    RTW 2.5x - a DONE4 with stops in NYC, London and Italy (HCO only)

    Just wondering if you considered using the AA lounge at T4? You would have access to their Flagship Lounge which is pretty good and rarely crowded. Its not "table service" for food, but generally a reasonable selection from the buffet and quite a nice range of self-service beverages. And nice...

    I almost made the cardinal sin of letting my Marriott Bonvoy points expire

    In the past I have used Marriott Bonvoy as a program to launder Amex Rewards points to AAdvantage. This used to be reasonable value, but in recent years the transfer rates have been "enhanced" and transfer bonus promotions have been non-existent. I knew it was a while since I had transacted...

    Thank you for your loyalty

    80 SCs (useless to me) and 5000 points (quite useful) added to my account today. Now less than 8K to PC+ renewal before the end of the month.

    Is InterContinental Brisbane Just a Crowne Plaza in a Fancier Suit?

    I don't know if there is a physical connection or not. But what I do know is that Indigo was directing customers to the public car park in Tank St and not directing to use Voco car park.

    Is InterContinental Brisbane Just a Crowne Plaza in a Fancier Suit?

    When I stayed at Voco, my vehicle *just* fit under the max height guide (by less than 20mm), and I had lots of trouble getting into and out of the only available parking space in the dungeon they call a car park. It was really, really tight. While the NM-Bus is not a compact size vehicle, it is...

    Is InterContinental Brisbane Just a Crowne Plaza in a Fancier Suit?

    Its location, perhaps 😝? Right on the Queens St Mall means its very central to most CBD sites. Better car park than Voco (very low clearance and very tight spaces) or Indigo (what car park? Oh you mean the public one a block away?). There you go, two positive comments :) Now eagerly awaiting...

    Is InterContinental Brisbane Just a Crowne Plaza in a Fancier Suit?

    Yep, its a crazy location for anything other than staying within the resort itself. Nice rooms, nice lounge. Nice pool/lagoon. But outside the "village" there is not much else around. I take it you saw my emoji in previous post :cool:

    Yes, the information certainly says "by 30 September". It does not say "on 30 September". So it is certainly possible that it will arrive before 30 September. In my case, my end of membership year is 30 September, so I would dearly like to see it arrive at least a few days before that to know...

    I still don't understand where there is confusion. I assume you are referring to this reference to a table: The table is part of the answer to the question "When will I receive the status Gift?" Then scrolling down there is a new section describing the Points Gift. It includes the same...

    Its pretty clear and straight forward to me. There are two offers. One is Status Credits gift to QFF members based on their current status level. This Status gift is unrelated to PC or PC+ membership. The second is Points gift which is offered to PC and PC+ members. The two gift offers are...

    According to the Qantas FAQ in the Qantas Points bonus gift section for PC and PC+ members: and So I have no expectation that I will see it in my account until 30th September, No mention of 8th September for the Qantas Points Bonus Gift. The 8th September is only mentioned under the section...

    Thank you for your loyalty

    The SCs are useless to me (Membership year to end September). The 5K points as PC+ member will be handy as I was expecting to be just short of re-qualifying PC+ and was going to move a few points from QBR to get over the hurdle. The 5K might be just enough to be me there without needing to...

    Well, for me the SC gift is absolutely useless. My membership year ends 30th Sept so they are only valid for a few weeks. I hold Lifetime Gold status and will not be reaching Platinum. So the SCs come in , sit in my account for 3 weeks, then disappear. Useless. But the 5000 points ofr PC Plus...

    Is InterContinental Brisbane Just a Crowne Plaza in a Fancier Suit?

    Hopefully Brisbane will get some new or significant refurbishments across a lot of hotel properties in the lead up to the Olympics. I am assuming that is the target/goal for this IC. They have the prime location in the CBD and now have a few years to get the refurbishment done well and position...
