They really up the price when you start involving dual registered vehicles and transits across the border, but that price form downtown Hong Kong to Kai Tak is over the top - just get a taxi or an Uber for that sort of trip.

Depends on the budget. If you have lots of luggage, and want point to point, something like Asia Car Service will pick you up from wherever and drop you at the airport. Depending on how the wind is blowing / what changes have happened, have had both just sit in the car as you go through...

I suspect whether or not they extend the waiver will have a lot to do with how much has been spent on the card in the last year. For various reasons, I had to put a fair bit through the card over the last year.

Just got the same email. Looks like a batch run happening....

Assuming that all flights are QF, then you should be Ok according to Through Check Policy It should have no impact on the DSC. Whether the desk agent at NTL is prepared to do it or not is a different question.

Beware - that is overhead damage, and not covered by the excess or the insurance. Renter will likely be up for the full cost of repairs (to both the truck and the structure they have hit).

There would be a good reason for that. I highly doubt that the scales they have at that point have all the necessary approvals and checks done (especially since they are moving them around) to comply with Australian Trade Measurement laws - and since they are "selling" a cabin bag up t that...

The other thing that comes into play here, with differential rates for different origins is all sorts of artificial avoidance. If there is a 100% tariff applied from Country A, but only 10% from Country B, and no tariffs between Country A and Country B, then the goods origin can be switched to...

Sorry no.. See IATA Guidance on Baggage Standards Baggage rules apply to an entire Itinerary as stated in all three interpretations. This either follows IATA Resolution 302, or for travel involving US or Canada U.S. DOT Regulation399.87 or CTA Order 2014-A-158 respectively. The general IATA...

Agree. Because US destinations are not part of the EK agreement, and as all destinations that are part of the EK agreement use weight, EK have implemented the status based baggage allowances and being extra weight, and nothing to do with extra pieces. Once you end up with a ticket with an...

If you look at Qantas Wines, and the bonus point offers you can buy points for as low as 2.3c per point, and get bonus wine as well.

It is counting on some cardholders consuming less of the extras than the annual fee, but it is also counting on those extras driving lots of spending on the card generating fees from the merchants. All the travel insurance basically requires lots of spend to be put on the card - all the...

The annual fee covers lots of things - depends which you use. It also pays for the Travel credits, the Travel Insurance itself, the various cashback offers like shop small, extra points earn etc. Depends on what you value. The insurance is very good in some respects, but not so useful in...

LMGTFY Qantas Titanium Travel Insurance After 6 hours delay up to $750 per covered person, but has a $250 per person excess.

Again the Platinum Amex insurance comes up trumps - zero excess on Travel Inconvenience cover

A real bummer that the Amex insurance wouldn't be available for a work trip as it would not have been paid for on your card, However, begs the question of what sort of TI your employer has arranged to cover you for these situations?

The Amex platinum Travel Inconvenience cover is very good for these annoying sorts of delays (9 - 12 hours overnight). So a four hour delay and the amount available kicks in - and the scheduled benefit is up to $700 - and if 2 covered persons travelling, $1,400 - which is much more flexible...

This is where Travel Insurance with a higher limit is very useful. Can safely go your own way and book, then work out whether to hit up QF or the TI, knowing that if QF baulk, the TI will cover you, Had a case of being called in London about midday about a delay for QF SIN-SYD that was going...

The CIRC22 are Oneworld Circle Pacific fares (See conditions). and in a similar category to the Global Explorers (RTW fares). They have very specific requirements - eg. Australia, North America, North Asia, have mileage limitations, numbers of stops and distance limitations. Great value if...

If you want the DSC, then the existing PNR will have to be used, so the TA approach is out (I don't think there is going to be much they could do with those fare classes anyway). You can use your flex Y one way to change to any of option 2, 3, or 4 that you wish at any time. Given the change...
