Also depends on what your racial ethnicity is - call me sensitive if you want! Wifey and I had J booked in Air Canada SYD-YVR, 15 y/o kiddo had Y. I asked if we can swap, they said yes - NOTE, I didn't even want to swap midway and never asked for it! So wifey and kiddo travelled J and I...

Have been on Plat Charge for ~ 7 years now with an average spend of $175000 but have clocked $300K the last two years - all personal. 2 x international business trips a year, a multitude of domestic flights. Haven't heard a peep! (I have been an amex member since 2009 and have never threatened...

I have been upset with flying to Europe via SQ mainly due to the cost otherwise, it does provide decent coverage: SQ to Germany, Italy, France, Netherlands, Turkey, Spain, UK, Denmark - so you have to hop and skip a bit to any 3rd destination. Book to the closest city (from this map -...

Hi Brains Trust, TIA for your help: I have booked a J (Flex) from MEL to VIE next week. On my return leg from MUC to SIN, my booking shows as confirmed, but I couldn't choose a seat as all seats are greyed out. What are the chances that I will indeed get a seat or am I likely to be booted out?

Hi James, Can you confirm if personal bills to a BSB can be paid using YakPay or Payment Logic?

My understanding was that YakPay and pay.com.au can only be used to pay business expenses and you need to have an ABN to do it. I am hoping to pay a personal expense (building costs) with a credit card, but to the builders BSB/Account Number.

Yes, I did look at that - unfortunately, I do not have any Citi cards - I do have amex and Westpac cards.

Hi brains trust, Apologies if this question has been asked before - I did search here and on google - but I am likely not using the right search terms. I can find heaps of information on business payments, but not personal payments. I am building a house and the builder's invoices all want a...

4 days after this post, I flew J on a QF airbus330! I definitely have to say I enjoyed the experience deeply and I’m deeply grateful to the unknown for the experience. (Have to say QF service was patchy. Will stick to SQ).

You can add the seats in the Spirit of Tasmania to this category!

I have been fortunate enough to fly J (mostly on points, sometimes on cash) the last few years. Recently, in December, we went on a holiday overseas - MEL - KUL - BKK. It was a late decision, so flights were full (we anticipated that flights will be full given first fully open school holiday...

Lounging in SKL. Appears to have constant foot fall but not very crowded. Sorry, I don’t think I can guest anyone (no status), but if you are around, I would love to say ‘hi’!

I just signed up for the Australian (although I never like right wing newspapers), hoping that WSJ may be interesting. I just received "tomorrow's front page today" email. I looked at tomorrow's front page and the stories and their editorial quality. I simply vomited and right now am choking on...

Hi all, After receiving the disappointing news that we were set to loose the AFR subscription, I received an email a couple of days ago that from July, platinum card holders are set to receive a premium subscription offer to The Australian. :( I am not very happy as I hardly read The...

My first ever J experience was on the upper deck of a magnificent 747 MEL-SIN SQ flight on 25th December 2008, on my way overseas to see my newborn daughter, is hands down my best 747 memory. I was the only person on christmas day on the upper deck and I was treated like royalty. Each of the...

Is the thought process - 0.028 cents per QF point (which is pretty good) + a good champagne to boot?

TIA for your advice: At 50% off, is this worth? https://wine.qantas.com/p/Jim-Barry-Cover-Drive-Cabernet-Sauvignon-2017-%2B-6-free-bottles/MIXP725_C
