Last evening: And this morning;

Not any longer. IC Ambassador ONLY provides benefits at Intercontinental Hotels and Six Senses Hotels Resorts Spas. IC Ambassador, IC Royal Ambassador and Kimpton Inner Circle members receive some benefits at Six Senses Hotels Resorts Spas. The specific benefits at Six Senses Hotels Resorts...

There seems to be some confusion between Intercontinental Hotel (IC branded hotels only) and Intercontinental Hotel Group (IHG - includes HI, CP, Voco, Indigo etc.). If the "G" or the term "Group", then it means all hotel brands in the group. If just the term IC or Intercontinental Hotel then...

There is no way that its anything more than new lipstick for the opening in June - re-branding is all they can achieve in that timeframe. But the article linked in the initial post in this thread suggests a 2-year process to get to the end game: So we can expect that it may be a work-zone for...

Then put them into the trip report :) No restrictions there.

The significant price reduction of fares from Australia to Europe was the major catalyst for my first international travel experience in 1974. I was not old enough to understand the fare rules and my parents were really only interested in getting the family (5 of us) to the UK and back. Outbound...

Freddie Mercury, Venus Williams, and Bruno Mars walk into a bar. They didn't planet that way.

So what are the fridge magnet collectors going to do when the next generation of fridges are non-ferrous? 🧲:eek:

As with most things in this space, YMMV is the key. I posted about my own experience earlier this year, so that is an accurate representation of the facts as I experienced in my most recent uptake of this card (third time too for me). I do not remember the exact timing of points arriving from...

Sounds like its time to convert those full beer glasses to empty beer glasses. No point hording the full ones too long 🍻

Me: Butler, my glass is half empty, can you fill it up please? Me: Butler, my glass is half full, can you fill it up please? Me: Butler, my glass twice as big as it needed to be, can you fill it up please? Me: Butler, forget the glass, just leave me the bottle. Me: Butler, this bottle has a...

I do understand that, but ... Exactly my reasoning - this is AFF, after all :)

I like to think of myself as a "my glass needs filling up" type of guy :cool:🥃

No way I will be spending $1000/month on the card. I just don't have that much foreign transactions to make that spend target. Many months I have none. And I am not going to forfeit $1000 spend on a points earning card for a $2 "win" value.

Just made two international purchased today (about AUD50 in total), and just transferred the AUD into my NAB fee-free debit card and paid using PayPal. So still not sure if its worth going through the re-application process for my fairly small usage. Certainly there is no consideration from my...

If touching the USA, then its piece.

I am not willing to put in the time/effort to go down the US card track. I do not have sufficient overseas travel or international spend to warrant that. I am more concerned at saving around 3% on the international spend I do make. And I do have a no-fee card, but it is a debit card and not a...

I wonder if anything has considered doing SYD-LHR-JFK-SYD, and SYD-JFK-LHR-SYD and if that might work for utilisation and avoid any extended tarmac time waiting for slots/curfews? Someone once said to me "Ahh, now you are thinking outside the box", and I looked them in the eye and said "What box?".

Having dumped my 28 Degrees card back when they changed to fee structure and not receiving an offer for fee waiver as some had received, I was surprised to receive a new(targeted) offer via email today. Looks like they have now realised that last year's changes lost them a lot of customers...
