    SQ Tips, Trips and Tales

    How did this work? Did they put the tags on and just leave it behind the desk and then send it down to conveyor when the 3hrs clicked over? Or were the tags not possible and they just put them on later in your absence?

    SQ Tips, Trips and Tales

    Apologies if this has been asked previously but how strict are SQ on bag drop opening 3hrs before departure at SYD? Later in the year I am on SQ202 departing 6:45am & the other two NoNames are on SQ212 departing 9:05am. Will there be any issues if they come and drop bags at the same time as me...

    Award booking refund processing times

    Count me “gotched” then on count 1. 😂 Oh well, I’m sure it will be worth it to avoid the whinges from the other NoNames when rushing through a 1hr transit in Calgary. YUL-YVR non-stop on AC will suit them much better. 😂 EDIT: maybe I will argue on the basis that the information I was given...

    Award booking refund processing times

    Perfect! Is this going to be a case of I cancel online and get charged and then I will have to chase them up? EDIT: Let’s find out! 😂

    Award booking refund processing times

    I’m sure this has been answered elsewhere before and that there is likely a better topic for this question so apologies from the outset. Made an award booking in error a few hours ago. Any chance this can be cancelled and have the 6,000pt cancellation fee waved? Assuming it’s a no.

    Card Promotions New ANZ Frequent Flyer Black 110,000 points & $100 back

    A further data point: Met the $5k spend requirement in the 1st statement period. I’m about 10 days into the 2nd statement and I notice the 100k bonus pts has shown up to be transferred at the end of the period. Cash back yet to appear.

    Can't leave Melbourne Airport During transit??? [DOH-MEL-ADL vv]

    Maybe so but I’m unsure how any security office could lawfully force someone to fly to a destination against their will. I’d be fairly confident they can’t and won’t do anything to stop someone who insists on leaving at MEL. 1713433484 100%. Maybe some issue with the airline in the future but...

    Can't leave Melbourne Airport During transit??? [DOH-MEL-ADL vv]

    They can try to direct you anywhere they like but good luck physically stopping someone leaving if that’s what they choose to do.

    Seat poacher

    We had a SYD-BNE sector as the last flight of our Nth America trip at the start of last year. Had booked 3A, 3C & 3D for the three of us to be next to each other in J. NoName Jnr & I got on first to find a woman and her son in 3D & 3F. Told her she was in Mrs NoName’s seat to which she pointed...

    SQ Tips, Trips and Tales

    Everything SIN-NYC was waitlisted, saver, advantage, SQ26 + the 2 non-stops. It’s Mrs NoName + NoName Jnr on this route (I’m going via HND on JL) so the non-stops weren’t really an option. By herself they would be ok but with the 11 year old would be a nightmare as he can often get motion...

    SQ Tips, Trips and Tales

    Yep. We were planning to stopover to see Mrs NoName’s family anyway so worked out well. Advantage is only 10k miles more than breaking it up into 2 saver bookings.

    SQ Tips, Trips and Tales

    Not sure if this is a regular occurrence but I will give my experience with exactly this route when booking in January. We are off to JFK with a few nights stop in SIN on the way just before Xmas. Dates came up and no issue SYD-SIN but SIN-JFK waitlisted. Took what I could and literally half an...

    Qantas rolls out Classic Plus Flight Rewards

    Just booked 2x LAX-BNE in J for mid/late January. Had tried unsuccessfully to have these released for me by a WP a couple of times previously. Good result.

    Card Promotions New ANZ Frequent Flyer Black 110,000 points & $100 back

    Need more info than the above (pre-edit) to be able to say for sure but provided not a crazy amount of existing credit I doubt it will an issue. I was approved for this a month ago and it was straight forward. This is the 6th time I’ve held this specific card in the last 10 years. Have also held...

    Card Promotions NAB Rewards Platinum Credit Card: 60,000 Bonus Velocity Points with $1,000 Spend in 60 Days, $95 Annual Fee

    How long after meeting the $1k spend criteria did you receive the bonus points? The screen shots I have from when I signed up for this show the bonus offer for this card was the same as for the signature card. Only difference between the two mentioned is the required spend and the annual fee. I...

    "... we'll shortly announce a major investment to improve our Frequent Flyer program"

    I don’t quite understand all the speculation and excitement over this. Isn’t this essentially just introducing an option that functions the same way as points + pay but slightly less of a rip off? Or have I missed something completely?
