yes that is get a room territory - cheap hotel near the airport which has flexible check in/check out times is Holiday Inn Express - they have a shuttle - it is 'sort of' opposite Terminal 3, but not easy to walk to - although from memory I walked back from the hotel to the airport through the...

SYD MEL Sat evening QF491: Choice of: Rueben Cheese plate Mushroom soup Choose the Rueben, was a bit soggy and not great - probably should have gone the cheese plate. Tea/coffee served on relatively short flight (not down back according to the announcements...)

In Vic, you can 'stack' the 4c WW discount with RACV 5c discount at EG stations, and get the everyday reward points. Similarly at Shell, you can 'stack' the AFL 4c with Coles 4c and get flybuys points also. Just a bit annoying flipping through different apps...

use a overseas friendly card - such as 28Degrees or HSBC - you will get pretty close to the bank exchange rate on the day for all FX transactions. Using your 'normal' visa or mastercard will provide a poor FX rate plus additional charges

AY normally tickets pretty quickly in my experience if booked online. If it a non-online route and was booked over the phone (ie some domestic Finland destinations) it can take longer as the system may not have the taxes correct. Note AY taxes and charges are pretty low compared to some other...

un-ticketed bookings seemingly do not longer appear on the web version of MMB, only on the app

you need to be careful regarding intra EUR reward seats, sometimes the taxes/charges of the partner airline exceed or are very close to the fares available for cash... EG KLM seems to have very high taxes/charges

suggest you dispute/do a charge back on your credit card if getting nothing out of merchant
