E*Trade 3000 points
E*Trade 3000 points
I guess everyone can read that banner flashing above but it looks like an easy way to make points.
3000 points for opening an account, no money needed to be deposited. Just send off the form.
The other points need to be earned through trading/brokerage.
Click here for details
Any other FF deals around at the moment?

BNE/AKL/LAX Aircraft changes during NOV 2005
To all those interested Qantas are operating 747-300s during the month of November Brisbane-Auckland-Los Angeles. 743s will operate on SUN, WED and FRI while the 744 does the rest.
This is most likely due to the 2 Class 744s undergoing a Skybed upgrade.
