    Mix of classic rewards and pay?

    Hi, we are looking at taking the kids to Singapore. I am short 10000 points to take us all using classic rewards. Is it possible to book the two adults using classic rewards and pay for the kids on the same booking? Any way to allow this?

    Accessing Qantas Lounge if on EK flight number

    Probably a quick and easy question for the knowledgable but Google never seems to be as good these days finding out things like this. (Maybe I am not looking hard enough). Can I access the Melbourne Qantas Business Lounge if flying to Singapore on a flight booked with Qantas points through...

    IHG Hotels that recognise status

    IC Melbourne Ambassador (Gold) Booked: Deluxe Room Received: Twin Deluxe Room plus rate reduction. Amenity: Fruit Platter and two free drinks at the bar plus normal ambassador entitlements.

    IC Ambassador worth it?

    Addition to my comment above: Even though I didn't really get upgraded, I was still changed to the twin room which actually better suited the fact I had my Family with me this time plus offered a reduction in price to a really reasonable rate even compared to lower rated hotels. Apart from that...

    International Mess!

    This is all really good information to know. I never knew that if you don't show up for Leg 1 all the rest would be cancelled! It seems stupid that he can't just cancel MEL > BNE for 100% of the cost of the ticket (meaning you get nothing back). It is saving them $ by being able to resell the...

    IHG Hotels that recognise status

    Stayed at CP - Hunter Valley in April, 2016. Gold Elite and was greeted as such. Free Drink was the only perk offered but I did ask for late checkout and was given an extra hour. On a side note, the breakfast was the best I've had in any hotel. Would stay again for sure.

    IHG Rewards or Airline Miles?

    Hi All, I am new to IHG Rewards but got a Gold Tier through Ambassador program. Title says it all. Should I covert to Qantas Points or keep the IHG Rewards?

    Accor Benefit Code / Promo?

    Thanks for the response. After some research I've actually decided to go IHG and pay $200 USD for the Ambassador status. I figured with the free weekend night that almost covers it alone and according to others, the 5000 points you get equates to almost another night so I haven't really 'lost out'.

    Accor Benefit Code / Promo?

    Been researching Hotel Loyalty Programs and was considering Accor (My mum seems to enjoy it but please recommend another if it would be better). I was wondering if anyone had a decent benefit code or knows of a promo going at the moment? Thanks.

    Discussion/Q&A on Best QF Status Run Options

    re: Discussion/Q&A on Best QF Status Run Options Hi All, Long time stalker, first time poster. Coming up to my Qantas Anniversary and I am in need of 220 SCs. Any recommendations for domestic flights that are good bang for buck? Even Australia/NZ/Asia region international flight would be fine.
