Good question - redemptions on AF/KLM will definitely be possible at some point (i'm not sure about the timeline), but Air France is very, very...
No worries! Very much looking forward to the review - actually, given it's one of the last truly great 'sweetspot' redemptions (and therefore of...
Hi Flyer787 - welcome to InsideFlyer! Unfortunately I haven't had chance to try it yet (though have considered the same redemption many times!)....
Hi KB, Yep, but not good news really I'm afraid. If you happen to have an old amex charge card gold, you should be able to get 20k here:...
Depends if you've got sign up bonus minimums you need to hit, unless you otherwise spend a fair bit at home normally or have an easy manufactured...
Should still work - assuming KB means you'd get the referral points (18k each time) rather than the signup points (which are indeed, more or less,...
Excellent point - although, you can still mitigate the impact to a certain extent, thankfully:...
Yeah, definitely seems more variable now - I haven't looked properly in ages (as you say, IHG Points aren't as useful as they once were), but I...
Great point re Curve.
Yep - option 1 is what I would do. Plat cardholders can get some decent benefits at some (usually) expensive hotels by booking via the Amex Fine...

Yep, you can can credit to any of the oneworld member airlines' frequent flyer programmes (so if you were flying with BA for example, you could...
Should be fine, but to avoid any unnecessary hassle when travelling (agents aren't always as well trained as we might hope), the best thing to do...
Basically, you can transfer Amex points to Singapore Airlines' KrisFlyer programme at 1:1 rate, which can lead to some (relatively) very good...
Ah - Hi Michael then! :) Would you like to mileage run to earn status before your RTW, or would it be in addition to your RTW flights? For the...
Completely depends on what the normal cash rates each night are. For example, if there was a cheap Sunday night, it would be a waste to use points...
Haha! I actually have a confession: I transferred some Amex Points to Radisson myself just this week...
On the trust and rogue spend elements, the only thing I would say is just to be ultra ultra cautious about it - not really because of trust, but...
[ If you want hotel stays from your amex points, definitely transfer to one of the hotel partners rather than Avios. Whether Hilton, Marriott or...
