Three days, three hotels, a wedding anniversary and a status run - because we can!

[Flyfrequently]

Funny how things evolve, or how my mind works according to the Flyfrequently family.

We always like to celebrate our wedding anniversary, so with my Accor Plus, I booked my Free Night at Sofitel Melbourne on Collins before the program changed.
I also had a credit with Qantas for an involuntary downgrade due to equipment change that needed to be used, and of course the Amex Ultimate Travel Credit.

No rush I thought, then realised Mr Flyfrequently was 65 SC's short of retaining WP.
Along comes DSC in February and how about a MEL-BNE-MEL flight and overnighter at The Pullman?
I'm just the sort of punter that Qantas and Accor like!
So am using up QF and Amex credits, a free night and ticking over WP for him and I get a bit spoiled for 3 days.

The itinerary is today - Thursday, overnight stay at Sofitel Melbourne.
Friday fly to Brisbane and overnight at Pullman Airport.
Saturday return to Melbourne early evening and overnight at Novotel Melbourne Airport - because we can

And to wrap up Day #1, Hotel #1.
Sofitel have looked after us with an upgrade to a corner room, higher floor with bay and river views

A bottle of French sparkling and a hand written card congratulating us on our 47 years


Made it a bit of a moveable feast in the Club Lounge with a glass of Sparkling to start

It was very busy early on - Prawn Karaage, Mexican Chicken Empanadas and Vegetarian Bao Buns


So came back later towards 7pm for more prawns and cheese

Tiramisu sweet treat and a Bailey's.

Turndown service (haven't had that in awhile) chocolates
and a vial of lavender spray whilst we romantically watch Gather Round on the telly. Needless to say when I booked last September, had no idea the Blues were playing
