Visitors to Japan are rightly impressed by its excellent trains. But I always thought domestic flying in that country is an interesting experience and often overlooked. Having travelled there many times for 15+ years, I provide my observations based ONLY on personal experience - I don't intend...

Has anyone had this problem? I tried to book a reward seat on Aadvantage. The small cash fee (about $15) needs to be paid so I enter my credit card details. You need to select "billing address" so I try to select Australia. It says I need to make the booking on the AA Australia website. But...

I have read articles by people who like these flights, mainly because of international lounge access and also bigger A330/787 aircraft. What I'm having difficulty with is how do you actually search for them? Is there a search engine where you can filter for this? Or some published list of flights?

Some things that I have experienced in recent years: - 3 star hotel in Sydney that told me they do NO housekeeping for stays less then 4 days. - 5 star hotel in Thailand that failed to replace used coffee mugs or replenish tea bags / coffee sachets. Also, they said linen would be changed every...

Trying to book reward economy seat which is 7,800 points. There are 2 options offered - spend 7,800 points + $34.39 OR 7,800 points + 5,900 points. Although the first option is mentioned, I can't actually select it when booking. Anyone else noticed this?

I noticed that total points are not shown anymore in the activity statement. I find this very annoying. The total is there, but not the total at the time you received points. If I get $100 into my bank account, my bank statement shows the balance at the time I got the money, as well as the...

Can I book a hotel room for a friend (not family) using points on the Qantas Hotels website? I heard Qantas is very strict about this for flights, but I'm not sure about hotel bookings.

I recently flew a short domestic Qantas flight and received 15 EQD's. The ticket price was around USD150 + tax. In order to qualify for Gold status (oneworld ruby) i would need to earn 1,500 EQD's - so can I extrapolate that to mean I would need to spend USD15,000 to reach Gold?? Seems excessive...

The minimum points required for a transfer is 5,000 - does this mean you can transfer any amount over 5,000 or do you need to transfer in "blocks" of 5,000? In other words, if I had 5,123 points can I transfer all of them at once, or just 5,000 leaving 123 in the krisflyer account?

I flew MH recently in N class which unfortunately is not eligible for any Qantas points. I could get about 6,000 Enrich points out of this - but should I even bother claiming the points? I doubt I will be accruing any more Enrich points in the future. Could I do points + pay and get a Qantas...

I bought something online recently through the Velocity Estore and also had my Qantas FF details entered with the store directly. I did actually receive both points !! Now I'm considering the possibility of having the Velocity AND Qantas Estore active in my browser when shopping online - maybe...

With the cost of a one-year Myki around $1,700 I would like to get some credit card points out of this purchase in early 2019. Currently my Amex has the best points earn. I assume that buying at a Metro window/machine would be considered "government spend" (less/no points) so I was wondering if...
