Struggling to use your Frequent Flyer Points?

Frequent Flyer Concierge takes the hard work out of finding award availability and redeeming your frequent flyer or credit card points for flights.

Using their expert knowledge and specialised tools, the Frequent Flyer Concierge team at Frequent Flyer Concierge will help you book a great trip that maximises the value for your points.

You can change Kris Flyer redemption nominees but I had to wait until 6 months had passed after I flew 2 friends to Europe as a one off. You have to let them fly too before you switch them out.
I think the fee to change was $30 per nominee.
The nominee does not need to be a relative so I can book a girlfriend for my son to travel with or stuff like that.
We both love the Dragon cc to run up Kris Miles.
I have never switched miles and do not plan to do this ever.
 
Transferred my points, don’t need to use them for 2+ years but better loaded at Krisflyer before Velocity gets devalued.

Transferred my points, don’t need to use them for 2+ years but better loaded at Krisflyer before Velocity gets devalued.

Leaving my run late but pondering transferring some points tonight. I’m hesitatant due to expiry and I already have a ton of QF points to burn (> 1mil) as well as VA (~1m)....

I’d keep some for VA redemptions but maybe transfer some for SQ (or *A) J / F to Europe (1x 2 PAX). Any hints on a min/max number of VA points to transfer?
 
I am helping Mrscove with her Kris Miles Account as she has some getting close to expiry.
 
Banked in 400k KrisFlyer last night, leaving a small Velocity balance for some dom flights and J to hkg.
 
For those worried about expiry, surely you would just transfer the miles back to Velocity if that became a risk? You have 36 months to use them with SQ anyway, so I can't imagine it's too serious a risk.

Except you get hit with /1.55 that direction too
 
I’m 400k SQ points richer now. So, anyone know if the SQ online store sells toasters?
 
I transferred velocity points over today . I now have 156k kris flyer and 300 velocity points to use . Keeping my fingers in both pies
 
Transferred about half over to KF as prob will use SG for Europe flights and VA for USA flights (upgrades etc).

Much better availability on SG generally i've found for my required flights.

Hi Cove, I would very much like to hear your Dragon cc technique. Please feel free to post in the AFF member section if more appropriate.

I transferred 376,000 velocity points to SQ yesterday, which I worked out as 48 VA trips BNE-SYD or 32 BNE-MEL. But, I chose the SQ to get OZ-Europe J trips.
 
I'm overseas for another week and have not bothered to transfer any points out to SQ.

Will try to get some VA redemptions to HKG but don't think that will be too easy to get for 3 people.

The 'technique' Cove has perfected is to 1) start a company; 2) grow the company to the point of having millions of dollars in expenses per month (or quester), and; 3) pay those liabilities with credit cards. Elementary my dear :);)
