  OT: 5% back at Starbucks on my PRG charge card. Cool, as never seen a Starbucks offer before. Not as cool in that it’s a one time thing and only 5% off (vs. 10% off every time for Caffe Nero!) But beggars can’t be choosers!

    I got 20% off for Starbucks valid up to a £30 credit on my BAEC.

    1F

      Please check if your local Starbucks is accepting Amex – There are many that have stopped accepting Amex.

    Bizarrely I got 20% off on my Platinum, and 5% off on my BAPP but listed twice in succession. IT glitch I guess.

      You can benefit from multiple simultaneous offers on one card. I had a small period getting 18% back at Nero over the last few months for this reason.

        Nice. Thanks for the info, I’ll give it a go.

    If it’s one time, use it to buy a gift card.

  I’ve just tried logging into my Melia rewards account with no joy. Could anyone else try and confirm if there’s a problem with the Melia website please.

    saying an error has occurred… but I’m not convinced I can remember my password!

  OT. I have the Amex Platinum. Can I refer myself for another type of Amex? I.e BA or SPG?

    Yes.

  *correction, turns out ADD-LAX is indeed beyond the range of a 787, my bad. I think this logic applied to the Toronto service or similar.

  It would be interesting if this ultimately became ADD-LOS-LAX

    I would imagine for fuel efficiency stopping as close to half way as possible is ideal. If your going to have to stop you may as well make it at the optimum point.

  I think he’ll delegate that! But if you had one of these available at an airport stopover, you’d be very happy to use it.

    There’s the Yotel thing at a few airports. I think Rob reviewed one of those. Agree, perfect for a long layover or an early morning flight.

  My partner and I flew with ET from DUB to LAX last year and the service was very good, the plane is new and the timings of the flight perfect. And we got a very favourable booking class which allowed us to earn sizeable chunk of Star Alliance miles with A3. Though it was a bit sad to see passengers from Addis who were exhausted by a long flight and were NOT let out of the plane at Dublin (which is appalling)

  Head for Points, however improbable it may sound, found out that there is more to Star Alliance than Lufthansa lounge at Heathrow Terminal 2…

  • Rob says:

    I was in the Star Alliance lounge at T2 this morning if you there, with the gang. It’s rubbish, but I knew that. Didn’t have 2 Priority Passes to get the kids in Plaza Premium though …

  Appalling in its ignorance remark, Rob! Offensive even.
