  Hmm, anyone able to get this to work. Hitting ‘book now’ on Edge and Chrome does nothing..

  The Singapore Australia article doesn’t state what class the tickets are? Presume business not premium economy, first or economy? may wish to edit…

  “The only downside with KrisFlyer is the hard three year expiry date. You must use the miles within three years or you lose them, irrespective of your status or whatever other miles you earn in the meantime.”

  The 3-Year ‘hard expiry’ of points also applies to Lufthansa Miles & More of course.

  Turntable looks err gross.

  It’s a shame that the record player is absolute garbage. That mechanism is in every cheap non branded and “novelty” player out there.

  Ordered! Cool and different gift for my vinyl-loving friend. And he doesn’t want it, unique and limited edition and numbered things usually sell on eBay just fine…
  Good job Virgin, this is a fun and unique redemption.

    Well it’s unique redemption, I’ll give you that.
    But certainly not worth dropping 20k points on, you won’t make anything close to justifying the points loss by selling it on eBay. It’s cheap plastic and gimmicky, and will have awful sound, perfect for non music lovers everywhere.

    I’m not sure your vinyl loving friend will want to put their precious records anywhere near this thing.

      Hear hear. I saw a video where they tested the tracking force of a Crosley turntable, it was at something like 12 grams when in comparison a high end turntable and stylus will track at 1.5 grams. This Crosley will ruin a record rather quickly, which is annoying when you look at the price of new vinyl, or indeed, vintage vinyl in good condition. Cheap record players are anything but because of the carnage they cause.

  And a Qantas offer has just pooped up on Platinum too – spend £800, get £120, should they SQ deal not be for you when planning a return to Australia travel.

    Good spot, I have this on my ARCC. Fingers crossed for the usual February double status credits offer too 🙂

  If anyone is considering the record player to actually play records, watch Techmoan’s video ‘PSA – The cheap record player mechanism to avoid’ on YouTube ( youtube.com/watch?v=AXV8tXrPOR4 ) -“This £5 component (or variants of it) is used in most novelty budget record players. That’s fair enough when you’ve paid only £30 for a player to listen to some worn old records as a bit of fun.”
