    YAT80C - Yet Another T80 Calculator

    Tried it out and easy to use. One observation: the calendar entry created has the note: “Check-in and reserve the best seat” It’s not possible to check-in at T-80, you can only do seat selection.

    Oneworld Classic Flight Reward Discussion - The Definitive Thread

    My suggestion is to use either Facebook Messenger or Twitter to request ticketing. You'll wait a long time - sometimes hours - between messages but they've always delivered for me. Call centre staff - with the exception of HBA - never seem willing or able to expedite ticketing and just give the...

    Oneworld Classic Flight Reward Discussion - The Definitive Thread

    Same thing happened to us prior to our OWA. Everything was ticketed, did the trip without incident only to have the points finally deducted within a day of our return.

    Oneworld Classic Flight Reward Discussion - The Definitive Thread

    From my experience of booking (and cancelling) a OWA over the last few years I would say there is one factor that trumps all others in assessing pros and cons - availability. Definitely book now in my view. And, as others have suggested, jump onto any changes requiring reticketing. MH is as...

    Priority Pass vs Plaza Premium Smart Traveller and others

    Agree with p--and--t, just purchasing coupons as and when needed via the Gourmet Society path is very straightforward. Only reason I've also gone the Regus membership path is because the Gourmet Society offer may disappear at any time - in fact I thought it had.

    Priority Pass vs Plaza Premium Smart Traveller and others

    Have a look at DragonPass: https://www.pointhacks.com.au/dragonpass-guide/ But don’t pay for the basic membership- you can get it for free via Regus. Read the comments attached to the above article for info on how to do this.

    Dragonpass Regus

    Email [email protected] asking them to extend your membership for 12 months. You'll probably need to chase them up as they aren't very responsive. I usually say I'm travelling in the near future and wish to use the membership while away.

    Helped needed - need to speak to a QF call centre in Oz to solve a routing problem!

    Had a similar experience trying to book reward flights MEL-SYD-NLK (Norfolk Island)-SYD-MEL. System unbelievably couldn't find availability on the final SYD-MEL leg even though a separate search for that leg found numerous flights. Cost me a few more points but I just booked the trip without...

    How easy is it to cancel a QF booking done on FF pts

    Qantas has advised that the first leg of a 2 leg partner reward flight has been cancelled and there are no alternative flights available. The remaining leg is not much use on it's own so can I cancel it without paying the 6000 point penalty?

    Credit Card Offers HSBC Star Alliance Credit Card: Fast-Track to Star Alliance Gold Status

    Achieved minimum spend a few days ago and received confirmation email today prompting me to select an SA member. I'm very likely to go for AC/Aeroplan due to the 50K points offer but curious to know if VA benefits for Aeroplan Gold members are the same as SA/UA. I've seen in a few places that...
