Thanks for answering that! I’m happy to pay for advantage award seats if it means I get an award booking. Singapore airline it is!

Just wanted to give a shoutout to the HSBC customer service team. I forgot to put a large transaction through the card on the last business day before my card renewed, subsequently it was showing up as a pending transaction and didn't clear until after the renewal date which brought me back to...

I made a reward booking for a return trip Melb to Syd during the DSC period, but now thinking to cancel one leg of the flight and pay for it due to change of plans and no availability for reward seats, aside from a 6:30am flight which is a bit too early for me 😅 Is there a way to still be...

Transit times a little too long in HKG at 5.5hrs and arrives into Taipei past midnight.

Yeah i reckon i will book the China Air one. Last time I flew with Qantas then connecting with China Air - the Qantas staff didn't question my additional allowance, but on the way back from Taipei, I had to pay an excess fee. Luckily this time I'm flying back home with Singapore Air so will take...

About to book a flight flying from Melbourne to Taipei, but via Hong Kong with Qantas (for the DSC of course!). My 2nd leg from Hong Kong to Taipei can be either with EVA Air or China Air. None are Oneworld Members - can someone confirm if I still can take on extra baggage based on being a...

Do I get my QF Gold baggage allowance benefits if I'm flying Qantas Melbourne to HKG and then HKG to Taipei via EVA Air? I'm looking to book on the Qantas website as one trip, and I am assuming the baggage will be automatically transferred onto the 2nd leg.

haha! it was actually her who thought the 5 nights in the Maldives might get boring. 5 nights seemed to me like the sweet spot for value since hotel award bookings offer 5th night free, and I have plenty of points to use. Perhaps i'll look for some day trips out of Dubai city.

I had an issue with receiving my bonus Hilton points. Contacted my RM and got them chasing it up - took around 6 weeks to finally get it. Apparently an issue on Hilton's end.

Wow thanks for sharing this - I had no idea! I transferred 600k amex points to my hilton on 31/8 with the 30% bonus, still yet to receive them.

Hey guys, First time user to book Singapore airlines redemption flights and need to understand the go with waitlist flights. Looking to book return flights in business class: MEL - SIN 1 day stopover - Milan. Currently there is availability for all legs in the Saver category, however I'd...

Update, all passengers have been disembarked and move onto a different plane for a 9:10pm departure, 2 hours later. A full a330 flight...going to fun for ground staff.

Qantas QF487 SYD-MEL supposed to depart 7pm. Boarded at 7.30pm. Still on tarmac at 8.07pm due to issue with lighting system being worked on by engineers. Captain advised it is problematic and will advise further updates.

Ive just made a booking to Sapporo, but will be flying MEL - TPE via China Airlines (their A350 business class is excellent) to spend time with family, and then have booked flights to Sapporo with JAL. Plenty of reward bookings to Taiwan in J, and you can redeem with qantas points
