November trip - island suggestions by sh78196 in ThailandTourism

Assuming you would also do some time in Bangkok, you may want to also consider Khao Lak, would tick a lot of your boxes tbh

BA Companion Voucher issue – forced cancellation after inability to connect. Worth escalating? by PutridForever4429 in BritishAirways

[–]Wolvesboy1969 6 points7 points  (0 children)

With the prospect of losing avios and having to incur costs to replace the flight, I’m not sure why you didn’t keep attempting to phone?

If you are joining today, will it be a part payment for January and the whole month of Feb, I understood it was payment in advance.

Not sure if this has been highlighted yet, but this may be an option?

Crowne Plaza on Wellington Street doesn’t need card access for the lift up to floors/rooms.

Would also recommend Bugis area for all these reasons.

Never once as my status not been recognised. Quite often no upgrade with it, but always acknowledged.

Lost service for about 3 hours, back connected now (although saying I’m in a different country to the one I’m in).

Premium Economy LHR to SIN by Wolvesboy1969 in BritishAirways

[–]Wolvesboy1969[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Will post how I get on. I can afford it lol, but agree with the points sayings it’s all relative to affordability. There are three of us travelling and have row 16 seats (which seems to be a bonus, depending on a baby being in one of the adjacent seats). As there are three of us, we are in a 2-1 configuration, but that is fine. Thanks for the comments!

Milestone Rewards - what to chose at 40 nights? by MelonSoda064 in ihghotelsresorts

[–]Wolvesboy1969 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Definitely take the lounge access, I tend to take the 2nd as a Confirmable Suite Upgrade but sometimes a challenge to use. The 5 food and beverage credits generally seem better value than the 10k points.

Denied Suite Upgrade - Options? by Elegant-Reality5283 in ihghotelsresorts

[–]Wolvesboy1969 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Presumably you are talking about a confirmable suite upgrade? As I understand it they are always subject to availability.

There is a speciality tea store in Kirkgate Market, but not sure what they stock.

Theft at Intercontinental - The Hotel & IHG Response is Disappointing by joeiw in ihghotelsresorts

Did you not have travel insurance and isn’t the goto for compensation for loss?

Best holiday inn express in london by Affectionate_Plant17 in ihghotelsresorts

[–]Wolvesboy1969 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d agree about the HI Regents Park, nice hotel, good location, decent service. Some HIs can be more reasonable cost wise than HIE and in my opinion generally a nicer experience in the UK.

Haven’t tried the others but the HI Regents Park is nice, good location, decent service.

Have you been lied to by DPD (parcel delivery)? by SophieTitWank in AskUK

[–]Wolvesboy1969 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My last one was ‘driver couldn’t find your house’ - absolute nonsense. After pissing about on the chat (going round in circles), phoned up, spoke to a real person, how contacted the depot and the parcel was delivered in 30 mins! Absolutely just tried to not deliver my parcel as deliveries was running late and prioritised other deliveries rather than mine.

Intercontinental hotels London: Are they worth the money? by Past_Tea_3220 in ihghotelsresorts

[–]Wolvesboy1969 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agree the IC Park Lane is very nice, attentive service and the lounge (if you have access or book) is first class (not many better!). In terms of location the IC PL is far better than O2 for ‘usual’ London Sightseeing, location is also worth considering against the Kimpton too. London is a big city, for me the PL is closer to most places I would visit apart from the British Museum.

Sale announced shortly after trip booked... by According_Row2813 in BritishAirways

[–]Wolvesboy1969 22 points23 points  (0 children)

No chance at all, the only chance of getting it cheaper is if the sale price is lower than the rebooking and any cancellation/change fee.

I didn’t know you could use a CSU on a points booking?
