    Jul, 2013. Best Card to Fly off?

    Amex have recently altered their earning ratios rendering their card, I would expect, no longer the best available. We are used to 1.5 pts per dollar earn rate, with a 1:1 transfer rate to most major airlines. Can anyone suggest another card which compares or betters this? TIA, The Fergus.

    A friend recommended the app TripCase and I'm giving it a whirl (iPhone) - but wonder if there may be better out there for storing all journey details; flights, trains, hotels, etc.. TIA.

    Curious Classic Seat Availability - can anyone explain?

    On April 5 next year, the day before good Friday, I want to fly ADL-MEL using points. Curiously, there's loads of choice but only if I fly the scenic route via via Sydney. So, there's plenty of SYD-MEL seats, and ADL-SYD - just not MEL-SYD which makes me think it's not Easter causing it -...

    We're not up for the cultural sights, probably not for the tourist bits either. That leaves the bars, clubs (we're over 35), restaurants and generally interesting night spots. Any ideas and first hand recommendations? First question; In what district should we hotel? Thanks in advance...

    Safari & Qantas.com.au What the?

    To start by answering my own question.. I guess I should be addressing Qantas on this but it's not just my Safari that can't access the QFF site, *is it*? It's a pain in the cough to go to Opera for just that and nothing else. Anyone got any information on this that may help?

    Qantas has some catching to do...

    I'm more a frequent spender than flyer but as a result, Amex give me enough points for two First Class seats to Europe or anywhere I guess, every eighteen months. Now, just so we are clear, that's about thirty five thousand dollars of free stuff every eighteen months. Once, I won a chook at...

    Singapore Airlines. Changed Redemption Availability?

    I've recently run away from the White Kangaroo and was delighted with the Singapore Airlines offering - first class, virtually any day available at nearly half the points cost of Qantas - why wouldn't I be delighted? Before transferring my points into KrisFlyer, I looked regularly for...

    New to KrisFlyer. What's Waitlist?

    I'm a veteran QFF who thinks KrisFlyer looks superior now Amex are offering parity but there's some questions - My interest is only in first & business cabins (hence my reason for looking over the fence...) KF offer saver and non saver type redemptions - Does non saver mean every seat...
