    SQ Tips, Trips and Tales

    I left a bag on the plane when arriving into MEL last night on SQ217 in a different suite to the one I was sitting in. I was sitting in 2C and left the bag in 2A. The contents of the bag are just gifts, so nothing valuable. Probably worth up to $100, so I won't be too sad if I don't see it...

    Had Krug NV on 17th Nov and then in TPR on the 1st of Dec they had Dom. They said it was changed to Dom a couple weeks ago, and that they will rotate it soon to PH rare? Amenity kit case looks different, but it's still Salvatore Ferragamo. PJ are different colour now: it's a blue'ish colour...

    Waitlist... [SQ award]

    Had WL for MEL-SIN in F come through 2 weeks before flight. Then the WL for SIN-MEL in F came through a week before the WL flight date, but the thing is, I was not notified, it was only by chance I was looking at my booking that it had said available for confirmation on the WL flight. Quite...

    Background: So my booked flights are J MEL-SIN-SGN return with a stopover in SIN on the way back for a few days. Update: So got a call from SQ on Saturday advising me that my request for upgrade could not be done because the ticket contains 2 sectors/legs, MEL-SIN and SIN-SGN and both sectors...

    Ahh ok. Haven't tried new F yet. Just had a look at the dates I had waitlisted and now it shows 2 saver award seats available for booking. Weird and annoying how I was not sent a waitlist confirmation. Anywho, called up to upgrade my seats as was told they had to pass this onto someone else...

    Another question: If I were to book 1x Saver and 1xStandard today, then my waitlist for 2xSaver comes through in a weeks time. Am I allowed to swap that Standard seat to a Saver seat (saving me 70k miles)?

    I'm looking at the seat map for Sq238 (777-300er) and it's only showing Row 1. Is there only one row in these planes now? edit: oh gawd. I had the 1 award saver seat selection window opened and left to recheck the date and now not available :( edit #2: ok so 30mins later the seat shows...

    I'm currently booked in J (2 pax) for MEL-SIN for 17/11 and have waitlisted F (2 Pax) for the same flight. Currently there is 1 saver award available to be booked, but not 2, hence the waitlist. Should I book the one seat in F and waitlist the 2nd pax in F, or just wait and hope my 2xF waitlist...

    Hmm so there's Standard award seats available? On par with EY apartments redemptions I think.

    Do we know if we can redeem award seats or will all the seats be for revenue pax?

    SQ Tips, Trips and Tales

    I was on the red eye SQ218 to SIN and surprisingly was the only one up all night watching movies and drinking Krug. Was not a good stopover day in SIN as I was sporting a hangover while walking around SIN waiting to check into our hotel at 2pm, unfortunately no early check in as it was busy...

    Credit Card Offers Amex Platinum Card Benefits, Offers & Discussion

    I'm still platinum. Got asked if I wanted to renew my accor plus memberhsip a couple weeks ago and was told I re-qualify for platinum for another year, Nov 2017- Oct 2018. I've only stayed in accor a total of about 8 days this past year, so I guess it doesn't take much to re-qualify compared to...

    Credit Card Offers Amex Explorer Offers & Discussion

    I don't think you can get the Explorer cards as a supplementary to the Platinum charge cards. Supplementary cards are the same as the original card type. On that note, I've got a plat charge card that I pretty much haven't used since I got my explorer card (about 1 year ago) because the...

    St George Amplify Signature Card 60,000 Qantas/Amplify points - Annual fee $279

    Please be careful when paying the Tax bill. An AFF member spent about 20-30k on ATO and got their points/card suspended. Search earlier in the this or the other St George card thread.

    hmm that's an idea. I guess if you points to burn you could book 2 saver and 2 standard and also wait list the 2 savers. Then hope the wait list gets released and just have to cancel the standard and book the waitlisted flight.

    Good news. So it's Saturday noon now, and got through, to what I assume is an overseas call centre, and got my business explorer linked to my ascent program on my plat charge card. Initially she said it can't be done because it's different programs, but I said my other explorer was linked to the...

    I had a similar situation on the missus' card. Tried to book a hotel with the travel credit. Credit got applied to booking total. Processed booking. However the booking got cancelled at the last stage as there was an error. Anywho, I tried booking again straight after the booking was cancelled...

    Just had a look at my business explorer card and it's linked to the gateway program. My explorer card was automatically linked to my ascent program when I got it a year ago :( Will have to give them a call during the working week.
