    Extension of travel credit

    Cancellable booking is the key. I have had my Travel Credits "reinstated" this way on several (unfortunate) occasions

    Keep your Asia Miles active and they’ll never expire

    I have a different experience. I booked a award seat flight back in Jan 21 to use my expiring points for a flight from Perth to HK in Sep. The flight was cancelled/rescheduled by CX in Apr so I took the chance to cancel the award booking. All points have since been returned to my respective...

    Aus. Financial Review benefit gone. (Replaced with The Australian)

    Thanks, but what a disappointment (that this gets the go ahead). Admittedly purely a personal view

    50SC on offer with BP

    omg, for some reason I thought it was a graph on COVID cases at first glance - I even for a moment doubted why this is in this thread! Silly me

    50SC on offer with BP

    Not sure if I read somewhere only one credit per day???

    Qantas to fast track airline loyalty program status

    I read somewhere that Qantas had confirmed SCs from BP promotion count towards fast track requirement. The timing of credit is certainly another concern but assuming you completed a flight before the deadline but the SC only shows up after a week's time, you probably have a solid claim...

    Qantas to fast track airline loyalty program status

    As I have qualified with my trip to NZ earlier, I did not pursue but am still wondering if one can apply for Qantas Club (renewal with the complimentary membership on fast track enrolment?), pay for 2 years to get 100 SC to get to Gold, suspend the QC membership whilst a FF Gold, enjoy the QC...

    Qantas to fast track airline loyalty program status

    Congratulations on fulfilling the requirements. Just a piece of information for you to consider your next move - I also took a trip to Auckland mid June and within 2 or 3 days, got the SC reflected (might be even just the next day?). Very soon after that, definitely within a week, I got the...

    Aus. Financial Review benefit gone. (Replaced with The Australian)

    Not yet but I don't think I will really bother with "Australian". A completely different league, to say the least...

    Qantas to fast track airline loyalty program status

    Please check very carefully. I am no expert but did look at the option of using Wantas Club bonus SC for a similar purpose but came across a note in the T&Cs that those SCs were excluded from various status fast track challenges. Did not look into details nor clarify with Qantas as I am super...

    Credit Card Offers Amex Platinum Card Benefits, Offers & Discussion

    Would this be "via" a professional association, eg CPA Australia?

    Qatar Airways status match to Virgin Australia

    From memory, just “called” up the digital card in the app, there is a link immediate underneath for adding to your Apple wallet

    Qatar Airways status match to Virgin Australia

    I think @joon8887 refers to accessing Qantas lounges in Australia (Qantas First when in Sydney) using the OW Sapphire status compliments of Qatar Gold?!

    Discussion/Q&A on Best QF Status Run Options

    A weird thought - for those (including myself) having to get 100SC to fast tracke to Gold, would it work if I apply for a Qantas Club membership under the special offer, using the bonus SC to attain Gold, freeze the Qantas Club membership whilst the QFF Gold is maintained, thus avoiding the need...

    New Amex statement credits

    I was told the same by a local travel agent (small business)

    New Amex statement credits

    As more often than not, just issued 2 Qantas air tickets via Amex Travel yesterday using my travel credits plus additional payment. Thought I was smart/lucky and then… 😓

    Check Accor Plus free night availability

    I suspect the availability is “seasonal” - pure speculation but I did have the experience years back that a particular hotel was not available on weekends (but that may have changed?!)
