    Amex "I'm going to cancel my card" - bonus points given thread.

    Is there a list of associations offer the discount? It might be both but definitely the later as a minimum. The person I spoke to mentioned specifically that was what the system is offering. Also there was an offer on the Reserve card because I did use it (even though occasionally and low...

    Amex "I'm going to cancel my card" - bonus points given thread.

    Pro tip: For those with an Amex Platinum and Reserve card. Try to get the best offer without mentioning the Platinum Reserve and then ask to cancel that to get a combined offer. I was offered 50k initially when cancelling Amex Platinum. After going through their talk of how great value they...

    Best place to look for MEL-BKK Business Class Redemptions?

    Honestly didn't look into JQ. If we couldn't find anything we would probably just try to book Economy on Thai or Singapore Airlines.

    That's quick! I read the bus ride takes 10 mins and it only comes every 30 mins

    Ok gotcha, that would relieve some stress at least. I'm assuming that we don't have to collect our luggage and check it back in at international. Honestly don't know why Qantas even sell a MEL-HNL flight with such a short layover if it doesn't give enough time to make the connecting flight.

    If we can't get moved to an earlier flight, do you think catching the train would be quicker than the bus?

    Cancelled Again!

    This is concerning, we have a MEL-SYD-HNL flight (2 adults, 1 toddler) on a Friday with only 90 min transit. Will try to go earlier to request an earlier flight but not sure how much earlier we'll need to go. Qantas at the moment don't let you make seat selections to see what seats are...

    Noise Cancelling Headphones for toddler - Bose QC45?

    Hi all, we have an upcoming flight with my 3 yr old. It seems there are very limited kids options with noise cancelling headphones. Has anyone tried Bose QC35/QC45 for their toddler? I have the Sony XM4's now but they are a bit heavier than the QC35s I use to have. Thinking whether it would be...

    Thanks guys will report back how we go. Hoping we do as it doesn't seem like we'll have time for TRS and Duty Free let alone lounge time.

    Thanks I am travelling within those dates :( Interesting, I will definitely try to ask - any tips to increase our chances of an earlier flight? would they normally just do it if they had spare seats?

    We have about an hour but planning to arriving 3-4 hrs earlier in Melbourne with a toddler so was hoping to have more choices. Only flying economy but have AMEX Platinum and Priority Pass (AMEX and Citibank 2 pass). What do you think the best options are if I have any?
