Oops! You're right. I guess what you get with Qantas is not as good as I thought. Guess I'll just buy the cheap tickets on Air NZ and forget about the mileage on this one. Thanks to all for your help. Greg

So I can put it on Virgin Velocity? Anyone know whether you get a reasonable amount of points for doing that? Greg

Thanks for the replies. Agreed that the Air NZ fares to LA are tough to beat, and the premium economy seats are wonderful. I really liked flying with them, actually, it's just too bad you don't get more on the FF side. Cheers. Grge

Hi all, A year ago I flew Air New Zealand roundtrip to LA on a "Smart Saver Economy" fare. This netted me a whopping $38 Airpoints. But I probably need to save up the amount required before I can purchase a ticket, no? I was looking at the same route in June, which is $941. So I'd have to take...

No worries. Thanks to all for the very useful help and advice. It's a funny world, isn't it? Almost seems like gambling to me: the credit card companies are betting that we will end up running up debts and paying a lot of interest, fees, etc., while we are betting that we won't. If we win, we...

Cool, thanks. Is there any general rule as for how long I would have to be without (for example) an ANZ card before applying again and getting the bonus? Or does that very between institutions? Greg

As a follow up to the earlier question, so now I've had my ANZ card for a few months and have scored the big 75K point bonus. I'd like to angle towards another big bonus like that, but as I already have an ANZ card it would seem I couldn't just open another one. Should I close this one now in...

Thanks! Greg

Thanks, I'll watch that. Cheers, Greg

Wow, no kidding. I'll go for the NAB card, then. All these FF points available, it's pretty amazing. Thanks! Greg

Hello all, Apologies if this question has been answered before, as it probably has, but I don't seem to be able to find it. I'm looking to take advantage of some credit card offers to score a bunch of points, and sometimes I see people mention that in order to get one of the big bonuses on an...
