Loving this thread,wish I had something to contribute but all my flights have been mundane :?

ZOMG that site had me in tears, thanks so much for the link :p Back to the thread, I think the concept of being kicked off for tracky daks is just insane, be if it was a hot girl they would of let her fly :evil:

I have to say all things considered, from a points perspective it's pretty worthless, you get 100 voucher that has to be booked in 3 months and flown in 6 months :shock: On top of that you can't earn any point over $50,000 dollars and if you did spend $50K you would get 5 seperate vouchers? I...

I was coming back from Byron flying out of Ballina and a regular flyer was talking about aborted take offs and that apparently Ballina is now the only visual approach in Australia (commercial I guess) and that it's really small. His exact words were "it's like landing on an aircraft carrier"...

Geoff, thanks for that reply it was really simple and encouraging if you don't mind I might just try copying your strategy and see how I go :) As I am not flying a lot right now accruing points via bills sounds like a sensible thing to do. Thanks to everyone for your replies, they were a...

Thanks for the repy Sky :p

OMG!!! Those responses are amazing Thanks so much everyone, I think that I will look at what regular spending I do that will earn me points and see if I can't get some work expenses on my credit card :)

I was looking into one of those deals where you move your debt over for an interest free period and found this comparison site that was really good: Compare Credit Cards with our Credit Card Comparison Tool - Mozo Serfty thanks for the link

Thanks for all the replies :) I think something tied to credit cards makes sense as I can put utilities and the like on there. Will have a look around and see if I can get my head around it.

I travel about 4 times a year from Sydney to the goldie to see my Mom and maybe an OS trip every 2 years when I can afford it :)

Sorry if this has been covered off before, but I joined this forum hoping to get ... I don't know some really easy tips to get cheap flights and stuff :? I know that sounds silly, but I didn't really think that there would be so many acronymns and complexity to the schemes.So a simple question...

Sorry for the newbie question but what is the best value points plan, I have to admit I finding this all a little confusing.I travel about 4 times a year domestic and once every two years international (or there abouts) :)

I can't post links yet but there is this awesome video of the Google latitude team doing a stunt using it :)Type in "Google Latitude Stunt" in YouTube to see it.But I kinda agree that it could be creepy and invasive.

Thanks, sorry I missed that in all the chatter :)Might peep out the Optus deals supposed to be the best.How come they don't make them in pink.

Ok, I've spoken to my friend who spent half a year in South America, she kindly wrote me these tips!:1. Learn some Spanish - the basics are fine but more importantly, know the 'feel' of the conversation. Since south americans are so expressive, they are easy to 'read', if one is being snaky they...

Who has the new iPhone 3G S?Is it worth getting?

Sorry to hear about your loss, I know I am new to the forum but if you don't mind some advice? A mate of mine he sent an eulogy for his dad's funeral, he couldn't afford to go over either. Maybe you could write it and someone could read it on your behalf.Hope things pick up for you :)

I have a friend who is from Argentina and I will ask her advice, but from memory there are a few cites that you should just stay out of.As someone mentioned learn Spanish, it will endear you to the locals and make life easy. My understanding is most of the kidnappings (i.e. Bogata) are of rich...
