    Massive improvement, food still stodgy though in my opinion.

    Where's the best Exec lounge in Oz?

    The Hilton Cairns is OK. As a diamond I have always received my benefits as described and been upgraded to the executive floor usually with a note and a gift from management. I have never had a spa room or suite. The executive lounge in my experience has been average but all the staff I have...

    ACMA crackdown on Melbourne taxi drivers with GPS jammers

    I've turned to chauffeur service to and from the airport in Melbourne. $60 in a taxi or $75 by chauffeur. For the extra I get a clean car, clean driver, always on time, no waiting in a queue at the airport, luggage taken for me. Why would I bother with a taxi?

    What happened to complimentary upgrades

    Sorry MarkD, comment wasn't directed at you. Just thought it was amusing that a someone complained in another thread about people getting something for nothing then came into this thread and wanted something for nothing themselves. Anyway, probably unnecessary.

    Shouldn't you be happy with getting the SC you paid for? Or does it only apply when others get a little bit of gravy for free?

    I never recall seeing them on My Benefits page. The number in Velocity also doesn't show up. Hopefully will not be an issue when booking flights.

    Maintain Status Offers Plat/Gold Silver (Two return flights or other)‏

    There is no such thing as loyalty in airline/hotel programs. Raging against corporations giving undeserving people freebies will only make you bitter.

    Lion Air crash in Bali?

    I guess they wanted to go straight to the beach for a swim. Pilots took it literally.

    AMEX platinum 80000 points

    Wow, 102K points... The 80000 will be enough top up for me and the OH to fly QF J to Europe though.

    How do Hilton treat you as an Elite?

    Been here a dozen times in the last twelve months as a diamond member, never had a suite or spa room. No complaints about the service either though.

    Me too, but that is my nature. I'm quiet in real life and this is reflected in all the forums I frequent.
