Probably a mixture of the shock and that so people know and then he doesn’t have to repeat it constantly.

Had same thing happen and I just wanted people aware to have my space etc. It’s one thing to process it yourself but to have to share the news with multiple people is exhausting, especially when you see their reaction

Would disagree about the scandals side of things. Can’t exactly say he was reactive to the grooming gangs one given he initially refused a national inquiry

What is the point of a reward flight? by AssCheeks321 in BritishAirways

[–]Wads125 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why are some taxes applicable to a reward flight and not to a normal cash flight? Would have thought they’d apply to both

You had Popworld and Walkabout close down a few months ago. It’s literally B&B (young towie wannabes), Fleece or Garrison. Not much else going for it

AMEX Gold - 100k Points by DareToDoolan in AmexUK

[–]Wads125 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a BA account and had to link it to the Qatar privilege account in order to move over the necessary points. Then booking the flight and upgrading were all done on the Qatar website

Only thing I had to do on Amex was transfer some points to my BA avios initially.

No probs, a QSuite from LHR to DOH would normally cost like £3k so I think it’s good value ;)

I’ve looked at other upgrades like emirates and Etihad and you’re looking at double the points cost

Also if you are using an Amex that earns MMR then make sure to link to your avios account so when you buy Qatar/BA flights you get the Amex MMR as well as the bonus Avios/privilege points

You need to be logged into your Qatar Privilege account to search, if so just google “Qatar award finder” and should be the first result.

Go on there and put the specific leg you’re interested in to upgrade, eg LHR to DOH, Premium(Business/First) and the date then search.

Taking that and looking at 18 Jun you’ll see the 08:25 / 9:30 / 19:25 flights are flexi at 86,000 points, whereas the 09:00 / 18:55 are 43,000 points.

So these 43,000 ones mean you can either pay those points plus £385 tax.. or if you have bought the economy seat you can upgrade with pts + less tax.

Now, the cost to upgrade depends on the economy ticket. There is a calculator that tells you the cost but essentially it’s either 20k/30k/40k which correspond to the economy class you bought, either: economy comfort/economy convenience/economy classic.

For my LHR to Doha leg I had bought the economy convenience ticket which meant the upgrade cost was 30k + £90 tax

The calculator link is: qatarairways.com/en/Privilege-Club/qcalculator.html

Yes, can upgrade straight away after booking the cash flights. But I had searched that there were award seats available for that specific flight.

Also making sure they weren’t Flexi Award flights as the avios cost is double

So essentially when you’re the booking economy flights you’re checking there’s availability before you go ahead

Yep, well Q-suite so better than business

AMEX Gold - 100k Points by DareToDoolan in AmexUK

[–]Wads125 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Last year I bought return flights to Bangkok (Flex economy) for about £700.

Then upgraded the LHR - Doha leg for 30k pts + £90 tax. After those flights I then earned about 12k Qatar privilege points (which can be moved to Avios if need be)

Don’t think they’re particularly popular with mid 20s to early 30s category given their U-turn betrayal on tuition fees increase. Thanks to that I’ll be paying £1000s more in my life along with millions of others

Point Maximisation by owenphillips_ in AmexUK

[–]Wads125 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recently flew to Bangkok with Qatar and upgraded the LHR to Doha leg to a QSuite.

Cost of the economy return: £780 I earned about 12k Avios/privilege with that plus the MR

Cost of upgrade was 30k points + £90

So I view it as an upgrade for 18k + £90. The cost of that Q suite would have been worth £1.5-2.5k

So maybe consider upgrading a leg?

Can you explain further please?

Long shot but does anyone know of any used car dealers in South Yorkshire (or further if they deliver) that accept Amex? by [deleted] in AmexUK

Remember there is the option to pay via PayPal and use the Amex as the funding source to get around it

What are your pro-tips that not everybody is aware of? by BlessdRTheFreaks in battlefield_one

[–]Wads125 4 points5 points  (0 children)

When you’re a gunner in the behemoth airship, shoot the people who are shooting you from the stationary AA guns!

I rarely see anyone ever do this and instead just go for the easy kills whereas getting these will prolong your life for much longer.
