    The Velocity Status Run Master thread

    My understanding is that, for the first part, it is based on the GST inclusive price. Perhaps someone that has booked an airfare, travelled and received SCs post-2 April can enlighten us?

    What do you collect on your travels?

    Worthy of a cross-post in the travel mistake thread @Flyfrequently 🤣

    Up to 125 Bonus Status credits with min 2 Business Flyer bookings

    Nothing to do with business class, your choice flights ought to be fine, but flights had to be booked with an ABN or via the business flyer portal. Odd that no SCs have come through unless they were rewards.

    Who else still holds the Citibank Free For Life Premier Card?

    Mine hangs up which is actually an improvement on getting a message that "I'm not eligible for any offers", if I'm being optimistic. It used to be all tickety-boo but I become ineligible after getting a 50k QFF points ready credit which, for some reason, required me to get a new app login. A...

    What cheeses me off

    If she enters on the Thai passport I can understand why you'd need to show it on exit. But asking for Thai ID on the basis of appearance doesn't seem right and you're right to be cheesed off. Do others with dual passports have to show both when entering or exiting countries?

    Who else still holds the Citibank Free For Life Premier Card?

    Interesting new offer: It's a nett square proposition so the nicest thing I can say about it is that it makes a nice change from the devaluation emails of late.

    What cheeses me off

    Three birth certificates? Must have been traumatic for the mother 🤣 Do you have to show both passports and Thai ID? Presenting only the Australian passport would make asking for a Thai birth certificate somewhat presumptuous.

    AFF Member Stock Discussion

    I don't want this to sound a churlish question, but was this an actual phone call? If so, what did they say? Or do you mean something like, "I made a good decision/pick up/observation regarding their expansion v profitability". I realise we're playing the same sport, obviously at different...

    New Amex statement credits

    I think the map shows where Amex is accepted rather than participating locations. The map around south Canberra shows vets, dentists, car washes, etc when clicking on "View participating locations". Further illustrating the map feature is not what it should be, the "locations nearby" links...

    SkyTeam Status Match - ITA Airways

    Got a personal visit from the postie today who rescued the contents of yesterday's envelope from the dead letter office. There's now even more questions but imma leave it be, except to say this postie should be driving around in a van solving mysteries. The packaging is rather elaborate for...

    Vinomofo Wine Deals

    Interesting graph by Alan Kohler on the ABC news last night. I can't screenshot it for some reason but if you watch on iview and skip to about 25:00mins it shows that wine to China has increased by $1b+ in the last year and decreased by 13% everywhere else. The Chinese don't have issues with...

    SkyTeam Status Match - ITA Airways

    So just to confirm the contents of the envelope were a (nice looking) card and some leather bag tags? I can live without those as I've added the card to apple wallet but if there's anything else in there that's worth chasing up (which I really don't want to bother with)?

    SkyTeam Status Match - ITA Airways

    I got delivered an empty envelope! It'd been carefully opened by the looks. Equally weird was that the postie had put it inside the back door which was open as I'd just popped out for wet weather pick up at school.

    This could be the new ad slogan!! Send them an invoice and a "You're welcome" @Cruiser Elite!!

    So, what music are you listening to now?

    Love a good backstory but I question the wisdom of revealing that the best lines to one of the most recognisable songs ever were ripped off while insulting their originator too.

    Nostar edit to add that I heard the DPS routes are referred to as "vomit comets"

    London to Edinburgh Road Trip

    They sure were and they were often in handy locations with knowledgeable hosts. Used them extensively in the late 90's and early 00's. Great memories of a bed and a full english the morning for a tenner a head, 20 quid in the bigger cities.

    London to Edinburgh Road Trip

    Is there still a Bed and Breakfast system in the UK these days? Or has it gone to online platforms like AirBnB?
