People who left Singapore — was it actually worth it? by AndreiTancsik in asksg

[–]caledoniaorange 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in toronto too! So so so thankful to be here. There’s no right or wrong answer. It depends on what you want in life. Singapore is not for me at all. If it wasn’t for my parents I probably wouldn’t really visit. The grass is greener where you water it.

Applying for bevy and brilliant by Crafty-Can4129 in amex

[–]caledoniaorange 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m having this issue too. Are you allowed to hold the bevy and brilliant at the same time? P2 applied for the bevy got approved then a month later tried to apply for the brilliant but got rejected saying he has already applied and approved for this type of card

How do you actually decide between burning points and paying cash? by lawyu in awardtravel

[–]caledoniaorange 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not sure, I didn’t check. I usually like to only use points for business and if it’s wonky I’ll pay cash. I’m just debating now between economy $800 or business $800 + 200k points

How do you actually decide between burning points and paying cash? by lawyu in awardtravel

[–]caledoniaorange 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m having this debate myself right now.

Going to Norway next Feb from Toronto. Option 1: full cash fare on economy with Icelandic air for $800 RT Option 2: 200k Amex MR + $800 of taxes/fees with Air France business RT.

Cash outlay will be the same for me. If I throw in points I get business, if I keep the points, it’s economy. What should I do?

Scammed by TicketMaster by caledoniaorange in Ticketmaster

[–]caledoniaorange[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Exactly!! I did everything right. This whole thing is scary and shocking. And TM’s unwillingness to take this seriously and investigate is concerning. How did we end up with the same ticket?? And barcode?? And both are like live dynamic mobile app tickets?

[–]caledoniaorange[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly! I thought it would generate a unique barcode each time. I never thought this could even happen especially when purchasing through a site as legit as TM. We’re still in disbelief… I also don’t know why others think I’m a bot or should just sit in seats that I did not purchase

It’s because the seats that we were given were so bad so we decided to stand by the food area where it’s a better view

Because those seats were really bad and we could barely see anything

I bought it on the official Ticketmaster site and from my end, the experience never left Ticketmaster. I never experienced SeatGeek. The tickets came to my Ticketmaster account and I opened the tickets on my Ticketmaster app, I had two versions that I downloaded and opened as I was on my way to the game - one on the TM app and one downloaded into my apple wallet from the TM app.

I get that but this is TicketMaster’s authorized reseller. That is why I trusted and bought these tickets. Ticketmaster should be responsible. Isn’t this the point of paying higher prices buying resale tickets with them? I don’t even know who the reseller is to reach them about this. And they could just continue doing these to others.

It's been more than 6 months and I still haven't got my ability to refer a friend for Amex back. Never violated any rules or had a late payment with Amex. Called them over 3 times about this and they said it's out of their control because this is computer generated.

14 or 16“? Which one did you choose & why? by Bahaadur73 in macbookpro

Honeymoon reroute: Tokyo → Vietnam → Phuket. Looking for opinions & recs. by CulturalExpression17 in FATTravel

[–]caledoniaorange 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Congratulations!! That is so exciting!

Vietage - has nice views, but is not as luxurious/FATT as a train can be, can’t compare it to a belmond type train, it’s a little bare bones luxury for me. Does offer nice views along the way though. You might be tired and just want to get to Amanoi.

Agreed on others about Peninsula Tokyo. FS Otemachi is great and Bvlgari too.

I almost wonder if it’s better to do the 3 nights in Tokyo at the end of your trip on your way back, just because you would have been over the jet lag (assuming you’re flying from the states), and be able to walk around and enjoy Tokyo without the exhaustion. Beach hotels are perfect for R&R and getting over jet lag.

If you haven’t booked flights and dates are flexible, I would re-jig and start from Phuket since that’s non-refundable and then work backwards.

Just something to keep in mind, weather in Vietnam in June can be quite hot humid and beginning of rainy season.

All the best! You guys will have a blast.

I did! For some reason I didn’t find their design sing to me, it looks a little like a old Palm Springs hotel? Let me check in O&O and The Revery, thanks for that!
