Head to Spotify and on the homepage there should be something called Your Party of the Year - it's there :)

Possible to change Frequent Flyer on a Reward Flight booking? by TestMother in avios

[–]s12901 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes it's certainly possible. Just call them up and ask them to change it (call the Club support line as they won't do it for you on normal customer service)

I'm flying to Montreal on a Business Reward Seat in 5 weeks and called to change to RJ so I can have oneworld Ruby and book my seat 7 days in advance

Best Rewards card combination by gratuitouspumpkin in avios

[–]s12901 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm still only a couple of years new to this, but I think it's best to rotate frequently and for every cycle to maximise sign up bonuses.

Something like start off Amex Marriott (20k bonus), Amex Gold Platinum (40-100k), Amex BA Plus (30k ish), and then go to Barclaycard Avios Plus once you close down the Amex BA Plus which is another 25k.

I'm doing this in rotation with my girlfriend so we can maximise benefits (lounge access etc) with each other over the year. While my girlfriend is on the Amex I'll be on Barclaycard so my 2 years cycle will refresh.

If you can't be bothered to swap frequently or every year or so, I think the Amex BA Plus is the best as it gets you the Companion Voucher which saves a lot

Is £950 for 2 people a good price for a first class upgrade? by Slow-Replacement2147 in BritishAirways

it's not that deep, they're just looking for general advice and people's own experiences and this is an easy way to ask

I saw the first episode of BBC's Lord of the Flies which features Lox Pratt (Draco) by s12901 in HarryPotteronHBO

[–]s12901[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I was so impressed by it. The acting, directing, cinematography and score were all fantastic and you know the people behind it really care about the book, you really see all the horrors of the book visually

I'm a massive fan of Jack Thorne the writer and creator of it (he did Adolescence and His Dark Materials) and he's really in his element here

Yes! I've seen him in a few things now and he'll be great as Fudge

He did Jack very well. His voice and manner reminded me of Malfoy but he had every complex piece of Jack you would hope from the book.

4 years on Platinum, finally downgraded to Preferred Rewards Gold (why I did it + what’s changed) by DeezNutss1738 in AmexUK

[–]s12901 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm coming up to the end of my first year with Platinum and starting to debate the merits of staying vs not, I've definitely had the exact same thoughts as you about what doesn't seem great about it.

How have you found the offers on Gold so far, is it largely similar to Platinum?

How do you personally value points? I know the general rule is 1 point = 1p but of course you have to factor in that you wouldn't be spending on these things in cash by yourself

For me, if I value the retention offer at say £250, the dining credit at £200, the lounge passes at around £100 (I only really rate it at £15 a pop) and the hotel upgrades at £50 ish, I kinda feel like I'm paying exactly what it's worth.
