I wonder if it will qualify if one is able to add the ABN to a CR over the phone; is this even possible? I've had success getting missing QBR points added after a paid flight by phoning and adding a missing ABN but, of course, CRs don't earn points (only SCs for points club members)

Yes, I was referring to booking a classic reward through the Business Rewards portal; you need to have sufficient points in your QBR account to book a CR. Of course, there is no problem booking a paid ticket.

That's interesting. I tried to book a flight and the "Select" button was greyed out with a note stating "insufficient points".

The issue with this (at least for me) is that you need to have sufficient Business Rewards points in your account to be able to book through the Business Rewards portal whereas most of my points are in my personal account. I don't know of a way to transfer personal points to Business Rewards...

Just received this by email: Qantas Business Rewards member exclusive Hi Jacques, For a limited time, you and travellers in your business can enjoy double Status Credits on Qantas operated flights with a QF flight number. With no limit to the number of flights you can book, plan ahead to...

Perhaps keep an eye on the exchange rate and hope for an opportunity to buy at a better time.

Given the lack of availability using QF points, it's good to have an alternative currency, especially one that can be used for QR.

So you need to buy a policy of at least $100 (probably $101 to be sure) to get 1,500 sign-on points...

I agree it's nonsense but unfortunately this error has been hanging around for a number of years. Sometimes the computer/agent counts a surface sector two stopovers, sometimes correctly as one.. I've never been able to figure out why and unless you get an experienced agent in HBA there is no...

Should be; the points will come from QF Hotels not Accor.

ALL Accor are specifically excluded in the T&Cs.

My son and his family (total 5 persons) are departing from NRT on Jetstar in January. (I guess we have all had to do such things when travelling with 3 kids.) I think JQ depart from terminal 3. If I am reading the Priority Pass website correctly, there is no PP lounge access in terminal 3...

Has anyone seen anything about the PP membership with rhe City Prestige?

My Avios subscription is up for renewal again in 12 days. When I initially took out the subscription at GBP455, it worked out to be just on $800 for the Traveller level (thanks to Liz Truss); now with the current exchange rate it's around $940. I'ld be tempted to end it except that new...

For those that have signed up to Binge, what's the content like? I realise that we're all doing it for the SCs but I would feel happier if I knew that there will be something I would like to watch.

Yes indeed. When it comes to government borrowing I support it for infrastructure, but not for recurrent expenditures. Let's take the example of the Sydney Harbour bridge. Who should have paid for its construction: those paying tax in 1936 or those who will/continue to get the benefit of its...

Oh dear...

To be fair, you need to acknowledge that those oldies who are self-funding their retirement are saving the government(s) significant sums each year. A couple drawing the maximum Age Pension ($46,202) plus rent assistance ($5,278) is drawing over $51k from the Federal budget; add in various...

I should have added that there is nothing to stop me claiming against the Amex for something unrelated to my pre-existing conditions when the benefit is better. However I do need to take an additional policy so that medical expenses resulting from pre-existing conditions are covered.
