Does anyone have an informed opinion on the merits of the First Class Flyer newsletter from Matthew J. Bennett?

No-one around AFF seems to admit to actually purchasing such stuff.

The consensus seems to be that much of the information contained in such publication would be freely available on web sites such as The Australian Frequent Flyer and FlyerTalk - The world's most popular frequent flyer community .

If I have any questions I can't find here or on Flyertalk: then I just just PM Serfty.

I enrolled for a free trail for 3 months end of last year - cancelled after that- there is a lot of good info on how to maximise points, comparative airlines loyalty programs and discounted upgrades BUt is very usa centered - very little/nil info for travel to/from australia or to/from asia/europe from australia...interesting read though!

After a tip like that, serfty may need to have a very large inbox

Unfortunatelty, most of these types of things have limited relevance to Australian travellers.

I looked at the newsletter and came to the same conclusion.

I've also had a look at it but I fail to see how the amount of information that is freely avaliable here and on FT could be dwarfed by a newsletter.

Greetings,

Thanks to you all for your comments on "First Class Flyer". Using your input I have to conclude that although it may be of some use to those based in North America, especially those who do not have the time and/or inclination to conduct their own research, it is not much use to those of us based in Down-Under.
