YR (bottom left) is also ~$500 different. Edit: actually both numbers are exactly $511.20 different. Not sure of the significance here.

I got told by VA 30 days from the statement which shows the bonus points from the issuer.

Might be more of a fight club situation given it is not supposed to apply to Aus cardholders anyway.

I also have new Temple & Webster, Ergoflex and Adidas offers on my Plat today (nothing to write home about sadly).

You can get kicked ooot of the country for saying that, eh.

I am looking at something similar, but from reading this thread I believe if you go through AC/Aeroplan (and keep the card open and pay annual fee again next year) you get 50K/*G status to the end of the calendar year in which your status expires - so should be end of 2025?

Anyone who did this, is your Hertz account actually showing the new status yet? I did it more than 72 hours ago and status hasn't changed from normal 5 star.

Damn I was probably lucky I didn't get arrested in the US about 18 months ago! I returned a Hertz car (on time) to a hotel/convention centre parking lot in Orlando where they had a rental counter and did a key drop as counter was closed that day before flying up to DC. Then noticed the next...

UA also flys SYD<->IAH, but it is seasonal and finishes in late March so you may be able to just catch it there? Gets you closer to the east coast and a ~2.5hr flight in Y is a lot better than a ~5hr one IMHO if it comes to that.

I am PC and got double points as well.

Assuming this is as simple as it sounds, anyone got the US link?

Does anyone have experience with booking the free flight and then cancelling the card prior to the flight?

If you have no luck on the phone, you could try contacting QF via their Facebook Messenger chat. Once you manage to bypass the bot, they are quite helpful (albeit somewhat slow due to timezone differences - they seem to be South Africa-based). I am NB but managed to get SYD-CBR flights added...

That is a Seats.Aero search. You will need a paid account to search more than 3 months out.

Assume those would be the new CR+ which are supposed to be released today? Edit: actually may have been a CR dump as well??

Looks like a VS benefit (see here). For Amex Plat you don't get passes, you just show your boarding pass and card.

Another data point: Plat Charge, had the card for 2 years with maybe $3-4k spend per month, annual fee charged last week. Called around 3pm AEDT today, sounded like it was answered in the Philippines. Selected 'Card cancellations' from the voice menu, and advised operator I wanted to cancel...

Did you need to do anything special to get this? I have had the NAB Qantas card for about 2 months and received the bonus points, and thinking of changing it over to the Rewards card because of the above changes (and potentially getting the bonus Rewards points). Do you mean for the QF points...

Would there be much of a difference??

For this issue, just say 'I want to book a reward flight' or 'I want to add flights to an existing booking'. You don't need the phone agent to know what an OWA is, as the system does, and it will automatically apply the cap if the booking meets the criteria. To be fair though, a lot of those...
