  I am hooking up with my friend in Bali next week . His Vietjet flight from Ho Chi Minh has been cancelled (they moved him to the flight on the next day but didn’t tell him they had done so ! ) . Vietnam Airlines are now the only airline flying that day so their cash prices are extortionate . I see that Delta are offering reward seats but Virgin Atlantic website doesn’t show availability. Am i right in thinking I should be able to spend some Flying club miles with Virgin if i can see there is availability with Delta ?
  Thank you

    Delta can see availability because Vietnam Airlines is a SkyTeam partner. BUT Vietnam Airlines is not a Virgin FC partner, so you cannot spend miles on Vietnam Airlines.

    Plenty connections in JaKarta. I would look at traveloka and tiket.com

  Bengaluru (BLR) is a good India gatewaygateway for onward travel to the likes of Goa and Kerala. Unlike Mumbai and Dehli, it has only 1 terminal so transfers from international to domestic are simpler

    The original schedule has A350 Club Suite.

  Morrisons / Vrgin points has ended?

  • Eli gold says:

    My account showing until 25/03

• xcalx says:

  3 Mar3 March 07:41

  Some have had the offer 8/£1 extended

  • KBuffett says:

    3 Mar3 March 07:51

    I’ve just joined and there aren’t any instore offers available to me

    • GRIMZ says:

      What you don’t shop in M+S, Amazon etc etc. Buy Gift cards!

    • TGLoyalty says:

      3 Mar3 March 13:07

      ensure you are on the UK version. seems to default to USA if you are using a VPN etc (or perhaps on work network)

  • KBuffett says:

    3 Mar3 March 08:00

    That worked.
    Very strange.
    Thanks!

      you understood the point you need to enrol your card/s and wait 24hrs?

      • RussellH says:

        3 Mar3 March 09:41

        The confusing thing is that on my purchases list page it states “No active offer ” for Morrisons. If I click on that, though, then it states “8 miles / £1 until 25/03/2020. Collect 1 mile / £1 if spend under £20”.
        Like the whole VS Shopping thingy, it is a complete mess.

  • PJJ says:

  RE: The Langley:

    Is there an obligatory gala dinner?!

    • Miles. On point says:

      3 Mar3 March 09:16

      Haha. Not that I saw

      • Rob says:

        Speed they serve food you’d still be there on Jan 2nd …

        • DB2020 says:

          3 Mar3 March 10:22

          True! Yet OMAAT gave them a positive review. 😉

        • Rob says:

          3 Mar3 March 10:30

          It’s a very impressive hotel and, to be fair, food service has reportedly improved in speed especially as they now serve in the drawing room. Problem is that the restaurant only works if only 15% of rooms choose to eat in, which as there is nothing else walkable was a rather heroic assumption. They also take a lot of bookings from non residents.

          I think we’ll just deliveroo then Rob 😂

        • New Card says:

          Have been to Langley 3 times now and my strong advice is to eat somewhere else – The Three Oaks in Gerrards Cross is a 15 minute drive away and has exceptional gastropub food (it has a Michelin Bib Gourmand) and The Tudor Room is a 25 minute drive away and has its Michelin Star for a reason – superb.

  OT Hi, I have a relatively new supplementary Amex Gold card and while the main cardholder started getting quite a few Amex offers, I can’t see anything in my account despite that I’m using my card more frequently than the main cardholder. I already have tried adding the card to a new account but no sign of any offers. Also Amex chat didn’t offer much help either. Any suggestions? Many thanks

  • Anna says:

    We have had this situation on my OH’s BAPP for as long as I can remember (though gratifyingly, we have both got the Hilton offer – £75 off £250 spend this time – for the first time ever). I just use his card if I want to use his offer.

  OT

  • Shoestring says:

  • xcalx says:

    3 Mar3 March 08:42

  • Polly says:

    3 Mar3 March 08:42

    Skype useful here.

    • Nick_C says:

      3 Mar3 March 08:48

      Or the Ringo app

  • Benilyn says:

    3 Mar3 March 08:46

    Or google hangouts

    • sayling says:

      3 Mar3 March 09:25

      I thought Hangouts was dead for ‘normal’ users? Isn’t it only available for business GSuite users?

    • Bagoly says:

      3 Mar3 March 10:15

      or Viber

  OT – Swiss Air disputing a valid EU261 claim, if I need to who do I escalate it to? If final destination was LHR can it go to CAA?

  • Lady London says:

    3 Mar3 March 15:21

    I would do moneyclaimonline dot gov dot UK sooner than CAA but not 100% sure it’s in jurisdiction – anyone else know?

  • New Card says:

    3 Mar3 March 16:23

    Swiss are awful for this and they deny every claim no matter how valid. I remember when I tried to MoneyClaimOnline against them I struggled to find a UK address to serve proceedings against them at. I eventually used the SOP conciliation procedure which was good, free, and resulted in them paying c. 80% of my claim.

    • Jonathan says:

      3 Mar3 March 17:29

      My sister had months of to & fro with Swiss over a barn door EU261 claim. My dad ended up finding an address somewhere near Heathrow for a Swiss office which he used for MCOL. Claim settled in a few days. I’ll see if I can post address this evening or failing that in Bits tomorrow.
