www.discountlondon.co.uk used to do a 1st Class Day Trip on Eurostar for only about £135 including lunch in Paris. Whereas 56,000 air miles can buy over five return trip tickets to Australia on Air Miles in Economy.:eek:

Also Tesco Clubcard Deals do Paris in 2nd Class for about £25 return.:cool:

Do you think that its worth it collecting points for the eurostar as i assume the trains will never be fully booked? Opinions appreciated.

I was going to book a flight yesterday for me, my husband, and 2 children to New York in August 2010. I performed a search on the Airmiles website thinking that, as it's nearly a year away, availability would not be a problem. The outward flight was fine (14 August 2010) but the return date 2 weeks later kept showing "check other options" and there was no miles only return flights at all during the last week of August until September 2010. I rang Airmiles to query this and thought that perhaps it is too early to book these flights and they may not have been loaded on the system but the lady on the phone assured me that if I am being offered return flights in September 2010 as an alternative, then that means the ones in August are sold out. Can this be right? I am sure that this was not he case a year ago and that there was lots of availability in August. Do you think that Airmiles are offering very few flights (or none at all) on certain dates in August as it is the time when the flights would have been the most expensive if paying cash? Anyone any ideas?
