I booked through HoteLux (free membership with World MasterCards) using Accor STEP 3rd night free rate at the Manly Pacific last year, received the stated benefits (free breakfast, room upgrade, room credit) and points/nights added to ALL account.

Thanks again - appreciate the help

Thank you :) Just to clarify, are the screenshot rates in SGD or AUD? And is there any way to see which night the Stay Plus complimentary night has been applied to? I'm a lowly Silver member so don't get complimentary breakfast, and might be better off booking 3 nights using the 3rd night free...

Hi all, we (my wife, son and I) are going to Singapore in July and planning to stay at the Fairmont for 4 nights from 4th to 8th July. I've made a booking for a Signature Suite with a 3rd night free promo, and interested to know if there's Stay Plus availability for 1 night on either the 4th or...

Thanks Matt - I'll give them a call before I pay the transfer tax

Hi all, I'm looking to book flights on SQ from PER to SIN in Y next year, and even <330 days out there are flights with 3 Saver award seats available through Krisflyer that are not showing as having any Reward seats available through Velocity. I'm happy to call and sit on hold with Velocity to...

Passes have found a new home - admin please close the thread?

Hi all, hopefully someone can make use of 2 short-dated QF lounge passes, expiring next Thursday 20th July. I’ve benefitted a lot from everyone’s generosity with their expertise on this site over the years, so would like to give a small token back to an established member (but given the short...

Hi all, Does anyone know whether Row 12 on a 737-800 (immediately in front of exit row) reclines normally during the flight? I remember a flight years ago when the seats in front of the exit row were fixed upright for the whole flight, but I think more recently the seats were just locked for...

Thanks everyone for their efforts - Citibank have even added in a bonus! 15,000 Citi Rewards points now converts to 10,001 KF miles :rolleyes: Cheers, Mike

The Velocity Terms and Conditions might be helpful, which suggest that points are "a unit of measurement" and not goods or services (copied below). Cheers, Mike 9. POINTS 9.1 General 9.1.1 Points:(a) do not have any cash value and are not convertible into cash; (b) are solely a unit of...

Thanks :)

Agreed - for the reasons you mentioned I was happy to get it confirmed and rationalised the extra 10k as part of the cost of booking with USDM.

Recently ticketed a couple of USDM award tickets to the US for my wife and I in March/April 2015 - we're flying together on the outbound and returning on different dates (by choice). Outbound PER - SYD (QF J) - NRT (JL F) - ORD (JL F) for 2 pax. Return IAD - DOH - PER (QR J) for my wife, ORD -...

Even better when you use QFF website to find availability and see the points/taxes they would charge for the same flights!

Just ticketed for 2 passengers in September/October: PER-HKG-ORD, CX J ORD-HKG (2 night stopover)-PER, CX J 110k miles each plus $173 ($123 taxes + $50 USDM processing fee). Very happy so far with US Airways move to oneworld :) Cheers, Mike

Very well by the sounds of things! Now to see if I get the double status credits promo as well from Qantas... :D

Good morning, In case anyone is interested, I just received a call from VA informing me of an aircraft change for VA564 PER-SYD this afternoon from A330 to 738. I was booked in J using a complimentary upgrade on Flexi fare, and my wife was on a separate J points booking; VA had initially just...

I don't think there's a minimum length of stay to apply for an ITIN - just need to show that you may need to file a US tax return to claim a tax treaty benefit as a foreign national (which I did by opening a savings account earning a whopping 0.5% interest). Amex needed some proof of address in...
