My Credit Card, Airline & Hotel Loyalty Scheme Predictions For 2019
In December 2017, I made seven predictions relating to what I thought 2018 would bring when it came to credit cards and hotel loyalty schemes. I didn't do very well.

Review: Thai Airways Business Class Melbourne to Bangkok
After four weeks in New Zealand and Australia, it was finally time to come home.
