Argh :(.... always get caught by the AEST clause after the fact. Will I never learn that living in Perth means booking on 5/2/2018 does not equal booking on 5/2/2018. No double SCs for me this year I believe.

When's the retirement planned for Cove? Are you going to stop the flights and go for a camper van?

Melbourne Storm flying Melbourne to Sydney couple weeks back... then my bubby girl said hi repeatedly, played peek-a-boo, flirted, smiled, laughed and shared her sultanas with a very patient Ian Thorpe and an amused Grant Denyer sitting behind us from Sydney to Melbourne a few days later.

Must say we did love the onboard showers in Emirates first when we headed to NZ

Just hit 1060 SCs and logged on to Qantas online and got a lovely message saying I've re qualified for Platinum for next year. Didn't even have to ring through as Princess Fiona suggested. Thanks Qantas and thanks Red Roo. Was a nice surprise!

Neil Perry last Thursday evening Melb-Syd, didn't eat plane food...

We had this exact issue. Bub was not born yet when all booked had 2 x paid business flights and 1x points classic award J flight. Definitely had to wait till Bub born and date and name could be confirmed. If went on paid J with first upgrade then had to pay 10% of ticket at date of addition (ie...

I don't have that much... but I also don't drink ;)

Thanks Everyone, Looks like I've made the SC's I'll need (as long as no hiccups) with a combination of a 3 convoluted return trips in J classic reward with SC rewards offer to and from Perth gaining 360 SCs. Had points available to use that will be made up again fairly easily. Plus first...

Thanks for that tip Princess Fiona... Good to know!

Help needed am a Perthite, have flown much less this year due to new bub so now 620 SCs short of WP for Jun 30 cut off. Am due to travel regular domestic & international following year though so would like to retain WP if possible. Need cheapest possibility with ability to travel 2-3 more trips...

Watched it from free upgrade at Sofitel. Sick bubba... so bliss was nice as was comp teddy for her! Purchase club lounge for r&r and hubby birthday. Glad we did cause haven't left hotel due to bubby blues!

Starting a stay at Pullman International Cairns have become platinum recently and have received first complimentary upgrade to Executive Suite 16th floor for 5 nights! Just bliss... thank you Accor for the 5 star service. Will definitely stay with Accor again. Wonderful experience.

Is a bubby welcome? Would be coming fr PER with no baby sitter. Mr C good for party antics though always a laugh

Oh wow. Is a bubby welcome on board? Would be coming from Perth with no baby sitter.

I had some great service with WP1 although I haven't qualified again this year :(. Free tix to a few events. Personal escort through airport (brilliant when myself and my family had 10 bags weighing 25 - 30kg each). Got all requested upgrades. Was able to change a non-flex fare at the last...

Ugh.... I've got some cards that are going to require these, this thread has just informed me that Investec is rebranded Citibank! YUK :(

Hi Serfty yes I would agree with this but we also pay for those extra long flights & additionals SCs for less overall reward versus our Eastern States counterparts.
