VA have a slot at HND to operate. If they didn't use it they'd lose it. I guess they tried to retain it and it failed.

That only works if you assume people aren't trolling or arguing in bad faith

Autonomic commented on Citibank Rewards Points. Most Efficient Use
SYD-SIN-CDG one way = 58,500 KF + $125 or 75,000 VFF + $300 one way. So for one person return: 58,500\*2\*2.5 = 292,500 Citibank points +…

Politically motivated US politics, not even relevant to Australia. At least try to pretend you're not grifting.

Autonomic replied to PortK on Bonus 20,000 Qantas Points for First-Time Qantas Points Earning Credit Card Cardholders @ Qantas (Activation Required)
You have to earn the points into your account by 31 October.

Autonomic replied to robsworld on Bonus 20,000 Qantas Points for First-Time Qantas Points Earning Credit Card Cardholders @ Qantas (Activation Required)
You have to make a purchase that earns points. Doubt there's a minimum - just has to register as points earned on Qantas's website.

Autonomic commented on 100% Cashback at Amazon AU for New Members (Capped at $30, 5,000 Claims) @ TopCashback
I've never used Topcashback before - I've downloaded the app but I only see 15% off. Is the 100% offer only available through the browser?

I chose Aeroplan as my status airline and redeemed all points into KF with no issue.

Am I correct in saying the ecosystem voucher only applies to an accessory? The min. price is then (2750\*0.8-450-200)*0.95 = $1472.5 Or am…

I wouldn't pick Krisflyer for this card. I'm saying you'd be better off using Krisflyer program overall if you want to redeem 4x J seats on…

Autonomic replied to bonezAU on What Else I Can Churn Apart from Credit Cards?
How much do you pay a month if you're churning? I used to do this, but figure $170 boost sim for the year is worth the time saving.

Autonomic replied to Bargain-er on HSBC Star Alliance Credit Card: 50,000 Aeroplan Points ($4,000 Spend in 90 Days), $0 1st Year Fee then $450/Yr @ Air Canada
I'm sure you can also earn bulk Velocity or Krisflyer with the appropriate card too. The upside being the seats will be easier to get.

Why pick Aeroplan for this? There are no real ways to accumulate Aeroplan points in Australia. I'd suggest collecting Krisflyer (or…
