Re: Status Credits on reward seats The big relief here is that the MASAs are not planned to be withdrawn. Big win there.

Re: Qatar joining Oneworld date? That's fairly consistent amongst all of the OW programs when flying on QR flights, unfortunately.

If I drive away and discover the fuel gauge falling rapidly (suggesting it wasn't fully full) - I usually call customer service then and there and alert them. It usually makes it easier on return when you've been upfront about the car not being full. Most cars can go 50-60km without the gauge...

Re: QANTAS Classic awards to Status Credits Red Roo, I don't suppose you have any information to hand about whether this is here to stay or not? I'm not sure that it's going to swell the ranks of status all that much. Really, only a few people really get what SCs are about, and most think...

Re: Qatar joining Oneworld date? These sorts of things exist all over oneworld. Look at the Finnair Spa and Sauna at HEL. Finnair Plus Platinum get in for free, no-one else (no other OWE, no fare class passengers) can get it for free, even though it's a part of the Lounge. It's just part of...

Hertz will ignore that setting when it comes to tolls. I have that same setting, and still got asked what I wanted at Sydney, and MEL just puts it on and doesn't remove it unless you ask.

What they started doing a month ago was designating your booking as "SEE OFFICE" so that they could talk to you about the new tolling system and asking you if you wanted to opt in or out. It should only happen once. Unlike MEL where you usually have to ask for the tolls to be removed each time...

Note that the charge is $9/day PLUS the location surcharge PLUS the other percentage surcharge PLUS GST on all of the above charges. It works out around $12/day from SYD Airport. And to answer the OP, yes, I get a receipt, even if it's for a dollar or two (I sometimes drive a Hertz vehicle for...

Also, if you combine this with the P1 guarantee ("if there's a seat available, it's yours as a Classic Award") may have just become a whole lot more valuable.

Re: Qatar joining Oneworld date? I don't see the QR policy at DOH as that much different to things at SYD. QF operates a First Lounge at SYD T1 that you can access if you are flying at the International Terminal. Whilst you are in that terminal, you can access the Lounge. If you're flying...

Re: QANTAS Classic awards to Status Credits I had been hoping for this for so long and hoping that QANTAS would bring it in. Now I'm just hoping that it's a standard feature. If so, it would be fantastic. It's nice getting points back on a MASA, but it would be nicer to pay the lower taxes...

Does anyone have the original letter that came with the new HHonors Visa Card? I vaguely remember there being something about a free weekend night if you spend $2000 on the card in a short period of time. Or am I confusing it with the free weekend night if you spend $12000 on the card? I'm...

As with everything in the loyalty game, it's about changing goalposts. Some things are a disadvantage (I'll miss the 20% discount), but other things are getting better (I'll have more flexibility because I'll get the benefits of Diamond (or at least Gold) when I want it without the hassle of...

I'm looking into whether this might work for me. The idea is that for $295 per year, I get HHonors Gold all the time. But I'm wondering, if I cancel the card, and get re-approved for a new Macquarie HHonors Visa just after the 1st April (say, 2nd or 3rd April), so my anniversary date is then...

Sounds like it was not worth joining Club Jetstar - it sounds underwhelming.

Status: Diamond Property: Hilton Sydney Dates: 12-15 October Booked: King Hilton Guest with paid upgrades at desk Received: King Relaxation Suite (not complimentary) The complimentary upgrades haven't been coming that much for me at Hilton Sydney recently, so I did something I never thought I...

Re: Gold/Diamond [+anyone else][breakfast] Enhancement-coffee [now $5]-in Hilton Sydn I have some further bad news. I'm staying here for three days, and had my first Hilton breakfast this morning. It's just pitchers of brewed coffee and tea that are available. But also, something which...

I am using this lounge on a weekly basis - usually an early morning thing. Generally, I appreciate it, and it's good. Basic, but good. The biggest problem I have is that they constantly run out of milk for the milk frother for the coffee. However, they have started (although not always)...

You've been doing a lot better than me - which model do you usually order and what do you get? I've had everything from no upgrade to triple upgrades - it's been inconsistent. I usually order a Corolla Auto and sometimes a larger vehicle - it's rare that I haven't gotten the upgrade, but it's...

So what is the optimal setup in your Hertz profile to get the cheaper "package" rates? I'm assuming Loss Damage Waiver and Liability Insurance Supplement, but do the packages include Personal Effects (PAI)?
