Can't remember (threw it out) but I was immediately approved for a card with another lender so it wasn't serviceability. This is me. These card companies want problem spenders to make money off. But us frequent flyers are much too organised.

I received a letter in mail saying I was rejected citing my credit check. I did my own credit history check and it is excellent. My last Amex was about two years ago and I think I've only had two Amex cards in my whole life. It's pretty clear what's happening hear. Amex are clamping down on...

My Payall was declined. No explanation as to why. It has been running flawlessly up until now.

I saw that too, but I'm wondering if Citibank has just been lazy and hasn't updated their website?

I had a look online and it seems that refunded points can take 2-3 months to be depositied. I think what you describe probably won't work unless you have enough points for both tickets.

Do you need to have enough points for both the advange plus the saver? Or when the saver clears can you cancel the advantage booking and use those points for the saver?

Right, thanks for clarifying. I wonder why the BNE>SIN is waitlisted in July?

I've been inspecting the availability because I was thinking about transferring some points across and I've noticed the same thing. I couldn't find any non-flex business flights between europe and australia. I hope this is temporary because otherwise it's a huge devaluation.

Yep that makes sense. When do you think the blanket waitlist for high season will end? I'm flying back in early august so hoping to book a flight around then

Anyone know what blackout dates Krisflyer runs for premium redemptions Europe->Australia? I've been checking and Krisflyer seems to have a blanket waitlist running from June 26 2024. I imagine that's europe high season?

I'm late to the party but I've been wondering why Qatar has been unavailable on QFF until I stumbled upon this thread. This three-day nonsense is unbelievable. I'm surprised these carriers can't patch things up and work together.

Ahh ok. I was thinking a pair of D+G might be good if we want to talk.

Ohh seat selection. I'm travelling on the A350 in J with a family member. What do you think are the best seats for us? I was thinking two aisle seats

No, I booked a through service with connecting flights. Perhaps the flights you were looking at had fare rules that didn't permit a same-day arrival and departure (transit)?

Just redeemed some flights BNE->LHR next year with China Airlines. Keen to experience the A350

Quick data point: I was trying to get a J flight from Europe to east coast Australia. None of my FRA/MUC/AMS/CPH - SIN - SYD/BNE/MEL J waitlists cleared in time before auto cancellation last week (had waitlisted since Feb). I would have had almost 50 waitlists for flights this week or next.

I like the wings and more legroom but not sold on the low phone ledge. It would be better if there was a way to mount these devices up higher in front of the IFE. Lack of A/C charging is interesting, I am fully on board with USB-C and it will be much easier carrying just the cable than the A/C...

I've noticed the same thing with the boomer crowd on Facebook posting their terrible redemptions or worse yet, buying top-up points... I've had arguments explaining why certain redemptions are a waste of money (Qantas Marketplace, Emirates, Points + Pay etc). But there are always people who will...

I've found none. Maybe Singapore hasn't released any reward space with the covid travel boom?

I know I am a little late to the party but I am shocked. Availability has been so terrible lately that I only just noticed these ridiculous surcharges. Who the hell is going to pay ~$3600 in taxes and a quarter million points for a return business class fare between Australia and Europe? You'd...
