  Gold status would earn you 50 points per $, as you normally get 25.

  Hi, I have been trying to log in to the forum today. I have reset my password and tried on my laptop and on my phone but I am getting an ‘ERROR: Please solve Captcha correctly’ notification ‘ Can anyone help?

    To add to my message – there is no Captcha that I can visibly see to solve..

      You didn’t link your forum login to Curve did you?

      This is a weird error that happens when you trigger our web security package. We have been trying to get to the bottom of this since Christmas with no joy. The only ‘official’ Captcha on the site is on the forum registration page, which you are not on. We’ve found that is good enough – stop bots registering and they can’t post anyway, so we don’t need a captcha elsewhere.

  Might try out the Palazzo Montemartini Rome with this. Anyone had any experience with it?

  Getting 1p per mile for a flight may be easy but getting tickets to the final may not. And if you have lots of miles, why not? It is a chance to see 1/4 of a quadruple.

    I paid £30 to see Rotherham at Wembley last month, plus £10 for the kids 🙂

    4-2 after extra time, with Time Vine and the remaining Chuckle Brother as guests of honour. I doubt 250k Skywards miles can top that.

    Can probably buy a ticket off a tout for £200ish

    • Bob says:

      Face value is over £200 in parts of the stadium which is a joke as it is.

  • TGLoyalty says:

    £2500 of miles for a couple of standard seats is so over the top it’s unbelievable. A tout will sell you a pair of club Wembley tickets for that.

    I think the final will be £400-500 each via touts until very close to the date.

  Re Air Canada.. you’ve missed out Toronto -Edinburgh route this year

  • Rob says:

    23 Apr23 April 09:46

    Hmmm …. that list is from Air Canada’s press release 🙂

  Air Canada are also operating a London-Halifax service from 1st May. Outbound 10:05, think it’s 4 days a week.

  Return is a daytime flight at 11:00, arriving into Heathrow at 21:00.

    Was intersted in this as zoom used to fly via Halifax to Montreal back in the day. I couldn’t find this route on google flights and looking on the air canada site i can now see why. It’s a 737MAX 2 class plane with no business class. Even premium economy on that route is pricing at £1900 return in July. Canadian destinations are such a rip-off that they remain the last bastion of good value for avios for our family (who have family in Montreal).

      I was looking at June, £420 return in economy.

      But then I spotted Air Transat are flying directly to YQB for £380 from Gatwick with an Airbus.

  Thanks for your article on the semi finals. I was able to get two fantastic seats for my son and his girlfriend, in the Chelsea section. Front row on halfway line. I’ll not be bidding for the final!

  Based on an admittedly small number of test bookings for some upcoming stay possibilities, you will get double points at any chosen Radisson hotel but not necessarily the sale rate reduction. Also, rates overall are lower on the website than on the app.

    Just looked at a stay in Karlsruhe. Double points only on the specific Double points rate, which is non-refundable and includes breakfast. Room only, standard points, and cancellable up the day before arrival is £27+ cheaper.
