Prior to COVID, Brisbane was a regular staple in Hawaiian Airlines’ Australian network. Hawaiian, in this article from 2022 said '... we don’t have Melbourne in our sights.’ Do you have a more recent update? https://www.pointhacks.com.au/news/hawaiian-airlines-andrew-stanbury/

Hawaiian's 787 deliveries (n=12) are two years behind schedule. As capacity comes online the BNE/HNL flights may well return.

How long have you held the Amex Ultimate? As a long-term member I reckon churners are getting better rewards than loyal customers.

You could save an OWA stopover by doing an open jaw in Europe and side-tripping via rail, Easyjet or Ryanair

Sorry my bad, I've only ever used it for RTW itineraries and didn't realise it has trans-Atlantic and trans-Pacific hard-coded. Assume the fare value could be estimated via Qantas multi-city?

I track my theoretical points yield for each trip. You can use the One World site to get the retail value of your routing Multi-City Flights: Round The World Airline Tickets - RTW

Have you done this inter-city drive before? Assuming Highway 1 is open when you visit, I'd suggest you must do the 49-Mile Scenic Drive in San Francisco and the astounding Hearst Castle in San SImeon. In the interests of minimising the thread digressing from it's original purpose, feel free to...

I've done a few trips to California & Nevada. LAS/SFO/LAX is over 1,500km and 14 hours of driving; and parking your rental car overnight in San Francisco is pricey. If you have time, fly to SFO and drive down to LAX. If not, there's always a next time...

Some suggestions relating to accommodation. In Vegas, there are many newer hotel options so I trust you have considered these before selecting Bellagio. I always find newer is better. In New York, as an alternative to Midtown have you considered staying in the 'burbs, i.e. the Upper East or...

I recall a discussion some years ago about the cheapest qualifying spend. As a past Qantas Amex Ultimate cardholder who converted to Qantas Amex Premium, the only bonus now on offer is two complimentary Qantas Club invitations. I unexpectedly qualified this year with a $10 transaction, the cost...

I think it may depend on your relationship with the donor and how much knowledge and interest they have in the value of their stash. If you google the topic, frequent flyer points/miles are generally considered to be worth 1-2c. There are certainly ways to get a higher return - my last major...

Here's a recent review that may be of interest. Sorry, I'm not yet permitted to post a link. WWW.nytimes.com/2012/01/19/technology/personaltech/finding-headphones-to-shut-out-the-world-state-of-the-art.html?ref=davidpogue My family travels with Bose QC1, QC15 and Audio Technica ATH-ANC7B. I...

Just did some of your destinations Xmas past. I would suggest SYD-DFW-MCO with Qantas, MCO-BUF with JetBlue, BUF-JFK JetBlue then Washington DC via rail from NYC. DisneyWorld is wonderful in low season - small queues and mild weather. Just back from my third Orlando-in-December trip. The...
