Loving the idea of $20k J return fares which are a LHR/FRA lucky dip.

Has anyone here gotten more than one US Amex charge/credit card? I used global card relationship to get a US Gold card after moving to the US, but can't get any other cards now because Amex requires a US tax return to prove income (which I won't have til year-end). I also no longer have an AU...

Still receiving Au SMS internationally just having an Amaysim sim w/ PAYG credit... for now.

I got worried when they sent this out, because I use an Amaysim e-SIM in the US to recieve 2FA SMS for Australian services (i.e. banks) and there's no cost to receive messages ($5 AYG credit lasts 365 days and mine has never gone down). The FAQ doesn't mention recieving SMS will now require a...

IMO that blog is 95% filler. If I had a cent for every IHG CC "last chance" promo I saw on it... Persian rug store style website.

They really missed a trick not doing F/J/W/Y

Before I did the trans-Siberian in '19 I flew S7 Y NRT-VVO on a 320n, and can't remember it being bad (or memorable) - just that there was some kind of sandwich option...

Hotel stay or prison stay?

If doing this, booking TK1992/4/6 from MAN might be preferable as they are often (but not always!) on a 777/330 instead of 321 for the 4 hours to Turkey. EDI/BHX is pretty much always narrowbody. I can't see any better prices from LHR so the only reason to go from there would be to have just one...

For applicable OW program members it's supposed to be MCE for member + up to eight companions Main Cabin Extra − Travel information − American Airlines Not sure if this applies to QF plats+?

I've had a pretty good hit rate with QF Gold, even to the extent of lounge agents not being sure about it and then 10 minutes later finding me in the lounge and giving me a new BP with MCE!

Related note on economy AA operated travel with QF status (Gold or above) that I've figured after being in the US a little bit. All oneworld sapphire and emeralds used to get free main cabin extra seats (economy w/ extra leg room/exit row and (sometimes) complementary alcohol/spirits). This was...

In the US it's meters

US Amex Gold 90000 Bonus for 4k spend + $200 statement credit Link

goddam_ its so funny how cough this app is now. The trip cards on the home screen don't even show your final destination if you have a conection. You have to go into the trip details to see the legs. i.e. i have an ORD-IST-CAI which just shows as ORD-IST. Then, if you have a stop over for a few...

CheckMyTrip has just been updated, and seems markedly worse. I thought it was just a gui update but: It no longer displays e-ticket numbers or seats You can no longer log into a desktop website To add a trip you now have to interact with a coughpy chatbot. Not sure how anyone at Amaedus thought...

QF is a Low Quality Carrier for passengers QF is a High Cost Carrier for taxpayers QF is a Low Cost Carrier for... no one?

Thanks, good resource!

I really like flight connections, but have paid for the yearly membership which can show airports/routes by alliance, and you can multi-select airlines to display. Granted sometimes the site is a bit glitchy, but I think it's worth it. I haven't found anything which is as useful.

You don't get microwaved in the TSA line (in my experience), just the classic metal detector. Another benefit for the tinfoil-hatted.
