    Amex Platinum Charge: 200,000 Bonus Membership Rewards Points until 9 April 2024

    280k or 200k? Shows up as 200k when I click - the 275k links are still active though.

    Best wines to cellar <$50

    Without knowing your specific preferences or style, I'm just rattling based off what I would buy: - Setiono Syrah - Wynn's BL - Vanguardist Grenache - Dappled Chard (I know you didn't ask for a white, but *shrugs*) they also do Syrah. - Tyrrell's NVC - Serrat (any you can get?) I do think...

    Yes, but it's a bit late now...

    Amex Platinum Charge: 200,000 Bonus Membership Rewards Points until 9 April 2024

    Thought I'd try my luck given our points bank is running down - so just popping down a 275k referral link: Platinum Charge

    $200 "Dining credit" towards a list of Global Restaurants

    We haven't spent less, but I wouldn't believe so.

    "oneworld" award (132.4K/249.6K/318K/455K) Planning - The Definitive Thread

    Just to close the loop on here, @madrooster very graciously worked their magic and managed to figure out how to sort out my PNR that multiple multiple calls, as well as emails to the ticketing team could not resolve. All flights now locked in for our 318k trip, including some politely...

    Qualifying stays without checking-in?

    Perfect, just what I needed to hear - will look up 'mattress runs' now! Wish I thought about/looked into this last year, was 1 night short of a suite upgrade.

    Qualifying stays without checking-in?

    Thanks both, clearly a silly question on my end, but thought I'd check!

    Qualifying stays without checking-in?

    Just wondering if anyone knows whether you still receive qualifying stays if you book non-refundable bookings, but don't show up/check-in? We will potentially be staying at a lot of ICs if a trip goes ahead later this year, so would be keen to gain lounge access but we wouldn't get to 40...

    Card Promotions AmEx Platinum Card: 325,000 Bonus Points (Spend $5000 in 3 Months), $450 Travel Credit, $400 Dining Credit, $1450 Annual Fee

    Ah, misunderstood - it's targeted, so you are stuck with the 200k as far as I am aware.

    Chrome works on my end, just tried in incognito mode with my better half's link.

    "oneworld" award (132.4K/249.6K/318K/455K) Planning - The Definitive Thread

    I'm going to die inside if it is because Seoul defaults to ICN... but I've repeated GMP a zillion times now and HND 😵

    "oneworld" award (132.4K/249.6K/318K/455K) Planning - The Definitive Thread

    No it doesn't, it's 3 days between either side (entry/exit). The sector HND to GMP shows as available irrespective of the sector I add before it. So it doesn't seem like a divorced flight? Anyway thanks all for the help, think I'll just have to book the flight separately. At least the rest...

    "oneworld" award (132.4K/249.6K/318K/455K) Planning - The Definitive Thread

    Does this makes sense to anyone or here or can someone explain it to me? So my interpretation of the above is that, there are X amount of reward availability in a given market. The rationale being provided is that in my originating market (aka Australia) the relevant award has already been...

    "oneworld" award (132.4K/249.6K/318K/455K) Planning - The Definitive Thread

    Will keep trying I guess if it's just an agent issue, but after 4 separate ones it seems more like a system error. Guess there is nothing else to be done. I did look for commercial fares and have set a google flight tracker for it, fares seem closer to $700 on J though. I was hoping by...

    "oneworld" award (132.4K/249.6K/318K/455K) Planning - The Definitive Thread

    Correct CX on two legs (HKG > CDG) and (ICN > HKG > SYD) - sounds like I'll just need to cough up the extra 60,000. However, on our honeymoon trip we did have to change our initial itinerary due to booking issues - the CX award seats didn't disappear (not sure if lucky or if because the agent...
