    Hoyts and Qantas hook-up

    Do you earn QF points from Candy bar spend or Movie tix only? Despite the $15 Drink, Popcorn and Choc top being detrimental to my waistline, I'll risk becoming a POS if my corpulent posterior is sitting in J or F

    Award tickets on Star Alliance change in 16 APR ?

    Just completed booking MEL-BKK RT in F for next year. Thank God I decided to book early to redeem Old class A380 suites & 777ER F instead of waiting for Saver Awards in the new Suites via Syd. The Devaluation from 1.35 to 1.55 was already a decent blow to me personally, a further Devaluation...

    SQ Amenity kits

    When Flying in F do you Automatically get a Teddy bear or are they rationed out even to F Pax? Also, I've heard the Unisex Amenity kits have the candles while the M/F kits have cologne - is this still the case, or are Unisex kits handed out by default?

    Book the Cook- Recommendations

    Although it's in the previous 12 cabin version, got my first Suites experience coming up soon. Will Definitely have to try having the Kyo Kaiseki for breakfast and save the Lobster Thermidor for TPR.

    "Le Club Accor" to becom "Accor Live Limitless" or "ALL"

    If one can have Ibis business as well as Accor plus, this will only be of benefit as long as Gold's still get the room upgrade subject to availability. If Platinum becomes the new Gold then just getting Accor plus seems like a much better deal

    Flybuys travel accomodation query

    Hi all, I'm planning to book accomodation in Thailand (BKK & Pattaya) for next year, in Accor group hotels. If I book through Flybuys Travel, can I still earn Le Club points/status credits i.e. double dip like booking flights with V.A. or is it better to just book with Accor directly? Thanks...

    Does anyone here actually collect amenities kits as a hobby?

    Matt_01 I'd be interested in the Emirates J men's amenity kit, particularly the crescent moon with the Bulgari toiletries. I find amenity kits useful for going to the gym as well as travel. Feel free to PM me if you'd like to lighten the load a bit.

    What people do to try to get a hotel upgrade

    The annoyance is exacerbated when you come across English language movies or shows which have been dubbed over in Italian, Spanish etc. This can actually be quite funny for shows/ movies that you can quote verbatim, & can tell what's going on by mere body language alone. Not to mention, you can...

    'The House' 3 hour limit [Now rescinded for VA PAX]

    I wonder if it's possible to ask for a 15 ml gin chaser if you notice them being stingy on your pour? Was the French stuff only available to WP's & Full Fare J Pax, or just not available?

    Velocity Daily - VISA's version of "shop local"

    What I'd Love if they rolled out nationally is the ability to swipe your Velocity card at Velocity partners In Store. Certainly an idea to invigorate Physical Retail, which is going downhill rapidly in this online age.

    How do I get the most from my 2x free lounge passes

    Agree with Stm1Sydney - turn up 3 hrs before & enjoy the benefits of status :-) While their a nice perk of status, IME the VA lounges in Aus are serviceable, but definitely want to avoid peak times, periods & popular flights to maximize the experience. Tends to lack Wow Factor if flying as...

    Velocity eStore promotions

    Ebay used to be Very good, now they're only $1=1 point. Christmas time is when Everyone is spending, but alot of competition for your money. Pretty sure I got goods from both Clinique & Rebel Sport for $1=10 points. Recent Fathers day promotion, Rebel were doing $1=6 points.

    Does anyone here actually collect amenities kits as a hobby?

    If you ever get a AF La Premiere Givenchy branded amenity kit, keep it. Easily the most stylish unisex cases out there, & the Le Soin Noir products are Indeed Fabulous, as well as Expensive!They make Bulgari amenities look cheap pricewise, even the mini ones!
