    Hilton Price Match Guarantee

    A hotel program should not be judged on its BRG, firstly does it have properties where you travel and what are the east of earn/burn. BRG is a gimmick at best, it was good when there were a lot less rules, we had one member who used it with another chain to get free suite stays but his self...

    Thank you for your loyalty

    Had an interesting call with QF yesterday. My membership year ends in Oct and as I am doing a stack of J flying this year thought I would call about the thank you status credits and see if they can be moved into my new year. Apparently they can be moved only if the members status level has been...

    Business Rewards Points Argument

    But not for Business Rewards, you need to ring and ask for original routing credit for business rewards for the flight that was changed by Qantas
