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.

Keen to hear to hear the experiences of those who have taken up the status match available to Velocity Platinums. I am trying to decide whether to opt for Europcar privilege elite or Hertz presidents circle.

Is one more reliable than the other for perks/upgrades in Aus? What about overseas? TIA!

I’ve got top tier status with several hire companies and personally I don’t think any are really great TBH. Upgrades can be hit or miss in Australia but I reckon Sixt gives the best upgrades followed by Hertz. Hertz has been great for me in NZ but in the ME I found Europcar to be the best. I’ve had a few bad experiences with Europcar in Germany though so avoid them in Europe altogether now

Thanks for your insight!
 
I chose Europcar years ago when i first made Plat and even though i only hire cars maaaaybe once a year, I remained 'elite' for about 5 years. Now i have no status with them and continue to get upgrades (as i did this morning)...no idea why, not complaining
