    JAL J Class Super Saver Earn Rate?

    Used their Live Chat and based it on my unpaid reservation number from KMQ - HND in Class J Special Saver. The ticket booking class according to the agent was 'X'. Based on this table, it should be earning a Business Rate? But yet again it's not in the 'Fights within Japan row'. How reliable...

    JAL J Class Super Saver Earn Rate?

    I did make a reservation without paying for a Class J flight on the Special Saver fare type which gave me a reservation code. I'll either live chat or call JAL tomorrow and see what information they can pull from it. Will keep you up to date. Annoying but it is what it is!

    JAL J Class Super Saver Earn Rate?

    Does anyone know what the earn rate is for a Super Saver J Class ticket on JAL? I've read a few conflicting reports, that a discounted J class earns the same rate as a discounted economy, or that it earns a normal standard rate. Does anyone have experience with a Super Saver J Class fare and...

    New Qantas promos including double status credits (book by 3/9/25; travel 4/9/25 until 22/8/26)

    This DSC is has me in a pickle as my re-qualification is in 31st August. I've already set locked in Gold for this year and next year taking me to August 2027 before i drop down to silver. But the timing of this is making me question should i go big and try to go for WP (Short of 680SC) which...

    AccorPlus China

    Hey, just wanted to confirm that ALL China still works from the sounds of it. I saw some T&Cs that only a maximum of 30 nights can ever be accredited to an account, but looks like you got yours done. What was the processes like, first time ALL China as well.

    Credit Card Offers HSBC Star Alliance Credit Card: Fast-Track to Star Alliance Gold Status

    Sounds like a good meta would be get or maintain Krisflyer Gold (incl Velocity Benefits) and transfer points to Aeroplan for bookings and potentially reference in your Krisflyer Gold Account for bookings made via Aeroplan? Any potential pitfalls to this?

    Credit Card Offers HSBC Star Alliance Credit Card: Fast-Track to Star Alliance Gold Status

    I actually had a question on this. How do aeroplan points compare to krisflyer miles on a cost basis + taxes? Because sometimes i've found better value through velocity points on many intra-asia legs than i would have on Krisflyer (where available).

    ALL Accor+ Explorer Membership Discussion

    Still a little confused based on the comments and T&Cs so far. So is it confirmed or to be confirmed that those who've renewed before September and have received their 20 night bonus would get an additional 30 nights based from October 1? I'm currently Gold and I renewed in June and received...

    Qantas' Impending Change to Tokyo Flight Schedule

    I mean i wonder if there's a justified use-case to have the SYD/MEL/BNE to HND flights with an addition of the a380 to Narita? Or based on current loads, that current QF/JQ flights meet the current high-demand for Japan, especially over the winter season and an a380 would be overkill?

    Qantas' Impending Change to Tokyo Flight Schedule

    Would an a380 on a SYD - NRT route work? Or even seasonal NRT routes utilising the a380?

    Qantas DSC October 2024 Offer - book by 31/10/24 & fly 1/11/24-19/10/25

    Just confirming, keeping the PNR implies just changing the flights rather than cancelling and rebooking? Ive actually never changed flights, I've always just cancelled them or followed through 😂

    Qantas DSC October 2024 Offer - book by 31/10/24 & fly 1/11/24-19/10/25

    This has likely been asked, but honestly the search feature hasn't worked in my favour today. With the Oct DSC, what were the rules and experiences of people who've had to change or move their flights? I might have to shift a flight and wondering if I'll still be able to get the DSC? The flight...

    Credit Card Offers HSBC Star Alliance Credit Card: Fast-Track to Star Alliance Gold Status

    Just wondering for those who are just shy of the $60k to retain their Gold. What did you all do to tick yourself over? My review date is in November, but I did another quick calculation again and I'm about $12K under. I was thinking about getting a few refundable airfares that I can refund...

    Qantas double status credits: Register & book between 12-18 March 2025

    Does anyone know or have experience booking a rewards seat during the DSC promo and being PC sometime after booking and still getting the DSC? Just wondering if we need to be a PC member at the time of booking or at the time of flying? Can't find anything definitive other than: "... if the...

    Business Class meal in economy?

    Hey AFF! No this isn't me requesting a business class meal. But i thought i'd ask a question to the collective brain that is AFF. Today I noticed a man sitting next to me in row 3 being offered a business class meal. I was in awe, and mind you i'm Plat as well and never been or have seen other...

    Status Credit Earn Before and After Membership Review Date

    Hey AFF, Just a question in conjunction with the DSC offer. For context my Membership year ends in August. If I attain Gold within the next few months due to the DSC which will last me till August 2026 from my understanding. If I earn DSC in October 2025 (after my August expiry), will my earn...

    Major changes to Velocity Frequent Flyer announced 17/10/24

    I do plan my flights on VA metal around the DSC times tbh on J. So i am guilty of the Status run. So lets say QF and VA did a DSC, i'd imagine doing a flight with QF would provide a better $/SC ratio, depending on the destination. I may be wrong tho, happy to be corrected! But based on my...

    Major changes to Velocity Frequent Flyer announced 17/10/24

    Seems like a mixed bag of opinions in this thread. While some additions were great and understandable, i'm probably with the few who get shafted by this change. As someone who flies up and down to Cairns from Sydney a 4 or more times a year in J half the time and Singapore once or twice to see...
