    Joining IC Ambassador vs Reedeming points

    So the IHG website says that you can join IC Ambassador for 32000 points https://www.ihg.com/intercontinental/hotels/gb/en/ambassador/faqs so:- This is cheaper than a 'reward' night (typically 50K in Aus) - so if I'm planned a 2 night stay and one night is paid the other a reward night...

    Qantas Platinum One experiences?

    Made it to P1 a few weeks back. Called the P1 team to ask for reward seats to be relesaed (none showing on line when trying to book), they were super helpful, and next day, seats available - very happy. Was a little suprised when I received a Platinum pack (card and tags) a week after reaching...

    Cut off for check-in not being honoured

    I've changed flights at 25 mins before - even the lady at check in said that I should be able to do this at the start of this week.... but the gate blocked it, and the flight hadn't even started boarding.

    Cut off for check-in not being honoured

    So by that reasoning, if all pax had checked in (say) 3 hours before a flight, and someone tried to change to that flight at 2hr 50, they would be refused? For situations like this this is why we pay extra for fully flex.

    Cut off for check-in not being honoured

    Fully flex = ability to change flight WP (and other status) = ability to check in at 20 mins - no status =30 mins. All confirmed by check in lady

    Cut off for check-in not being honoured

    Our flights are booked through an agent, and changes can't be made at kiosks or online, only at a desk (I have no idea why.....) If I would have gone to the gate, the time in security would have had me 'too late' i.e. within 20 mins.

    Cut off for check-in not being honoured

    The flights hadn't even started boarding - both instances. I didnt ask first time, but the second time the check in agent said that I was eligable to be on the flight (due to my fully flex, and WP status) but the gate staff wouldnt allow. I have changed flights with 25mins to go on many...
