    QANTAS payment options

    I've just booked my first post COVID flight. A return from Perth to Broome on QANTAS, but when it came to pay I could only get the CC option to work. No POLI or BPAY. Was this just some random browser problem?

    Returning hire car to same place... maybe

    We will be returning our hire car to Birmingham UK airport to avoid the different location fee. But I was wondering has anybody offered to return the car to a different location that the hire company nominates. For us anywhere between Bristol and London would be better. Am I dreaming?

    Checking my booking on AA not working

    Mrs Spud and I are heading off on the 23rd and I thought I'd check my bookings which were done by a third party. Cathay and Japan airlines are ok but AA can't find my booking. I'm using the usual 6 character code. Is there anything else I can try? I used mu USDM miles BTW

    One Mile at a Time is PAYING for tickets!!!

    Just read this article on his blog Why Miles Are Becoming Less Important To Me (Sort Of) - One Mile at a Time If I want to keep an eye on cheap tickets at the pointy end of the plane, what's the best way to do that, or am I already doing that here at AFF?

    Can't get out of Perth - Whats the alternative?

    I'm trying to get 2 seats out of Perth to Turkey/Athens in September but without any luck. Does the group think I'd be better off trying Adelaide, Melbourne, Sydney or Brisbane as a start point or Singapore or KL? Perth really is starting to feel like the end of the world :-( Thanks

    Has your e-Statement arrived?

    Looks like mine is AWOL for second month in a row. My wife received hers 2 days ago. I'm concerned as I had points due to expire on the 30th. I've paid the $9.00 but the only way I know to confirm is the date on the e-Statement. I've emailed US Airways so hopefully they get back soon

    FRA transit problem

    On our flight home JFK-FRA-BKK we only received one boarding pass at JFK and were told to go to the transit desk in FRA. We asked ground staff in FRA and they told us where the desk was. Where it was in the DEPARTURE lounge. This meant we had to go through passport control, get the boarding...

    Perth to JFK and back

    Just returned from our second trip using US Airways Dividend Miles. This was a J trip as F availability just wasn't there for the dates we wanted. Routing was PER-BKK-ICN-JFK---FRA-BKK (overnight) PER and cost was 110,000 Dividend Miles because of the weird routing I think. Felt much more...
