Great thanks. Booked with KrisFlyer Miles and therefore KF FF number so just checking.

Hopping on an old thread, but I have a SIA award flight in Y in July. No status on SIA but VA Gold. Has anyone got into the lounge with VA status on a SIA award flight? Thanks.

As a velocity red, but just switching strategies due to now being able to make use of family pooling, I was considering the Gold for 6 months but hadn't actually got out a spreadsheet to work out whether it would allow retention. Status matching is something I hadn't considered but would be...

Thanks for the post! Not even pregnant yet but was planning a J One World award at 6-9 months if everything went well. You've just made me wonder whether I'm aiming to low...

You can actually do up to I think 16 flight segments, just only 5 stopovers (international transits <24 permitted on top - can't remember the rule for domestic transits). So provided you wan't to stop at all your listed ports, and didn't want to stop at LA it's fine to include (provided it meets...

re: "oneworld" award (140K/280K/420K) Planning - The Definitive Thread I have booked an entire 140k online, however only because I booked when ALL flights were within 12 months. The main reasons to book over the phone are to get access to flights that don't appear on Qantas website, and to make...

re: "oneworld" award (140K/280K/420K) Planning - The Definitive Thread I once flew GUA-MIA-NYC (20 hour transit)-LHR (8 hour transit)-DXB-MEL-BNE once. That was a long haul with everything except GUA-MIA in Y. Only way to get home on a 140k award...

Macquarie is the only bank I've ever been rejected from. Twice. Income > $100,000. Don't get it. Not many cards at the time. Good credit rating. Last time was about 18 months ago so may be good for one more try.

Oh I would just love an AA transfer on a Visa card. 3:2 would be brilliant. Hell, even 2:1 on a Visa I'd take given currently filtering Amex through SPG...

re: "oneworld" award (140K/280K/420K) Planning - The Definitive Thread Technically you can book the whole trip online. I've booked 1 140 completely online, but all the flights have to be available when you want to go. To lock in the flights (particularly the out of Australia flights), you can...

re: "oneworld" award (140K/280K/420K) Planning - The Definitive Thread At a quick look, I'm wondering which OW airline flies Jo'Burg to Dubai? Qatar seems to fly Jo'Burg to Doha, and then I guess onto Dubai to link up with QF in Dubai? or Qatar out of DoHA (but do they offer first class)...

Maybe not so much for others but I just this card for BPay of every bill I could possibly BPay. For me, I think that is the biggest loss. I was recently advised to cancel this card as it puts a big dent in my borrowing capacity and I'm like no way - fee free for life with a 1:1 on QF points...

re: "oneworld" award (140K/280K/420K) Planning - The Definitive Thread So have used the 140k awards twice now in 2003 and 2013 and think they are tops. The first one WAY before I stumbled on AFF just in time for the second trip. 1st trip: MEL-BKK-x LHR-DUB-BCN...LHR-CPT-JNB-xSYD-MEL 2nd trip...
