I have to travel to SYD from ADL Dec 8 return Dec 22. Fixed dates. Comparing Jetstar, Virgin and Qantas, oddly Qantas was cheapest (for two people) at $668 (as no charge for 23kg luggage each). Does anyone here think: book this now or wait for a special? Any suggestions? Ta.

Been awhile since I last came here and my how things have changed. I have 90,000 QFF points and am debating which CommBank card to apply for. The dual Gold Amex + Mastercard for Qantas looks ok. But then Woolworths Everyday Rewards beckons (but 8,000 points promotion ended on Oct 10th). Then...

I'm looking for a hotel in Osaka. There is the Nikko at the airport but can anyone recommend one in the middle of Osaka within walking distance to shopping/restaurants and a railway station (JR rail)? A good breakfast service is nice too. Ta, R.

I have a Qantas FF card and like others earn points but what is the actual card used for? Isn't crediting of extra points with bonus partners automatic anyway when a VISA card is used? If not, do I flash the Qantas FF card? Ta, R.

I'm a bit disappointed with my bog standard Commonweath Bank VISA as today I asked why CBA I wasn't getting any more points and was informed I'd hit the limit and they offered me the Gold as a replacement. However the Gold isn't too good - only 1 point for every $1.50 spent. So I started looking...

A friend needs to get to Rome (or Florence) from Adelaide such that he is there for one continuous month and it includes the last week of August 2008. In the past he has paid a great deal for the return tickets for him and his wife. This year I wondered if I or perhaps one of us can find a...

I'm thinking of transferring from a CommBank VISA to the AMEX Qantas Rewards Maximiser card. The main attraction is the 1.5 points per dollar spent as it's only 0.5 points with the CommBank. Can anyone tell me if I keep my frequent flyer points? I would assume so as these have all been...

Hi all, I have the task of booking a flight for ADL-SYD Dec 19 AM and return Dec 28 PM. I tried Bestflights.com.au but wondered if any better options or will there be a sale coming up? (Sales seem a bit tricky as I never seem to be able to find the $1 flights or get them when I search - any...

Well I applied for the Citibank and Qantas Amex cards and was rejected for both. Income $50-60K (work and business), no house but share portfolio. Renting. Perfect credit history. Single woman. Can anyone suggest why I was rejected? They don't give reasons. Should I write back to them? RR

Whilst in Beijing (enroute to Sydney) on Dec 4, QF 192 was delayed for four hours due to a "flight control problem". By then it was 2am and I wound up going to a hotel, finally getting into the room at 5am. Departure next day was at 3.30pm, they fixed the aircraft apparently. Can anyone tell...
