  Merry Christmas Rob and all here at HFP, thanks to this blog im 450k Avios richer this year, thanks to your alert in March im now in Dubai, flights in J and top hotel with executive benefits.

    Interested in how you get 450k ?

    Amex Plat is 35k + 18k = 53k x 2 = 106k
    BAPP is 26k + 9k = 35k x 2 = 70k

    This is short of 200k, not sure how to add another 250/300k – care to help ?

      Hey Thalay,

      I’ve booked about 34 nights on Kaligo at 3 nights =12k Avios that totals 132K Avios plus I used few sign up deals highlighted here, on top of what you mentioned

  Merry Christmas to Rob, Anika and all readers. Thanks for all the articles and all the tips!

  After several years of reading (and collecting) finally managed to get a 241 deal in J to Las Vegas.

  Happy belated Christmas all.

  In HKG right now using three free IHG accelerate nights at IC HKG. Used 241 for PEK out, HND back. Off to Macao next then Seoul for New Year and then finish in Tokyo. Using Hilton Status all the way!

  Definitely some great tips and help from here including the comments!

  Belated Happy Christmas to Rob, Anika and all HfPers! Currently in the BA (ex-bmi) lounge at GLA – first time in many years flying from this side of the Central Belt. Journey’s end is Goa, India (first visit to the country), via LHR and HYD. Amex 2-4-1 in use on the l/h sector.

  Hmmm, just been credited for my car rental a couple of weeks back. Says 700 Avios rather than 18700. I wonder if the additional points will post or what this is….. anyone seen anything yet?

    Same here wierdly I just checked out the blue and only saw 700. I’m sure they’ll post eventually.

    Merry Christmas rob and all off for a cheeky 3 days in Brussels tommorow. Sofitel Europe in a luxury room and club Europe flights for two adults and a 3 year old all for £546 in the sale a few weeks seemed a bit of a steal. Upgraded to a Suite at the sofitel Heathrow to start with aswell and I’m only Accor silver…Could be worse…

    Same here

    however, it said 8 weeks so will give it a while longer. Base points sometimes post quicker than bonuses.

    On another note anyone know who I contact to get my triple Base BA points for the offer that is on until end of Dec. Flew Finnair

      Think I found my answer. Code shares were excluded?

    • AndyR says:

      26 Dec26 December 14:40

      I thought the offer was only until 11th Dec?

  OT my Amazon order using the same Amex to use the £15 off £25 offer on 7th Amazon account was cancelled as it’s one per person. Thankfully got 6 through. Just need my dad’s card details to get one more offer.

  • Anon says:

    Has anyone had 2 different Amex MR accounts work on the same Amazon a/c or can the AMEX16SWP only be used once per Amazon a/c?

    • Yuff says:

      I tried 2 different cards on the same account and it didn’t work the second time. It worked using a different amazon account but it sounds like if I’d used the same initial card on the second amazon account it would also have worked.

      • Anon says:

        26 Dec26 December 21:26

        I did the later of those on my wife’s a/c. Can’t complain though same card got £15 off on 2 Amazon accounts.
