    Avianca "Lifemiles" - Questions and Discussion

    Hi everyone, If I'm using the screenshot method, do I need to have the full balance of miles, or can I still also use the buy-up? Cheers

    Hilton Honors Macquarie Platinum Card Discontinued

    Hi All, Looks like the Hilton card has been discontinued. What's the typical experience in the situation for existing holders? I presume we'll eventually get migrated over to their standard platinum card eventually. What's everyone's best free night redemption? I managed a night in the Conrad...

    Booking AA Domestic First with QF Points as a Business Award

    Hi All, All of the First inventory has been downgraded to U, formerly R. The same availability is searchable available on AA, and they're the same seats Qantas had when they were coded R. Only the 2-class domestic First seats are affected by the change. 3-class domestic is unaffected. I'll...

    Booking AA Domestic First with QF Points as a Business Award

    Ever since AA changed the booking class for their domestic narrowbody First class to business U buckets, they no longer have any inventory on QFF or BA Exec. There seems to be plenty of U ​availability on the AA site but QF can't access it. I thought it might have just been a problem on the QFF...

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

    Random pop up, but it pops up pretty much every time i'm on the QF website. The person on the other end seemed to know a lot more than the punks in the call centre who had hung up on me 3 times out of 4.

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

    Just a note, I had a great experience making changes with the online webchat feature. No wait, and took about 15 minutes. They deducted the 7,000 points through the webchat as well. Needless to say I was gobsmacked that I managed a quick and painless transaction with QF.

    Virgin 'The Business' PER-MEL A330

    Thanks for the pointers everyone. I'm fairly computer literate, but a bit of a social media plebeian. Photos should be public now, cant embed for another 3 posts. Any specific criticism of writing style is welcome!

    Virgin 'The Business' PER-MEL A330

    Hi All, I took this flight a few months ago, and I wrote my first trip report. I wasn't super happy with the result, so I sat on it. I kick off a euro-trip of a lifetime next week, so I'd really appreciate it if you could fire away with some feedback for the below trip report. Hopefully I can...

    Reduction in Transfer Rates for Citibusiness Gold

    We did it! I wish I complained for some free points instead of blasting them on social media. All's well that ends well!

    re: "oneworld" award (140K/280K/420K) Planning - The Definitive Thread Hi everyone. I remember reading that you could book this award 1 bite at a time, due to lack of award availability. ie. book an award flight for LHR-MEL, take the flight. Afterwards you could arrange the rest of your RTW...

    Looks like this ones over. I had a look and could see $500 EK "J" fares direct though. No SCs though.
