    International Long Weekend Suggestions

    Thanks for the suggestions I live in Adelaide at the moment. I like to travel solo and don't like the resorts/tropical island destinations. I much prefer to experience the culture of a new country/city. At the moment I'm looking at Kuching and Pontianak. New Zealand is a great suggestion but...

    Adelaide to London

    I'm pretty much limited to Dubai/Singapore (maybe KL). My flights are restrictive (Overnight 30th August, Return 7th) because wasting 1-2 days annual leave costs me a few hundred. Which I would rather put into paying more for the flight.

    Macquarie Visa Plat - Fee Free 1st yr + 25k Qantas Pts for $5000 spend

    I got a Gold card in the mail instead of the platinum because I didn't meet the requirements. Cancelled the card. Won't sign up with Macquarie I reckon. It's unprofessional to just give a card that I didn't even sign up for without informing me first. I'm hoping to sign up for another card...

    Best time to Book Xmas/NYE Travel

    Hey guys, I was looking at flying from Adelaide/Melbourne to New York/Toronto during the xmas/new year's holiday. When is the best time to book for this period? I'm guessing prices will just steadily increase every month. Is there a cut-off period for when I should have booked Xmas travel?

    Comprehensive Itinerary Planner

    No problem, I'm surprised there aren't more apps like this that can sync with Facebook and Android. I thought Tripit would have ventured down this route ages ago. I think the key factor is the ability to incorporate facebook so it provides updates and then to be able to sync that with Android...
