Discussion about bloggers sharing AV LM 'tricks' [split off from LM F and J trick]
Two tricks exposed by blogger at the ****** blog today (with screenshots!). Better book those runs ASAP before LM responds.

Was makes what he is doing even more irritating is that he doesnt seem to really know what hes talking about. He recommends to call lifemiles to book more complicated itineraries that you cant book online - something we all know is impossible to do. Not to mention that calling them to book one of these routes would be incredibly foolish.
He is basically profiting off the hard work done by many many people, without even putting in his own homework, in order to make a quick buck.

Is this a widely read blog?

Wow. That is low.
He's clearly never contributed to this thread and publishes the trick? What the heck.
I'm seriously seriously upset right now. Was planning on using this with friends soon, may not get the chance.
soltatio, you should code the site so we don't encourage page views for such unfriendly deal ending, flyertalk screwing, money making greed.
Sorry to the writer, but, this is low. Why?

This dude is spoiling it for all of us. I now will not be surprised if LM devalues their miles. Can you blame them really when you have idiot bloggers like him???

This is why we cannot share these routes openly, cos you will get people swooping in who have made no effort to work out these routes and then both profit off other peoples hard work and at the same time kill the route.
