGA - (AA) F - ? From my reading of the access criteria its a no on domestic, but there's something about flights over 5 hours?? Thanks in advance.

    ATO (tax office) payments by credit card

    I think put simply if you make a payment tomorrow and you don't get the points, you may want to fight it, but you're on thin ice.

    QF F vs EY J

    FWIW, EY J on the 787 was really good IMO. But i did have excellent service that flight so that might have made the difference

    A couple of questions from an AAdvantage newbie

    Re: Couple of AAdvantage questions from a newbie to it I flew apartments last week. I had an overnight I wanted to try and use this for. Tried online but couldn't complete the booking process so then called Etihad. No go. They sent me the terms and conditions and you can't get these nights...

    ETIHAD - AA Partner

    Thanks Kangol. I had successfully selected seats online prior to this and I still can for the SYD-AUH leg but the second flight I get an error "We are sorry. You cannot select a seat for this flight now. A seat may be assigned to you upon check-in." Needless to say I'll keep trying.

    ETIHAD - AA Partner

    Got in contact with Etihad. Weird explanation though. I started by telling him I had received an email detailing a change of my flights, I didn't tell him what had changed. He then said "ah yes Mr Craig, there was a schedule change and you've been put on a new flight. You were originally leaving...

    ETIHAD - AA Partner

    Interesting, and concerning. I didn't call Etihad because I thought considering AA were the issuing airline, I would have to start with them. I have no idea why I was moved. All flights AUH-LHR on that day have 0 guest(award) availability. But there's still seats for sale. But now that I've...

    ETIHAD - AA Partner

    As a point of interest. Booked in F on SYD-AUH-LHR in a couple of weeks. The SYD-AUH is 77W and AUH-LHR is 380. I wanted the apartments the whole way but it was a last minute booking and I'll take what I'm given(checking availability everyday though, sometimes twice..). BUT yesterday morning I...

    I will be over in the US over the new year and want to look at a SC run, how are you booking these flights now? I've booked them in the past but the booking engine has "simplified" and now i can't force it to do things.

    AMEX Corp Card for FOREX

    The AMEX forex 'specialist' gave me 7 pips off the spot.. Can you get better than that? I'd love to know how. We're currently paying about 12 pips and above and putting through $X MIL annually, would love tighter rates..

    AMEX Corp Card for FOREX

    Speaking to a forex specialist there's 2 ways to settle the transaction. On card settlement which will give you $1:1 point but cost you 2.4%. Or cash settlement on trade which there's no fee but only $30:1. But the good thing is the tight rate to the spot

    AMEX Corp Card for FOREX

    If you are doing spot rate conversions then they're pretty competitive. And if you're settling the balance and not waiting until settlement on card then it is points for nothing essentially as they don't charge the 2.4%. Even if it is only $30:1point. My main client is signing up and we'll put a...

    ANZ QFF Black 75,000 bonus / No Annual Fee First Year/ $7,500 spend in 3 months

    I don't know how much water this will hold but talking to a CC specialist at ANZ on the phone the other day, he said I could even apply for an ANZ black rewards card (not a QFF one) while my old ANZ QFF card was still open or cancel it and then apply.
