    Qantas Staff Incompetence - Ticketed 2 adults and not infant, leading to denied boarding

    Had the same thing happen with 1/2 LATAM bookings this year - they were able to ticket the infant at check-in however (for a fee!)

    Obtaining a visa for Chile

    Received transit visa about 24 hours before check in closed for a flight to SCL last week. Applied about 6 weeks prior in Melbourne, not an experience I'd want to repeat.

    Points upgrade if nominating Velocity

    I had to change the booking to use my KF number to process the upgrade (before that the upgrade with points option was greyed out) and then change it back to the velocity number afterwards. Flight is next week but Singapore Airlines call centre said it could be done

    The Explorer Credit Card (New AMEX Card!)

    I got this when applying for WBC Black AMEX (already hold Explorer and Platinum Edge). AMEX didn't seem to know what the issue was but claimed they would request a manual review I haven't heard anything in the 10 days since

    Looking back into MEL-SCL to start my RTW booking for July next year and it seems i have two options MEL-AKL-SCL with the AKL-SCL leg in LATAM economy MEL-SYD-SCL with the SYD-SCL leg in Qantas premium economy The latter would probably be preferable but for some reason Qantas is giving me...

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

    Classic rewards - there is a few days of availability that week for SYD-SCL (Currently Gold for what it's worth). Award was correctly priced as 280k. I'll follow up with Qantas if nothing looks egregiously wrong with the route

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

    Does anyone have any insight on availability to SCL? Ideally from Melbourne and starting to look from May/June 2019 I'm seeing availability SYD-AKL-SCL (and frustratingly SYD-MEL-AKL-SCL) but nothing for MEL-SCL or MEL-AKL-SCL route I'm looking at is the below: syd-akl-scl scl-mad waw-doh...

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

    Hoping someone can confirm that a surface sector is counted as a transit rather than a stopover? ie. if I was to fly into WAW and out of FRA is this considered one of the 5 stopovers or just a transit?

    No more complimentary flight for NEW AMEX Edge card

    Based in melbourne I found the value of the flight pretty dubious at best - the route I regularly fly is only 7800 VFF + ~$17 in tax each way, much more flexible to just book the same fares this way Does anyone know if the credit for the edge can be used in the same booking as the credit for...

    The Explorer Credit Card (New AMEX Card!)

    Strangely when I follow my referral link it only shows Platinum Edge as available. Platinum Edge is now shown as having travel credit rather than a return flight
