Mozambique now has an eVisa available online, but it's a bit confusing. https://evisa.gov.mz/createEVisa It asks for Passport Type and the options are P, PA, PB ...... through to PZ, P0 through to P9. The FAQ has zero information! I'm guessing PR as I have an R series passport, but not sure...

Last time I was in JNB I stayed at the Intercontinental Sandton, but that's been rebranded and is no longer part of IHG. I've got a meeting coming up so am back in town and have booked the Hilton Sandton, but just noted this at the bottom of the booking e-mail. What's going on with chain...

I was reading through this and it made me think, how many airlines actually have them anymore? https://www.cio.com/article/1286551/managing-ceo-expectations-is-this-years-priority-no-1.html BA has gotten rid of theirs, I think. They send it out via e-mail once a month. What I didn't notice (but...

My last few entries to the UK my passport hasn't worked at the e-Gate machines. I had a really helpful agent on the weekend who told me the chip doesn't work, basically...

What do you think? Love it or hate it? Hate it for me, I find it less functional and more clicky especially when logged in to Exec Club. It's interesting as I was involved with the UAT on it, or perhaps pre-UAT as they were surveying different ideas. Interesting that what ended up being put in...

In the spirit of the thread by @serfty (Why I'm unlikely to ever "Cruise" (At least on a large ship)), we are/were very much firmly in that camp. However, sometimes needs must and in order to hit my target of visiting 100 countries by the time I hit my next round birthday an opportunity came up...

I say this slightly tongue in cheek, but I just checked in for an upcoming car rental and this made me chuckle. I wonder when that changed from President's Circle (which I have) and Five Star ;)

So, most of these are collected from BIS earning and I want to use them up over the next 3-5 months if possible, perhaps even sooner. The multi partner awards seem to be the best value and would help me get closer from 83 visited countries to 100+, which is my goal before my next goal comes...

Probably a fairly niche question, but hoping maybe someone has some insight. I'm about to kick off the process for getting my UK Citizenship (I've had ILR for a few years now) so I can get my passport. However, this requirement will scupper me every time due to the amount of travel I do...

https://www.qatarairways.com/en-gb/offers/privilege-club-exclusive.html?cid=EMGB246010#terms-and-conditions Any thoughts as to whether this can be booked with your QR PC number and then removed, putting in your preferred OW program number? Full T&C as per website (in case it disappears): Terms...

Received an e-mail from Hilton recently offering a Happy Honors-versary and thought some of the stats were interesting. Not really sure if they're correct as I didn't think I had stayed in HH properties over such a number of countries etc. but interesting if their stats are right. For me... 87...

We've got a trip to Cambodia coming up (via a good J fare to BKK) and looking at the following airlines: Lanmei Airlines out of BKK AirAsia out of DMK Thai VietJet out of BKK AirAsia out of DMK we have flown before (to Myanmar) - decent enough and did the job. Thai VietJet we haven't flown...

If you're flying BA tomorrow you can even stream it for free...

I'm in a bit of a travel planning rut at the moment (it's usually the bit I enjoy the most!) and with life, work etc. having been so busy the past 3 months I lost track of time. We're off to Israel & Jordan in April and I've just started having a look at how we're going to do it. I've read...

After the dodginess of the ordeal we had picking up our car from Budget in Enfidha, Tunisia - today things have gotten even better, the 'check engine' light has come on. The hotel here and I have tried getting through (location is closed now) but the brief call we had, all they said was no it's...

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2022/nov/12/iranian-man-who-lived-in-paris-charles-de-gaulle-airport-for-18-years-dies I'm not sure I've seen the movie actually, so I might need to find somewhere to grab a copy. Interesting that he ended up passing away at the place where it all began.

The usual, simpler/fairer/making it easier for you. Just received the following from IB: Flashback, at Iberia Plus we know that the way people travel is changing, that’s why we’re adapting to evolve with the times. The way you collect Avios on your flights is about to change. Until now, Avios...

I have a few 100k QF miles feeling unloved in my account and was going to use them to fly the folks over at some stage. I haven't looked at QFF in about 10 years or so...... Is QF / QF partner J/F pricing variable these days or is there a standard number of miles I should expect to hit for...

This is the 3rd mid/long-haul trip in a row I've had a bag go missing, I usually don't check a bag but each time had a reason. In a way I found it slightly humorous...... as I thought no big deal, this time they at least knew where it was (JNU, even though we didn't fly through there!) and then...
