    DOH Lounge Access? [J to Europe, transit]

    There are lockers in AM South, just to the right as you enter. Not sure about AM North as I haven’t tried leaving any bags there yet.

    Does a QR upgrade Y to j or J to f actually exist?

    There needs to be award availability for that to happen, more likely in less busy periods. They do release last minute award seats if they still have space but you need to be quick, last time they released a seat 12 hours prior but it was snapped up within 30s. One other option is to ask for...

    Q Suite Question

    It will be insanely challenging to find 4 seats on a single flight with QR, I would advise getting 2 seats on separate days, or just paying for the other tickets. The 2x Avios reward seats won't show up until you book the 2 at saver rate and that is not guaranteed to happen either.

    15,000 BA Avios with a subscription to The Economist

    Was going to sign up to take an advantage of this offer again, turns out The Economist have ended their partnership with BA in January 2024. https://myaccount.economist.com/s/article/Can-I-earn-Avios-points-with-a-subscription-to-The-Economist

    Buying Qatar Avios

    I’ve gotten about 6 seats between Europe and Australia in the last year, there’s definitely less availability than before but it is not even remotely as bad as QF.

    15-20% bonus points when transferring to Velocity in May-June 2024

    Hmm yeah, similar exclusion for NAB, I wonder why they specifically exclude only the Platinum cards?

    15-20% bonus points when transferring to Velocity in May-June 2024

    Pretty rough exclusion under the T&C’s for ANZ.

    I've cancelled an award a couple of months ago and it took 7 days for the fees to be refunded.

    Velocity 20% bonus points on transfers offer - November 2023 to January 2024

    Just got off a call with Velocity, she said they're encountering a "system issue" and to wait until end of today to see if they will post, otherwise to call back next week and they will escalate it to the proper team. Confirmed that I am eligible so I guess I can go ahead and cancel my card.

    Velocity 20% bonus points on transfers offer - November 2023 to January 2024

    No bonus from ANZ for me or my wife, I'm not looking forward to chasing these up....

    Booking award flight - did I just make newbie mistake?

    You won’t get a return in J for 90k Avios, I’d say make the most of it and try to at least use them on one flight, I personally wouldn’t redeem them for economy. There are J seats out of Adelaide pretty much the whole week, here’s one on the 25th September. Departs late so you have plenty of...

    Velocity 20% bonus points on transfers offer - November 2023 to January 2024

    Hmm I always thought "by" meant prior to the date but trusty uncle Google says it is inclusive.

    Velocity 20% bonus points on transfers offer - November 2023 to January 2024

    It's looking more likely that we'll need to chase this bonus up unless by some miracle it gets posted within the next 9 hours.

    Qantas Promises to Fix Ongoing Reward Flight Ticketing Failures

    Used both Twitter and Facebook, I’d say the Twitter one was a bit better as it didn’t have the annoying chat bot that tries to “resolve” your issue.

    Everyday Rewards Targeted Offers

    Citibank "4th night free" perk

    Yeah, this is what I've done a few weeks ago and it worked well. I've just sent a list of hotels to the concierge email who gave me the total pricing for each option and the 4th night rebate amount. Much easier than trying to get pricing for 5+ hotels over the phone.

    Article: CommBank Awards Isn’t Ideal for Frequent Flyers

    Their list of partners is very good but the earn rate after factoring the redemption rates is awful, they don't seem to even have decent sign-up bonuses either. CBA cards have always been a miss for me.

    Adding an infant to Classic Reward international on QF+BA

    I've added an infant to three QF reward bookings a few months ago (flights with JL, AF and QF) via the Facebook and Twitter message. Infant was added to the current bookings and linked to one of the passengers. Only had to pay $4.70 in taxes for the JL flight, not sure why the others did not...

    Virgin/Qatar seat selection

    Award tickets on QR always book into the "U" fare class but annoyingly it is not listed on their website showing which fare classes come with lounge access.
