    Moving Jetstar flights forward???

    My rentals have a flight from ADL to SYD on the 2nd of August however due to plans changing need to move the flight to the 1st. Jetstar want to hit them up with an $80 fee to change, as much as another cheap flight! From my research our best bet is to duck the higher fee and do it online to...

    Free lunch? More like a cheap eat?

    I've seen these deals and they are truly great in terms of price but they aren't too helpful in terms of FF, are they?

    Free lunch? More like a cheap eat?

    G'day, It's been a while. The main reason my eyes were opened to the possibilities of FF was because of an article I read in the Rolling Stones magazine in late August in 2015, it was about prominent FF mogul Ben Shlappig AKA Lucky. Link here it talks about a 14 year old who quickly learned...

    Earning points under eighteen

    Me being the talkative guy I am, explained all of this to my parents making them very savvy to it all. So unfortunately they will be cashing in those points on petrol for themselves :-|

    Earning points under eighteen

    Yes I do earn money, so you suggest I direct them to a CC (maybe with a good sign up bonus) tell them I'll shell out for the annual fee and then have them spend on it as well as me via supplementary card? And then claim all the points?

    G'day Thank you for all your advice, I am incredibly appreciative however there are a couple things I would like to clarify as with my limited knowledge I didn't understand too well. Firstly, I have the mathematical ability to crunch numbers but (and this is where I sound daft) I don't know...

    Hey! I'm Wil and I'm 16

    Wow that certainly is a lot to think about. I have a few questions that I'd be extremely grateful if anybody could answer: 1. Would it be smarter to chase SCs first to earn more points faster? 2. Is there an easy way to find these indirect but similarly priced routings? Or is truly just intense...

    A bit of humour

    Reminds me of a quote from Samuel L Jackson, he said "I am always frank and earnest with women..... In one city I'm frank and in the other I'm earnest"

    Hey! I'm Wil and I'm 16

    Now I'm afraid that this is where I really sound like the newbie I am, what other reasons are there that I would be taking flights besides that they are cheap? (And obviously for the love of flying)
